EleMental
Health was created with one belief at its core: women heal better when they feel truly
understood. Our residential program in Thousand Oaks brings together evidence-based clinical
care and holistic healing practices rooted in an East-meets-West philosophy — because

nothing like a hospital. With more than 500 satisfied clients, we specialize in treating
women navigating PTSD, bipolar disorder, anxiety, OCD, depression, psychosis, postpartum

Every treatment plan is personalized, holistic, and built around
the whole woman — not just her diagnosis.

comprehensive hormone and blood panels at intake — assessing thyroid, cortisol, estrogen,
progesterone, and inflammatory markers — so every aspect of treatment is informed by a
complete biological picture.

Brainspotting, IFS, Somatic Experiencing, DBT, and more — tailored to each woman's
individual treatment plan.

Medication Support
On-site
nursing staff manages medications in a calm, private setting, using GeneSight
pharmacogenomic testing to match each woman's protocol to her unique genetic profile.
The Five
Elemental Tracks
Our
signature group therapy framework organizes healing across five core domains: EARTH, FIRE,
AIR, WATER, and SPIRIT — each delivered through Somatic Integration, Parts Work, Attachment
Theory, and Process Group.
Mind-Body &
Holistic Practices
Trauma-Informed Yoga, Breathwork, Peace Walks, Infrared & Red Light Sauna, and therapeutic
movement bring the body into the healing process alongside clinical work.
Nutrition as
Medicine
Every
meal is chef-prepared using whole, healing foods and cold-pressed juices designed to support
mood, hormonal balance, and cellular vitality.
Community &
Connection
Group
sessions, shared meals, and communal living create a therapeutic community where women feel
seen, supported, and never alone in their healing.
Family &
Relational Healing
We
integrate family sessions and relational work into each woman's treatment plan, addressing
the dynamics and attachment patterns central to her recovery.

