Ascend Behavioral Health

Ascend Behavioral Health in Bakersfield offers compassionate, evidence-based mental health treatment for children and teens ages 9–17. As part of the Bakersfield community, we're proud to support local families through every step of the healing journey. Our programs include residential treatment, Partial Hospitalization (PHP), and Intensive Outpatient (IOP), all designed to meet young people where they are. We treat anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and more using a mix of clinical care and holistic support. With a dedicated team and a strong focus on family involvement, we help kids and teens build the skills they need to thrive—right here at home.
