Our Approach

I've had anxiety my whole life, and since it's been so bad, I've been unable to acquire a good education or a career, so I've had to rely on my parents for financial support. Because of this, I've been dependent on them. Because I am an adult now, my parents have decided to put me in this facility so that I may work on being more independent. I am overjoyed that they decided to go with the Meadowglade.

The Meadowglades staff not only understands the many different levels of mental health disorders, they understand that each person is different and the approach needs to be specific for them. I went for help with my Bipolar Disorder because my traditional therapy just wasn't quite enough. The addition of more experiential therapy, like yoga and aquatic modalities has really helped my mental health.

L.A. Outpatient is an amazing treatment center. The quality of care from the amazing people that work there is a major part of what changed my life and the way I think about my recovery. I had zero coping skills before coming here which is how I ended up in this mess in the first place.

Our niece has been dealing with anxiety since before the pandemic and had started taking a turn down a scary path. We were there with her parents when reaching out to Beachside and what a tremendous help they have been in helping her deal with her anxiety and substance abuse. They have an amazing team there to support and who are dedicated to their clients.

I am so happy with the programs that Hillcrest has. My daughter has depression and the things we have tried so far were not really helping long term. Like many, we did our homework and found this very nice facility. Everyone is very friendly and caring here. The rooms are nice, even the meals look delicious. It took a little work, but she is engaging with the counselors and other people and is really making some headway. It will still be some time, but I am thrilled with her progress, and her positive attitude.

Hillcrest is a wonderful facility for your teen. They helped me help my son with his behavioral issues stemming from several fears. The people that work there are wonderful and the Counselors and Doctors are great. He has learned effective ways to handle situations without getting upset. They really helped us out, I was out of ideas. I am really thrilled watching his progress. I would recommend Hillcrest for anyone who has a young family member in need of help.

My daughter has never had the best relationship with mealtime, but I never imagined it would become a full-blown eating disorder. I am very grateful to the staff at Los Angeles Outpatient for giving her a safe environment to get better.

The team at Beachside is so attentive to our daughter’s needs. She was struggling and we thought she would perk back up once in-person school started, but she didn’t and her grades were declining. Reaching out to Beachside was a great step and they’re already seeing improvements. So happy things are looking up.

Without Hillcrest’s compassionate staff, my daughter would not be with me today. They helped her gain the skills she needed to manage her depression and helped me learn to work with her. We still have rough days, but now we can cope with them when they come. Thank you, Hillcrest!

I’ve been on and off different antidepressants for the last 15 years. When it seemed like the newest one wasn’t helping, my regular doctor suggested TMS and referred me to the Los Angeles Outpatient Center. It’s been about two months and TMS has helped so much. My symptoms have dramatically decreased, and I’ve had a much better quality of life.
