FROM THE SITE:
Alpha Behavioral Health Services (legally Alpha of San Diego,
Inc.) is a nonprofit 50l(c)(3) social service agency that was
founded in 1971 by volunteers from churches in Mid-City to
provide counseling (to homeless and substance abusing youth.)
Located in North Park California, AlphaBHS provides a wide range
of behavioral health counseling and psychological services in
English and Spanish to over 600 clients annually.
For almost 20 years, AlphaBHS has been providing Social Services
Counseling and Therapy services provided by intern and/or trainee
clinicians under the supervision of AlphaBHS’s Clinical Supervisor.
The interns/trainees are recruited through local universities and
training programs, working towards their licensure as Marriage
and Family Therapists (MFT) or Masters in Social Work (MSW).
Psychological Services are provided by board certified
psychologists.
In addition to accepting Medi-Cal, Medicare, California American
Indian Recovery (CAIR) and other insurance plans, social service
counseling is also offered on a sliding fee scale; over 90% of
self-pay clients pay on the lowest end of the scale ($18 or less),
and no client is turned away due to inability to pay.
