Welcome Santa Barbara crisis residential to Crestwood!

On June 1, Crestwood was excited and proud to assume the operations of the Santa Barbara Crisis Residential. The Santa Barbara Crisis Residential campus is located in the beautiful seaside city of Santa Barbara and provides a voluntary, short-term safe place to land for guests experiencing a psychiatric crisis. Their guests are greeted into a warm, homelike environment and we provide them with a variety of recovery-based tools such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Wellness Recovery Action Plans (WRAP) and Trauma-Informed Approaches to help them to manage their symptoms and develop skills to live effectively in the community. The clinical treatment team is comprised of people with lived experience, who are trained and certified peer providers, with a wide-array of clinical expertise. Our guests are also encouraged to utilize our Dreamcatchers Empowerment Network program that provides pre-vocational job skills training.

Welcome Santa Barbara Crisis Residential staff and guests to our Crestwood family!
