Mental Health Topics
Renaissance Healthcare is committed
to providing as much information as possible to assist families
with treatment decisions. The residential treatment programs at
Pasadena Villa and the independent
living programs at Transitional Living & Learning Center (TLLC)
both implement as their core modality our unique Social Integration
Model. Residential care is further enhanced by more traditional
therapies, including psychopharmacology, cognitive behavior therapy,
psycho-social education and training, recreational therapy, expressive
arts therapy and family therapy.
One of the most unique features of our social integration model, is that at our treatment center, licensed clinicians participate in our clients’ immersion into a wide variety of social, recreational and cultural community activities. In this process, our staff is able to observe our clients’ ACTUAL social interactions and functioning and intervene as necessary and beneficial right there, in the moment.
So, much of our individual therapy tends to be brief psychotherapy provided within the community “in the moment” of optimum learning opportunity.
