Understanding the Scope of Mental Health in Van Nuys
Los Angeles County faces a widespread mental health crisis, with 1 in 5 adults experiencing a mental health condition annually. Depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders are among the most common, while serious illnesses like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder remain a growing concern. Youth are equally affected, with 13% of children and adolescents carrying a diagnosed mental health condition.
Anxiety impacts roughly 16% of LA adults, fueled by the city’s high costs of living and economic pressures, while major depression affects around 12%, rates that climb even higher among those in poverty. Serious mental illnesses, which significantly disrupt daily functioning, affect 3-4% of the adult population and encompass conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and severe depression.

How We Treat Mental Disorders

- Therapy: Our licensed therapists use proven approaches including CBT, DBT, EMDR, trauma-informed care, group therapy, family therapy, equine therapy, and holistic modalities.
- Psychiatry: Our board-certified psychiatrists conduct thorough evaluations and work collaboratively with each client. Recommendations are thoughtful, not rushed, and integrated within the broader plan.
