South Bay Community Services, also known as the Teen Recovery Center, is a substance abuse treatment facility located in Chula Vista, CA, dedicated to helping adolescents and teens overcome addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders. Situated at 1124 Bay Boulevard Suite D, this program specializes in serving young people and their families during one of the most challenging periods of their lives. South Bay Community Services recognizes that teenage substance use often occurs alongside depression, anxiety, trauma, or other mental health conditions, and provides integrated treatment to address both issues simultaneously.
South Bay Community Services offers multiple levels of care to meet the unique needs of each adolescent and family. Outpatient treatment allows teens to live at home while attending scheduled counseling, therapy, and educational sessions, making it ideal for those with stable home environments and less severe addiction. Partial hospitalization or day treatment provides more intensive support, with teens attending the facility for most of the day while returning home in the evenings—this level bridges the gap between outpatient care and residential treatment. For teens struggling with co-occurring disorders (substance use combined with mental health conditions), the facility provides dual diagnosis treatment that addresses both the addiction and underlying mental health issues through coordinated clinical care. The facility also offers Spanish language services, ensuring that all families in the Chula Vista community can access care in their preferred language.
South Bay Community Services works with families to make treatment as accessible as possible. While specific payment options can vary, the facility accepts insurance and understands that navigating coverage is an important part of the admission process. Under the Mental Health Parity Act, insurance plans are required to cover substance abuse and mental health treatment equally to other medical services, which can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs.
