Crestwood Behavioral Health - Solano

overview

Crestwood’s four programs in Solano are based on the company’s commitment to providing mental health consumers a continuum of care that firmly puts them on the road to recovery. Additionally this campus offers an intensive program focused on Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, commonly known as DBT.  DBT is a form of therapy developed by Marsha Linehan Ph.D. at the University of Washington that is an evidence-based practice used to treat clients with Borderline Personality Disorder. DBT assists clients in learning skills to help them to regulate their emotional responses to situations that occur in their lives that they may have previously responded to in a self-destructive or aggressive manner.  DBT consists of individual therapy sessions that are held weekly with an individual therapist to review events from the past week, and diary cards that a client keeps daily and follows the treatment hierarchy.  Also weekly 2-5 hour skills training classes are held that focus on emotional regulation skills, mindfulness skills, interpersonal effectiveness skills, and distress tolerance skills.

Embracing a mind, body, and spirit approach to recovery, Crestwood Solano has developed a home-style, from scratch cooking nutritional program using whole foods to support the total wellness and education of our consumers.  

Our House is a 58-bed Adult Residential Facility (ARF)/ augmented Board and Care licensed by Community Care licensing. We serve individuals in a therapeutic environment assisting them in gaining their independence back into the community through wellness and recovery. Consumers at Our House work together to create a home-like atmosphere, with shared housekeeping, cooking and other chores.

Consumers are offered a variety of educational opportunities throughout the day from supported community college classes and in-house therapeutic groups which include the Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP), Dual-Recovery, Medication Management, Adult Education, and Community Integration. A variety of outings throughout the Bay Area are planned by consumers each week.  These outings provide consumers with experiences and a chance to feel comfortable in the community.

Consumers can also participate in our Field of Dreams Vocational Skills program that will assist them in gaining outside employment, and to increase community involvement through volunteer work.

Consumers are actively involved in their personal rehabilitation and recovery, and given support in achieving their goals and dreams to help them embrace their individuality and their future through hope, self-advocacy, education, and empowerment.

The Crestwood Solano Living Quest Day Treatment Program is a community care licensed and Medi-Cal certified recovery-based rehabilitation program. This program provides care and services to individuals living with family, independently or at board and care homes in the community. The necessary tools and encouragement a client needs to attain the highest level of community accomplishment is delivered through this program. Like other programs at Crestwood, the Living Quest Program creates individualized treatment programs based on the WRAP model. The program is also an approved service provider for North Bay Regional Center, offering treatment and care to individuals who are dually diagnosed with mental health issues and a developmental disability.  A popular aspect of this program is the pre-vocational assessment and training component. Clients have the opportunity to receive paid training and experience at various job sites and venues, preparing them for gainful employment in the community.

The Neighborhood of Dreams Wellness and Recovery Program partners with Dreamcatchers Empowerment Network to provide outreach and support services in four different locations to assist the person-centered recovery of each member. In a supportive learning environment, and along with community partners, the Neighborhood of Dreams continually evolves in response to the changing needs of each individual consumer. The cultural needs of the community are reflected in the individual locations.

Consumers can take advantage of self-help curriculum for recovery education and vocational skill building, substance abuse groups, computer training and the opportunity for paid employment at a range of levels. Groups and classes are co-led by consumers and staff. Vocational services are provided throughout the community at a variety of locations, offering real-life integrated opportunities.
