About Northridge Hospital Medical Center - Behavioral Health
Established in 1955, the hospital delivers behavioral health services to adolescents, adults, and seniors experiencing conditions like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and mood disorders. Its short-term programs emphasize crisis stabilization through inpatient care, day treatment, and an intensive outpatient program (IOP).
Support That Encourages Growth
Their approach blends medical oversight with evidence-based therapies that help patients build healthier thoughts and behaviors. Clients take part in cognitive-based education groups, recreational therapy, art therapy, and process groups, while also meeting with a psychiatrist for ongoing support. This mix of structure and personalized guidance helps patients manage symptoms and gain tools that support long-term well-being.
Dedicated Adolescent Support
The program offers a hospital-based adolescent inpatient behavioral health service for the San Fernando Valley community. The team involves both patients and families in treatment planning to strengthen communication and improve outcomes. Patients benefit from coordinated therapeutic support, consistent psychiatric oversight, and a gradual transition process that prepares them for continued care beyond the program.
