Why Olivos

Why Olivos?

We can help

Our psychiatrists, therapists and case managers understand that severe mental illness can be debilitating for all family members.

We apply effective and innovative treatment approaches that empower and support individuals and families to move toward resilience, wellness and independence.

 

We use evidence-based practices to design personalized, adaptable and effective care plans.

 

We meet our clients where they are and partner with them and their families to create goals and roadmaps that consider what is best for everyone impacted.

Our practitioners work as an integrated team to deliver a practical, approachable alternative to traditional outpatient care and a natural transition from inpatient care.

We offer a pathway for clients and their families through what can be a confusing, stressful time, giving the gift of peace and comfort to the household.
