Crestwood Behavioral Health San Francisco

About this facility

Crestwood San Francisco is a Mental Health Rehabilitation Center (MHRC) located inside St. Mary’s Medical Center. Just steps from Golden Gate Park, it offers a short-term, recovery-oriented program for adults with serious mental health needs. The urban setting provides easy access to both medical care and calming green space, supporting stability and a smooth return to community life. This program uses a whole-person, strengths-based approach to help clients build independence. Residents engage in dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), WRAP planning, and trauma-informed care. Peer providers with lived experience foster hope and connection. Clients also receive life skills training, recovery education, and support with employment and reintegration—laying the foundation for long-term success after discharge. Located within a full-service hospital, Crestwood San Francisco ensures access to both psychiatric and medical support. Residents benefit from healthy meals, structured routines, and holistic wellness activities. The nearby Golden Gate Park offers space for nature-based healing and reflection. With personalized transition planning and a caring staff, the center provides a safe, engaging environment for recovery in the heart of San Francisco.
