About Western Youth Services – Santa Ana, California

Western Youth Services is an organization that helps individuals aged 21 years and younger. This program can provide children and their families specialized behavioral health care support so they can lead a healthy and positive life.

Their Santa Ana, California clinic primarily focuses on supporting children, teens, and young adults through their mental health struggles. They can also address symptoms you’ve had with substance use as well, though, this is not the primary focus of their recovery services here.

If you do need more robust substance abuse treatment, you can get referred to different agencies or communities throughout the clinic here.

The Santa Ana Western Youth Services Clinic accepts Medi-Cal coverage.

You’ll find that the approach to treatment here at Western Youth Services is very much rooted in evidence based therapy. Some of these therapies include cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavioral therapy.

Motivational interviewing is also a strong focus here because it helps empower children and teens to build the recovery skills they need to make stronger, healthier life choices.

They also have trauma informed services here to address traumatic experiences that have impacted your life as well.

There’s a strong focus on helping reunify families and they do this through approaches like Parent Child Care and Parent Child Interaction Therapy. Having a strong family support system allows children to know that they are supported when they experience difficult circumstances in life. This can help minimize the risk of a mental health episode as well as reduce a teen’s chances of turning to substance use for self-medication.
