Who We Are

Since 1981, under the guidance of Dr. Baron, DAPA Psychiatric and Substance Abuse Programs has provided expert and expedient service and treatment to adults suffering with dual disorders, mental and emotional disorders, and substance use disorders. DAPA’s treatment perspective of the continuum is systemic and solution-focused. The clinical team at DAPA are appropriately licensed and certified, highly skilled, and experienced, with the core members of the staff having worked together for almost 20 years. The system, within DAPA, is strong, durable and highly precisioned.

Finding a treatment center that provides outstanding care can be difficult. With millions of people struggling with mental health and substance use every year and only a limited number of resources to help, it’s hard to know where to turn.
