Welcome to Bay Area Clinical Associates! Since 2007, BACA’s clinicians have provided innovative mental health services to youth and families from across California. We believe that all youth, regardless of socio-economic status, should have access to gold-standard mental health interventions. As a social justice agency working on behalf of children and families, we strive to cure mental illness in our patients, help them develop healthy habits, and realize their full potential. Our services help across a wide variety of disorders like depression, stress, trauma and anxiety. Evidence indicates most mental illnesses originate in childhood. Many youth remain undiagnosed or inadequately treated until much later in life. There are solid, evidence-based treatments to alleviate the suffering associated with mental illness, yet there are many obstacles to getting available services to the children who need them the most.
