The ASC treatment group is a collaboration of licensed mental health providers who have been working together for more than 43 years. We employ evidence-based practice (EBP) models, and our programs provide a variety of treatment methods with the goal of reducing symptoms, creating healthy relationships, a sense of dignity, healthy leisure time management, self-determination and productive living.

We operate distinct residential and outpatient treatment environments including an urban residential center in east Los Angeles, a rural treatment center on 15 acres alongside the Kern River just outside the city of Bakersfield, and an innovative day services center in North Hollywood, California.

We are a group of multi-disciplined mental health professionals dedicated to the provision of EBP services to individuals diagnosed with major mental illnesses. ASC focuses on integrated services for the whole person developing, strengthening, and maintaining appropriate adaptive behaviors. We assist clients in managing and gradually eliminating maladaptive behaviors and illness symptoms in supportive, creative respectful settings. It is the expressed intent of the ASC-Treatment Group to offer a rich, supportive environment, with the collaborative services one would expect of a homelike residential setting. ASC employs a robust staffing model to include mental health, medical and behavioral health professionals.
