Our Philosophy

Each person is multidimensional therefore this treatment program is all encompassing. La Ventana’s philosophy is to “empower” the client by creating a foundation of recovery tools for success, working in collaboration with a treatment team, and creating a community base support system.

Vision

To be the premier provider of the full continuum of care for Mental Health and Substance Use treatment in the United States. Our clients will receive the highest quality of care in a luxurious setting to reach their treatment goals. Our staff will excel in a supportive and rewarding environment that sharpens to their professional goals. Our Alumni will return for years to come for continued support and mentorship.

How is this philosophy achieved?

We create a safe and nurturing environment for both our mental health treatment program and substance use program. Working in collaboration with a treatment team La Ventana addresses recovery and supports the client in developing healthier coping mechanisms and practical life skills.  Learning skillsets on how to cope with their mental illness helps to “empower” the client and prepares the client for life outside of treatment and into recovery.

Because these illnesses can be a complex and subjective experience, an individualized treatment protocol is developed to meet the client’s therapeutic needs and goals. In order to solidify recovery, family therapy and couple therapy are recommended to support members involved in the recovery process. Breaking through the challenges of a mental illness or addiction can deeply affect family members as well as partners.

Because recovery is a process, it is imperative for the client to continue treatment once graduating from the La Ventana Program. While the client is achieving recovery in their program, his/her treatment team strategizes a community support system plan. Bridging recovery received in the La Ventana program to recovery within the outside community again “empowers” the client and creates a sense of wellbeing and self-efficacy.
