Journey Hillside Tarzana LLC

Boutique Environment for High-Touch, Trauma-Informed Care

Serving just six clients at a time, this limited capacity fosters a calm, intimate environment where clients are supported by a consistent clinical team. The small-group setting allows for closer therapeutic relationships, reduced social pressure, and real-time emotional support, especially meaningful for people navigating trauma, anxiety, or co-occurring disorders.

Experiential Therapies That Support Emotional and Physical Recovery

Beyond talk therapy, residents engage in experiential therapies designed to promote regulation, connection, and resilience. These include yoga, sound baths, equine therapy, breathwork, and expressive arts, alongside clinical modalities, that together, support both mind and body healing.

Tracks for Veterans, Professionals, LGBTQ+ Clients, and More

The program offers dedicated tracks for specific populations, including LGBTQ+ clients, veterans, and professionals. These tracks are designed to reflect the lived experience and unique stressors of each group, creating more relevant group programming and case management. Clients facing stigma or career-related pressures often benefit from this affirming, identity-focused approach.

Restorative Setting and Wellness-Focused Amenities

The facility is based in a private hillside home with semi-private rooms, a landscaped backyard, and a full range of wellness amenities. Residents enjoy chef-prepared meals, an outdoor pool and hot tub, meditation areas, and a basketball court. This setting helps clients build routines around sleep, nutrition, and movement, elements that can support physical and emotional stability beyond treatment.

Rebuilding Support and Connection After Treatment

Throughout the program, residents participate in group work that emphasizes peer support and community building. Some services may include introduction to 12-step or other recovery pathways, based on individual preference. These connections are intended to help clients engage socially and emotionally, while building tools they can use to navigate life after treatment.
