About La Cheim Behavioral Health Services
Located in Oakland, La Cheim provides both day and intensive outpatient (IOP) services for adults facing mental health and substance use challenges in the San Francisco Bay Area. Their programs are designed to meet for 3 to 5 days a week, available in-person, online, or in a hybrid format.
La Cheim features group discussions that focus on therapeutic processes and skill development. These process groups may bring together individuals dealing with similar issues, such as grief or thoughts of self-harm, or they may be organized by demographic factors, including neurodiverse, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ identities. The skill development sessions equip participants with coping strategies through various therapeutic approaches, including acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), body wisdom techniques, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), expressive arts, and self-empowerment strategies. Additionally, La Cheim offers gender-specific groups focused on self-expression.
