About John Muir Outpatient Behavioral Health
Set in the inner Bay Area, John Muir Health offers day and intensive outpatient (IOP) behavioral health care for children 4+, adolescents, and adults. They admit clients voluntarily and involuntarily, and they provide as much flexibility to roam during the stay as possible. Their psychiatric team works with outside medical providers, and they can optionally bring in a chaplain.
Their outpatient programs are for clients who have completed a residential or emergency hospital stay. Treatment looks somewhat different for clients 12, 13-17, and 18+. They have separate adolescent and adult treatment tracks. For clients under 18, John Muir emphasizes family therapy more and works with schools to ensure clients can continue their studies during treatment. Parents and guardians participate in weekly support groups once a week from 8:15 a.m. to 9:45 a.m.
John Muir Health's behavioral health program treats clients with anxiety, depression (including post-partum depression), bipolar disorder, ADHD, anger, eating disorders, grief, mood swings, oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), psychosis, self-harm and suicidality, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorders, trauma, co-occurring alcohol and drug addictions, and more.
John Muir can provide a harm-reduction approach to addiction, focused on helping clients with their primary mental health concerns.
Clients can download MyChart to track their care notes during and after treatment, as well as to pay for care. John Muir posts good-faith estimates through MyChart and allows clients to contest bills that are $400+ more than expected.
