Mela Counseling Services Center Inc is a Los Angeles outpatient program operating since the 1990s, offering intensive outpatient (IOP) care with a faith-based orientation open to any tradition. It is one of a smaller number of nearby providers that structure their approach around faith, and it also addresses grief and loss, a specialty found at relatively few facilities in the area.

The center serves people navigating court-ordered or DUI-related requirements and incorporates mindfulness into its programming. It maintains a smoke-free environment and offers sliding-scale payment options, making it one of a limited group of local facilities providing that flexibility for those seeking outpatient support.
