Discovery Mood & Anxiety Program Los Alamitos

A Transformative Journey with Discovery Center My teenage daughter recently completed the PHP the IOP at the Discovery Center and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the experience. From the moment she was enrolled, I felt a warmth and understanding that was immediately comforting. Expert and Caring Staff: The team at Discovery Center is exceptional. The therapists and counselors are not only highly qualified but also incredibly empathetic. They tailor the program to fit individual needs, ensuring that everyone feels seen and heard. Their dedication to each participant's journey is evident in every interaction. My daughter spent so much time there, it was inevitable that she would make friendships and relationships even above and beyond the patient-therapist roles. My daughter would come home many times with stories about the staff members that went above and beyond their duties and would show how much they genuinely care about her and other clients. Community and Support: The sense of community within this program is something special. Group sessions were designed to be safe spaces where sharing was encouraged, but never forced. She made connections and the peer support was invaluable. Knowing she was not alone in her struggles changed everything. Accessibility: The program's structure was accommodating, with options for both PHP and IOP sessions, making it incredibly accessible. The flexibility was crucial for my family as it allowed us to balance the program with our daily responsibilities. The staff is beyond understanding with the clients/children with drop-offs and pick-ups, knowing that we all have lives outside of the program. Sustainability: Beyond the duration of the program, Discovery Center offers resources and follow-up support to ensure that the positive changes are sustainable. From workshops to alumni groups, there's a clear commitment to long-term mental health. Personal Growth: I've noticed significant changes in my daughter - increased self-awareness, better emotional regulation, and a newfound confidence. This program didn't just help her cope; it helped her thrive. In conclusion, the Discovery Center has been a beacon of hope and healing in my daughter's life. I would recommend this program to families seeking not just relief but also a path to a happier, healthier child. Thank you, Discovery Center, for not only giving my daughter the tools to manage her mental health but for also enriching her life in ways my wife and I never imagined.

This program saw me at my lowest points. Before coming, I didn't think I'd make it to the age I am now. I was in and out of their IOP and PHP programs, and thanks to the kindness of the therapists and staff, I'm now doing so much better. Recovery is scary, and therapy for 3/6 hours a day is daunting, but ultimately this program not only changed but saved my life.

Although the mental health battle is never over, after 6 months here, I was sad to leave. It's now been almost 2 years, I never thought I'd make it to adulthood and big thanks to Laura and Brittany, I'm thriving. Online, the building and idea of 3-6 hour therapy seems depressing, but in real life, it's life changing and interesting every single day.

Discovery Behavioral Health - Mood and Anxiety Program. If you can avoid to work there. Please do it. Unpleasant place. First place, I never felt uncomfortable working there. I was trapped by their fancy name and site. After a few months of working there, I realized the fakes. I believe the person who wrote a review when says is filled with favoritism and retaliation. I experienced that with the program’s president and regional director. Both are possessing a macromanaging mentality combine with poor judgment. I was traumatized and terrified by their action against me and other staff. They are making their decision according to lies and dishonesty opinion from manipulative staff who are favor staff. Every time I remember what they did to me and how they treated me. I wanted to throw up. I wish you bad karma and bad luck both of you for what you did to me and other. I hope you never find peace in your life. it is very unprofessional and evil to try destroy people's lives and reputations. I regret to work for this agency. Unfortunately, this program runs by unprofessional managers. This program is full of lies, unfairness, unprofessional attitude, and behavior. Easily you can be subject to retaliation and mistreatment. They are not supportive to their staff at any time. Easily you can get burned out. The outreach program is another story of unskilled, inexperienced, and unprofessional.They need to be trained and redirected. Need to learn first what outreach means and the goals of outreach before that learn how to be passionate and have the heart to serve people.this week I tested what a real supervisor and manager support means. The sense you missed when I was work over there. You to check that because they are lacking those skills. West of time and money. They do not deserve even one star. Is a disappointed company notpromising anything good for your future? Don't waste your time. Favoritism and distrust destroy this service and low standards managers such as the program president Regional Director, and the HR staff director. Over a year since I left this company, I feel happier and more relaxed. I can see the difference between this unkind company and where I work now. Big different. An extremely unhealthy place to be associated with. Just today I remember the HR director who is now the head employees relationship department or whatever. she is never taking the employee complaint seriously. She sided with bad people. she is unfair and not taking the employee's complaint seriously. Extremely unhealthy environment. Shame on you CEO you did see all that and never intervene to protect the agency from this kind of behavior and get rid of this dysfunctional person who destroyed people's souls and dignity. God is here. Justice will serve one day. Very toxic environment. Most weak and Disconnected management and managers. Those two ladies.Amy and Traci. I don’t know where you are in life currently. What you did to us is still fresh and will never be forgotten. Discussed program and questionable management. Micromanaging and distributing services are run by unskilled managers and leaders. Their styles are questionable. Two ways from this questionable place trauma is still there. One day will it heals. those managers ladies they don't know what are they doing. Working in place for over 20 means you are good. But the opposite. Because exposed to different. You fail to run this place.they are very mentally and emotionally abusive management. They support the bad and unprofessional behavior of some of their employees. Unfortunately, they are racist and unkind people. Bad attitudes and behavior have been tolerated in this company. Be careful when applying to work there. worse supervisor worse leaders. I am just reviewing and cleaning my office sat home I found some old documents from this discussing company. Traci and Amy you are both most rudest and discussing leaders I have to work under them. You are unprofessional behavior it costs me a lot. God will punish you one day for me and other you destroyed their lives.

Here right now it’s pretty sigma Maddie is amazing give her a raise and I love all my pookie bears please don’t dox me, Laura if you see this hi

didn’t actually go inpatient but the lady giving me the final assessment on the phone tried to diagnose me with bipolar and compared me to sheldon from the big bang theory in the span of an hour when i brought up the idea that i might have autism

Went here for about almost 2 years in between the iop and php programs they provided. In coming here I have met some of the most influential people I have ever met and a life long support system. I have seen therapist’s come and go but ultimately the program taught me incredibly valuable skills that i take with me everywhere i go. Truly has been the most helpful treatment center to note of. Staff is incredibly supportive and friendly and have very healthy theraputic relationships with their patients This is the first place I recommend to those who are struggling because it genuinely helped me find myself. Amazing tools provided for self esteem and anxiety, depression, and maladaptive behavior all around. These people really care and take time to personalize client’s individual needs. Special thanks to the program director who had a very big impact on me ♥️
