Located on North Mission Road, Behavioral Health Services Lincoln Heights offers
outpatient treatment, mental health programs, DUI and
MAT programs, and the Recovery Incentives Program, all designed to support individuals on their path to recovery.
The center offers outpatient substance abuse treatment tailored to individual needs, focusing on relapse prevention and integrating recovery tools into daily life. Programs typically last between 3 to 9 months, with sessions occurring 1 to 5 days per week, depending on the client's needs.
In addition to substance use treatment, the center offers mental health services for adults facing challenges beyond substance use. These services include assessments and evaluations by board-certified psychiatrists, medication management, and individual and
group therapy conducted by licensed therapists. This integrated approach addresses co-occurring mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder.
The DUI Program at High Gain Westchester serves individuals convicted of driving under the influence, providing educational classes, group sessions, face-to-face interviews, and support meetings. The DUI medication assisted treatment (MAT) program offers additional services for those with opioid or polysubstance use disorders, including education, screenings, treatment referrals, and counseling support.
BHS participates in the Recovery Incentives Program, offering Medi-Cal recipients gift cards valued up to $599 as incentives for abstaining from stimulant use, as verified by negative drug test results. The program provides tangible rewards to support clients in their recovery journey.
Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Behavioral Health Services Lincoln Heights Recovery Center provide structured pathways to evidence-based care.
