The Bel Air Home

Bel Air Home improves quality of life by healing the mind and finding solutions for clients where other programs have failed. They serve clients in need of intensive, medical-oriented treatment for complex mental illnesses like major depression with suicidal ideation, anxiety with panic, bipolar with mania, thought disorders, schizophrenia, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and trauma. From their peaceful residence in the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains, they give the highest degree of personalized care and 1-on-1 attention. Serving only a handful of inpatient clients at a time, their medical director oversees each case to ensure there are no gaps in care.

Choose Intensive Support for Lasting Change

During the average 14 to 28-day stay, Bel Air Home makes sure each patient has the tools needed to manage their mental health diagnosis in everyday life once treatment is completed. Their medical team includes a psychiatrist, neurologist, addiction medicine expert, pain management expert, internist, therapists, and case manager who collaborate on each case. They recognize the complex interplay between biological, psychological, and social factors in mental wellness, and craft intensive yet flexible treatment plans to meet these needs. Each client is provided many hours of group and individual therapy every day of the week by expert clinicians. Clients see a physician 4 times per week. The center integrates holistic methods to complement traditional treatments, including yoga, acupuncture, meditation, and art therapy. They also offer nutrition counseling, medical lab testing, and optional ketamine and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) treatments.

Reach a Better Outcome with a Correct Diagnosis

Clients leave Bel Air Home functioning at a much higher level, thanks to a comprehensive assessment that ensures precise, personalized care. The intake process includes an in-depth review of medical history, previous treatments, and current symptoms, alongside psychological evaluations and advanced diagnostics. This approach enables the clinical team to fully understand each client’s unique mental health needs. Many clients arrive on complex medication regimens, and through careful assessment, clinicians identify essential medications while minimizing those causing side effects. For those transitioning from psychiatric hospitalization or with complex medical needs, Bel Air Home offers supportive, specialized step-down care with multiple psychiatric services.

Continue Making Progress After Treatment

Bel Air Home is committed to helping each client achieve lasting recovery beyond their 2-5 weeks of treatment. Ongoing support and resources include regular follow-up sessions, access to support groups, and personalized wellness plans.
