Crestwood Behavioral Health - Bakersfield

programs

Crestwood Behavioral Health Center
Mental Health Rehabilitation Center

At the Crestwood Behavioral Health Center, community integration and dual recovery are key tenants. Community reintegration is designed for those consumers who need help developing some of the basic life skills that will allow them to return to their communities. We accomplish this through classes, therapy, community service and peer mentorship. Many consumers participate in a prevocational training program. We also offer an innovative and compassionate program, based on the 12-step principles, that is specially designed for individuals with a dual diagnosis of a mental health issue and drug or alcohol dependency.
