FAQs
Questions about admissions at Pasadena Villa
What do you treat at Pasadena Villa?
Pasadena Villa specializes in providing adults with high-quality, individualized psychiatric and psychotherapeutic care. We treat anxiety disorders, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), bipolar disorder, co-occurring substance use disorder or addiction, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and trauma, psychosis, schizophrenia , and other psychotic disorders.
How are clients' families involved in treatment?
Family involvement is welcomed and encouraged when it is appropriate and beneficial for the client’s recovery. Our treatment team prioritizes keeping family members informed with updates and education about their loved one’s mental health diagnosis.
We value family input and offer family therapy sessions tailored to the client’s needs. These sessions — recommended by the treatment team in collaboration with the resident and family — are available through various formats, including phone, in-person, and video conferencing.
What is the average length of stay at Pasadena Villa?
The length of stay at Pasadena Villa varies based on each client’s progress and response to treatment. We do not follow a predetermined timeline, such as a 90-day or year-long program, as each client’s journey is unique.
The treatment team — including the client, their family, psychiatrists, therapists, nurses, and other professionals — determines the appropriate length of stay. For clients using insurance, the duration of care also depends on insurance approvals.
