Our Story Begins in Los Angeles
Clearview Treatment Programs started as an outpatient program in Los Angeles with a simple but powerful mission — to help individuals facing addiction or mental health challenges successfully bridge the gap between intensive residential care and life at home. By providing structured support, clinical expertise, and a safe place to practice recovery skills, we’ve helped clients reduce the risk of relapse and confidently reintegrate into their communities.
Clearview’s outpatient treatment program met and exceeded those goals, becoming one of the most long-standing outpatient programs in Southern California. Clearview’s Outpatient Treatment Center now includes individualized partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs to treat mental health disorders, addiction, and dual diagnosis.
Founded in 2000, Clearview Treatment Programs has been providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health and addiction care for adults across both residential and outpatient settings.
Expanding Care for Co-Occurring Disorders
In 2004, Clearview broadened its mission to address the unique challenges of individuals facing both addiction and mental illness. We opened our first residential extended care program in Venice Beach, offering adults of all genders the structure, support, and time they needed beyond the traditional 30-day model.
A year later, we launched our dedicated treatment center for addiction with co-occurring mental health conditions — meeting a critical need in Los Angeles for comprehensive, integrated care.
Over the years, these programs have evolved into nationally recognized, evidence-based treatment programs that have helped hundreds achieve lasting recovery, rebuild their lives, and transition forward with confidence.
World-Renowned Residential Care for Women with BPD
In 2008, Clearview set out to change the way borderline personality disorder (BPD) is treated, recognizing that women living with BPD were often underserved in traditional programs. The result was our Women’s Mental Health Program in Venice Beach — now recognized worldwide for its specialized approach.
Grounded in comprehensive dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), our program equips women and individuals of diverse genders with the skills to manage severe mental health challenges, build resilience, and sustain long-term recovery.
Why Venice Beach?
Both of our residential treatment centers are in Venice Beach, less than one mile from the coast. While many treatment programs on the coast are secluded, Clearview recognized that clients benefit from being immersed in a real-world environment.
With its locations in Venice Beach, clients can confront triggers while in a safe residential setting. They can also focus on gradual re-emersion into the community via passes and outings. Clients can get assistance with work, school, and volunteer opportunities in the nearby area.
Sharing Expertise, Strengthening Communities
Clearview’s mission goes beyond the walls of our treatment centers. Our clinical experts travel nationwide to lead workshops, provide in-service trainings, and share insights with fellow mental health professionals. We’re honored to present at leading national conferences and to collaborate with respected organizations like the National Education Alliance for Borderline Personality Disorder (NEABPD) and the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). Through education, advocacy, and partnership, we’re helping build a stronger, more informed mental health community for all.
