Evolve Calabasas Residential Treatment for Teens
Calabasas, California
At Evolve Calabasas, teens live on-site in a beautiful private home in the heart of Monte Nido, a peaceful neighborhood in the wonderful community of Calabasas, nestled in the hills of western Los Angeles County between Topanga State Park and Malibu Creek State Park. This residential treatment location offers round-the-clock supervision, support, and treatment for teens struggling with substance abuse, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, self-harm, and behavioral issues. Greenspace dotted with cypress, willow, and poplar trees frame comfortable outdoor recreation areas accented by vibrant red roses and hydrangea. The peaceful atmosphere and state-of-the-art amenities make our teens feel safe, comfortable and completely at home.
The residential treatment experience at Evolve is unique. Our centers are the opposite of a cold, clinical, hospital environment. They’re designed to put our teenagers at ease, so they can focus on what matters: treatment and recovery. Our residents feel like they’re in a personal, individualized recovery center designed to meet their specific therapeutic needs – because that’s exactly where they are. Treatment can be hard work, but we know that in the right environment, with the right people, our teens can develop practical coping skills, learn about themselves, have fun, and build enriching new relationships. We encourage personal growth and lay the foundation for sustainable, lifelong recovery.
Custom Treatment for Mind, Body, and Soul
Our teens receive solution-focused, data-driven, evidence-based, results-oriented therapy. Everything we do is geared toward changing behavior and finding the right combination of therapy and support. Since no two teenagers are alike, no two treatment plans are alike. During the admissions process, we conduct a thorough assessment, establish a baseline, and create an Individual Recovery Plan based on specific needs and goals.
