CLINICAL SERVICES
Outpatient 

The Outpatient Program therapists, case managers, and psychiatrists are a team of skilled clinicians who provide mental health services to individuals who are living with mental illnesses and emotional disorders. These dedicated professionals, nearly all of whom are bilingual/bicultural, work with their clients to help them improve the quality of their lives and reduce symptoms that interfere with their daily functioning.

Birth to Five

Support for the developmental and emotional needs of infants and young children through their relationship with their parent(s).

Prevention & Early Intervention (PEI)

Prevention and Early Intervention (PEI) is designed to provide short-term mental health treatment to children through older adults, to manage mild to moderate mental health difficulties, prevent these problems from getting worse, and to enhance quality of life.

Treatment consists of seven Evidence-Based Practices (EBP). These EBP are interventions that have been shown to be effective at reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety. 

Multidisciplinary Assessment Team

Intensive assessment services for children at severe risk of losing home placement. The team asses the child’s needs and current living enviornment then link the child with mental health services – and/or medical, education or special needs services, if necessary – and connects with an appropriate family member to avoid foster placement. 

Medication Management

Psychiatric services and patient monitoring for high-need clients with medication needs.

Henry heard voices in his head.

Henry, in his late 60s, had been a heroin addict for 30 years. He had spent time in prison for various crimes and was struggling with severe mental health issues. He experienced hallucinations and would run around naked in the streets, once stopping traffic on a busy freeway. He talked to lamp poles and coke machines. He was in and out of hospitals and could not focus. 

When he was referred to Amanecer, Henry was skeptical and distrustful of his care team. His case manager spent time carefully gaining Henry’s trust by meeting him at his door in a specific manner at a specific time. He then brought food to Henry and took him to a doctor, holding his hand all the way. Once Henry was put on medication, the voices in his head stopped. 

For 3 years, Henry participated in reality-based therapy and was kept on a structured and rigid routine by his case manager. He grew to be able to handle life changes and began to attend a computer class and become able to make short trips his home town in Nevada.

Help adults like Henry find their new beginning.