Testimonials
What Our
Clients Are Saying
Discover
how EleMental Health has helped so many women reclaim their lives.
I had such an amazing and wonderful experience at Elemental.
After completing my time there I feel like I made so much
progress in my healing and recovery journey. I was very hesitant
about entering treatment, but the staff there made the
transition and experience very pleasant and worthwhile. I have
never encountered a more accommodating staff in all my years in
recovery. As an all women’s treatment facility the staff is all
female which I greatly appreciated. I can honestly say each
staff member always went above and beyond to make us clients
feel safe, seen and heard. They made the whole process at
Elemental one I’ll never forget and will surely carry with me
for a lifetime. From the accommodations, to the groups, to the
food and the one-on-one therapy – it was all so
beautifully curated. You can feel how much this place cares
about you as an individual, not just as some insurance policy
like many other centers. I loved the home environment, it was
very cozy and comfortable, and the meals were out of this world;
something you don’t find at many other places. If you’re a
woman in need of mental health services I couldn’t recommend
this place more. Thank you again to Elemental for a truly
lifesaving experience.
I am in love with this facility. I have been
through treatment many times about seven years exactly going
into multiple residentials per year. Elemental Health
however, has deeply impacted me and changed my perspective
on my mental health and for the first time, I felt hope that
I would be able to do this. Staff is absolutely incredible.
These are people that genuinely want to help. Nicole The
owner is absolutely an angel. She helped me when I was going
through hard times with my daughter having surgery and she
was able to get me more time there to process. The amount of
care and love that these people show is a game changer. If I
were to ever go back to Treatment again, I would come here!
You guys have made the largest impact on me and my future
and I couldn’t be more grateful!
Life-changing experience. The team at
Ellemental truly cares and creates a safe, supportive
environment for healing and growth. From the staff to the
program itself, every part of my experience exceeded my
expectations. I felt seen, heard, and supported every step
of the way. The tools, guidance, and community I found here
have made a lasting impact on my life. I am incredibly
grateful and would highly recommend Ellemental to anyone
looking for real support and transformation.
Elemental was amazing. This was the
perfect place to do inner child work and unpack
trauma. The house is beautiful and cozy and I was
able to reset my nervous system through the mind
body spirit somatic and emotional therapy. I enjoyed
the pool and the sun deck. The chef is amazing and
got my health back on track. The team is incredible.
I loved the incorporation of art therapy as well.
Overall wonderful experience
As a treatment provider myself, I’m
extremely discerning about where I refer both my
clients and my own loved ones—especially when it
comes to residential mental health care for women.
EleMental Health has consistently earned my trust
through their compassionate, clinically sound, and
truly holistic approach to treatment.
What sets EleMental apart is their deep
understanding of the unique needs of women,
particularly those navigating trauma and PTSD.
Their inclusion of evidence-based modalities
like EMDR and neurofeedback makes the program
not just supportive, but transformative. The
environment is warm and grounding, and their
multidisciplinary team integrates emotional,
psychological, physical, and spiritual healing
in a way that feels both personalized and
empowering.
I have referred clients to EleMental knowing they
will be met with respect, care, and a
therapeutic container that fosters true healing.
For any woman in need of comprehensive mental
health support, this is a place I recommend
without hesitation.
It is owned and operated by two female clinicians
as well, so I don’t have to worry that
corporate interests are dictating or limiting
client care.
As a clinician in the community with a group
practice and many opportunities to refer to
higher levels of care, I am always staying in
touch with the latest and greatest in our
community. I have had the pleasure of getting to
know the work that is done at Elemental Health
and I have been so impressed by the
evidenced-based treatment and thoughtful care
they are providing to the community. The space
is breathtaking and peaceful and the chef is
extraordinary. The ladies that developed
this program truly embody the term specialized
as they do not fail to look at any and all
possible underlying issues (which women often
report are ignored in our medical community).
They do so with full hormone and blood panels to
assess physiological factors that can be
influencing mental health. Their ability to
treat not just the symptoms but the root causes
of mental and emotional pain is why they are so
able to help individuals navigating challenges
related to chronic pain, neurodivergence, and
dissociative disorders—areas that many centers
struggle to address with such care and clinical
sophistication. Elemental’s team
brings a holistic and integrative approach to
treatment, including modalities like somatic
therapy, EMDR, and mindfulness practices, all
grounded in clinical expertise. They truly meet
each client where they are, tailoring care to
the whole person—body, mind, and spirit.
This place literally saved
my life❤️ Staff are amazing and caring.
Absolutely recommend to anyone needing some
guidance.
The first few days I was here I was
having flashbacks and I crawled into
bed, and Nicolle helped me move to the
living room and ground w/ ice and
peppermint essential oils, and I felt
safe and seen for the first time in a
long time. I did not know what it felt
like to feel safe before I got here.
I think the biggest thing I’ve
overcome since being here is that
feeling that I need to do whatever OTHER
people want. Now I know that I
don’t owe anyone anything and I
get to decide what I want to do with my
life. I am allowed to put myself in safe
situations and don’t have to feel
guilty about that.
I have met so many safe people and it
makes me feel more hopeful and like I
deserve and am allowed to choose safe
options. I feel more in control of my
anxiety as well… I can choose
healthy coping mechanisms and even if it
takes longer for relief, the relief
comes eventually.
I really enjoyed my time here, wonderful
staff and very supportive group of
individuals. Made me feel extremely safe
& welcomed… The owners are
some of the kindest individuals
I’ve met… I’ve never
seen such hardworking, caring people who
spend day to night here making sure we
are always okay!
I feel like I got a brain-cleanse — like
my brain was dirty and it got scrubbed
out. I’m more optimistic, kind to
myself, resilient, able to process
emotions, and excited for the future.
And: Life is about the little moments,
and finding beauty and enjoyment on the
journey.
It’s scary and it’s hard,
but it’s also safe and it’s
freeing. Every person who walks in this
building wants to do whatever they can
to help.
I overcame a ton of my most powerful
limiting beliefs about myself, learned
how to be independent and self-soothe,
and learned how to process my emotions
in a healthy way so they don’t
spiral out of control.
I was in a very dark place before coming
here. Thanks to EleMental, I finally
feel in control again.
