Evolve Teen Outpatient Treatment Center - San Diego

My daughter’s mental health symptoms showed up at age thirteen. It seemed like overnight we went from having a typical child who enjoyed spending time with family, playing with friends, reading books, going on outings to just wanting to die. It was a very scary and confusing place for our family. I tried and tried to find providers who could help her. She went to multiple providers and programs with little change. After our insurance changed, we were able to start treatment at Evolve. From the very beginning, I felt that we were in good hands. The staff are well trained and the program is well designed. My daughter’s behaviors and our family’s communication patterns changed dramatically. After four years of feelings as if I had lost my daughter, I have my daughter back. I’m grateful that the providers at Evolve have extensive knowledge and experience with teens with mental health issues, and we finally got the help we needed!

Evolve did wonders for our teen. I'm sure it's hard for them to get reviews as this is such a private matter. The whole process is utterly heartbreaking. You don't end up here because you wanna be here. That being said they worked with us as a family so well. I really liked that. They involve you in the treatment and try to ensure that you will have the tools necessary to help your child continue on their path of healing. The path is BUMPY, and it heartbreaking. I remember graduating out of program thinking I don't know if I am ready to do it without them. They helped us navigate tough topics and issues our teen would shut down on us with. Helped us see each other's sides. Helped our teen see themeself. When we graduated out were ok and we did move forward on our own. As a family we are so thankful for the staff at Evolve and the forever impact they have made on our child's life. The skills they shared, our kiddo still uses. Our kiddo really had a connection to the staff. There was also a pet lizard that meant a lot to our kiddo. There's so much I could say about this place. But the biggest is just two words FOREVER THANKFUL.

Evolve PHP and IOP helped our family in so many ways. My child is now home, regulating independently for the first time in 5 years and has learned how to enjoy life. Thank you Evolve for all your support and guidance!

Very informative, educational, practical and helpful to both parents and mental health professionals

Worst experience ever. Attempting to get care for my son and was denied twice once for RTC and once for PHP due to the very symptoms they promote on their website that they treat. deceptive marketing and doesn’t actually help kids in need.

Called this place as I was looking for somewhere for my son. I asked if they had a psychiatrist on staff & was told yes. I said we weren’t interested in medications but I did want my son evaluated. The girl on the phone told me “most of our patients are required to be on medication for insurance purposes.” I was horrified that she actually said that out loud. This is predatory, illegal, and insurance fraud. Strongly advise prospective families to question this during admission and exercise extreme caution in their prescribing practices if your child does attend.

A wonderful program with amazing staff. Adam and Jordan made a big impact on our teen and us. They helped our teen through a real dark, difficult time and our child is on a better path and our family too. I would highly recommend Evolve and its team. Many thanks and appreciation with a grateful heart.

pretty good i like the staff there
