About Our Adolescent Programs Near Tarzana
Beachside Teen is a CARF-accredited residential treatment center serving families throughout the San Fernando Valley and greater Los Angeles area—including Tarzana.
Our program is built exclusively for adolescents. That means the entire schedule was designed with teenagers in mind. We treat co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders using evidence-based, individualized care. No two teens are the same, and no two treatment plans are either.
How We Help Teens
Teens who come to Beachside are dealing with real, complex challenges. We help them work through those challenges in a safe, supportive environment where they can focus entirely on getting better.
Our clinical team addresses the full picture so that teens leave with more than just symptom relief. They leave with tools, insight, and a stronger sense of who they are.
What to Expect as a Parent
Sending your child to a residential program is a big decision. It’s helpful for parents to know what to expect.
Here’s what the process looks like at Beachside Teen:
- You’ll start with a call to our admissions team. We’ll listen, ask questions, and help you figure out if Beachside is the right fit.
- From there, we’ll verify your insurance and complete a clinical assessment before your teen arrives.
- Once your teen is admitted, you won’t be left in the dark. Family therapy is a core part of our program. We hold regular sessions, keep you informed, and make sure you’re prepared to support your teen when they come home.

According to a UCLA Center for Health Policy Research study, 45% of California youth between the ages of 12 and 17 report having recently struggled with mental health issues. Nearly a third of them experience serious psychological distress significant enough to interfere with their academic and social functioning.
For families in the Tarzana area, access to the right level of care can make all the difference. If you’re seeing warning signs in your teenager, don’t wait.
Residential treatment is typically appropriate when a teen’s needs can’t be safely or effectively met at home or through outpatient care. This might include teens who are in crisis, who have tried outpatient treatment without success, who are engaging in dangerous behaviors, or who are dealing with complex co-occurring disorders.
If you’re unsure, call us. Our clinical team can conduct a thorough assessment and give you an honest recommendation, even if that recommendation turns out to be a different level of care.
