Alvarado Parkway Institute is a mental health treatment facility located in San Diego, CA, dedicated to serving individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, as well as seniors and older adults. The facility recognizes that mental health and addiction often occur together, and provides specialized care designed to address both conditions simultaneously. Situated at 5538 University Avenue in San Diego, Alvarado Parkway Institute is accessible to residents throughout the greater San Diego area seeking comprehensive treatment services.
Alvarado Parkway Institute offers outpatient treatment programs that allow individuals to receive care while maintaining their daily responsibilities at home or work. Outpatient programs are ideal for those with mild to moderate substance use or mental health concerns, or for individuals transitioning from higher levels of care. The facility specializes in treating co-occurring disorders, meaning clinicians are trained to address mental health conditions and substance abuse together rather than separately. This integrated approach is essential because untreated mental health issues often fuel substance use, and vice versa. Additionally, the facility provides specialized services for seniors and older adults, recognizing that addiction and mental health challenges in this population require age-appropriate treatment that considers medical complexity, medication interactions, and life stage issues unique to older adults.
Alvarado Parkway Institute accepts Medicare, private health insurance, and self-payment options, making treatment accessible to a wide range of individuals. If you have private insurance, your plan is required under the Mental Health Parity Act to cover mental health and substance use treatment at levels comparable to medical and surgical benefits. Even if you're uninsured or underinsured, self-payment plans may be available, and the facility works with patients to identify financial solutions. Cost should never be a barrier to getting the help you need.
