California Prime Recovery Expands Virtual Therapy Services Across California

California Prime Recovery, an accredited behavioral health center, is pioneering a significant expansion in virtual mental health and addiction treatment services for both adults and adolescents in California. This innovative initiative aims to enhance the accessibility, confidentiality, and quality of care to those struggling with mental health and substance use disorders.

With nearly one in five Californians facing a mental health challenge each year — and only one-third receiving proper treatment according to the California Health Care Foundation — the need for accessible and efficient solutions has become increasingly urgent. Telehealth has emerged as a crucial lifeline for individuals who confront barriers including geographical distance, financial constraints, or societal stigma. California Prime Recovery's statewide expansion ensures that comprehensive, licensed clinical care is just a click away, reaching clients directly in the comfort of their own homes.

Founded in 2016 and based in Fountain Valley, California Prime Recovery is committed to offering a continuum of care for mental health, substance use, and related disorders. The recent virtual program expansion allows this center to effectively reach underserved and often marginalized populations in both rural and urban settings across California.

A Mission of Accessibility

"Our mission focuses on enabling accessible mental health and addiction treatment for everyone who needs it," explains Karynne Witkin, the center's Chief Executive Officer. "By extending our services statewide, we aim to dismantle barriers like distance and stigma, empowering more California residents to access the compassionate, personalized treatment they deserve — all from the privacy of their own homes."

Each virtual service is designed to be conveniently integrated into the daily routines of clients, respecting their commitments to work, school, and family life. The programs incorporate evidence-based treatment modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Informed Care, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, and Relapse Prevention, ensuring a solid foundation for recovery.

Recent data from the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) uncovers a significant rise in telehealth participation for behavioral health, tripling since 2020. Research indicates that Virtual Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) and Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP) display outcomes either on par with, or superior to, traditional in-person care. This emerging evidence demonstrates the efficacy of virtual treatment options in promoting sustained engagement and reducing relapse rates.

Programs for Teens

One of the highlights of California Prime Recovery’s expansion includes the launch of Virtual Teen Mental Health and Substance Use Programs targeted specifically for individuals aged 12 to 17. These specialized programs merge individual therapy with group sessions and parental involvement, fostering emotional regulation, resilience, and healthy coping strategies among adolescents and their families. Catherine Edelstein, Lead Therapist, emphasizes the importance of maintaining connections, stating, “Our virtual teen program nurtures relationships while equipping adolescents with essential tools for emotional well-being.”
