What can I expect when receiving treatment at Del Amo?2023-05-17T12:19:04+00:00

We develop an individualized plan for each of our patients. However, each plan shares key components such as group therapy, individualized therapy and processing groups. We utilize group therapy to assist and encourage patients to interact with others to share issues and to aid in stabilizing the symptoms that lead to hospitalization.

At Del Amo, we know that the end of treatment doesn’t mean the end of the patient’s journey. Post-treatment care is crucial to the recovery process. That’s why we work closely with the patient, as well as their referral source, family and community to develop an effective aftercare plan.
