Trauma and Beyond in Sherman Oaks, California specializes in treating individuals who have experienced traumatic events and suffer from resulting emotional distress. This outpatient center operates on the philosophy that trauma often underlies many psychological and emotional disorders. They offer multiple levels of care including Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), standard outpatient treatment, and supportive living options through their Athena House facility. The clinical team implements a structured three-stage trauma therapy model with all clients. The process begins with emotional stabilization for those experiencing dysregulation, progresses to processing and grieving traumatic memories, and culminates in helping clients reintegrate into daily life with improved functioning. Their therapeutic approach uniquely combines top-down methods targeting the prefrontal cortex with bottom-up techniques that address how trauma manifests physically. Their PHP program serves individuals with severe PTSD, depression, anxiety, or those using substances to cope with trauma. The IOP option suits clients who have completed the PHP program or require more intensive support than individual counseling alone. All treatment levels include both individual counseling and group therapy, with the option for daily individual sessions regardless of program placement. For clients needing structured living support during treatment, Athena House provides accommodations for those in PHP or IOP programs. Many services are available virtually to increase accessibility.
