Sol is an all-female outpatient program five minutes from UC Riverside. We've had the privilege of successfully supporting UCR students, and we're here when weekly therapy isn't enough anymore.
Many of the women who come to Sol are already working with a therapist through UCR's Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS). When a CAPS therapist recommends a higher level of care — like an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) or Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) — they'll typically share a list of local resources. Sol is on that list.
If that's where you are right now, you're not being passed along. Your CAPS therapist recognized that what you're carrying needs more clinical support than one hour a week can provide. That's a meaningful distinction, and it takes courage to follow through on it.
Getting your records transferred is simple — a brief fax from CAPS to our team — and we'll handle the rest from there.
One hour a week will not get you the progress that an IOP can. When your therapist recommends more support, that recommendation carries real clinical weight.
Sol Women's Treatment Clinical Team · Riverside, CA
One hour a week with a therapist is meaningful support. But when anxiety, depression, trauma, or burnout have built to the point where a clinician is recommending more — an IOP or PHP delivers that more in a way weekly sessions simply can't.
In a structured outpatient program, you're working with a full clinical team multiple days a week. You're building momentum instead of treading water between appointments. Most women notice a real difference in a matter of weeks — not semesters.
Sol is located in Riverside, CA, just five minutes from the UC Riverside campus. We've had the privilege of successfully supporting UCR students through our student support program, and we continue to serve college women from UC Riverside and other colleges and universities across the Inland Empire and Southern California, including graduate students and transfer students.
If you're a student — or a parent researching on behalf of a daughter — the best first step is a brief conversation with our admissions team.
Sol's student program is built around the real shape of college life — quarter-system deadlines, financial pressure, and the specific mental health experiences that women in academic environments carry.
Academic environments create a specific kind of stress — and for many women, that stress layers on top of things that started long before college began.
Whatever brought you here — you deserve real support, not just another waitlist.
Speak with AdmissionsIf you're an active UCR student, you're covered by UC SHIP — the University of California's student health insurance plan. Most students have never needed to use their behavioral health benefits, so most students don't know what's actually there.
As long as you're enrolled as an active student, your benefits are active. Our team verifies this directly.
UC SHIP policies have an out-of-pocket maximum. In most cases, once that threshold is reached, Sol can offer scholarship support — meaning cost is rarely the actual barrier.
Active UCR students on UC SHIP are typically fully covered. Our team confirms your benefits directly — one conversation.
Verify Your InsuranceIf you're on UC SHIP and actively enrolled, you're very likely fully covered. Sol also offers scholarship support for students who reach their out-of-pocket maximum. Let our team verify your benefits first — cost may not be the obstacle you think it is.
Our program is built to flex around your schedule. Many women attend a few days a week at hours that work with their classes. Treating your mental health now — rather than pushing through to the next break — is often what makes it possible to actually finish the quarter.
If your CAPS therapist recommended a higher level of care, that recommendation has clinical weight. One hour a week is real support — but an IOP gives you focused, structured progress multiple days a week. The two aren't in conflict; deeper treatment often makes individual therapy more meaningful when you return to it.
Sol arranges complimentary private transportation to and from program. Getting here is something we take care of for you.
Most women are surprised by how straightforward this is.
Intentionally small. Entirely female. Built around your life.
"Sol was built specifically for women. The treatment model, the space, and the community all reflect that."
Everything UCR students and their families ask before making the first call.
