About Us

At The Stables, we recognize that all great minds do not think alike. To help clients reach their full potential, we offer a wide range of individualized programming tailored to their pace and needs. Our primary goal is to empower neurodivergent individuals—including those with autism spectrum disorder—to explore the possibilities of an independent life comfortably.

Located on a serene 25-acre property, our home‑like 9‑bed facility offers a low staff‑to‑client ratio for personalized attention and support. The Stables creates a realistic environment that mirrors the daily challenges and triggers clients may face, offering a more authentic experience than traditional residential treatment programs.

Position Summary

The Regional Director of Clinical Partnerships is responsible for creating and executing growth strategies related to clinical inquiries and admissions. This role focuses on cultivating and maintaining strong professional relationships, ensuring that clinical partners are well‑informed and connected to the services provided by Pasadena Villa’s The Stables Autism Program. The position involves conducting national outreach to raise awareness among clinical partners, the community, and families about the benefits of high‑quality, individualized, client‑centered residential treatment for long‑term wellness and recovery. Additionally, the Regional Director analyzes industry trends to shape strategic priorities, remove barriers to care, and increase clinical referrals.

This position is dedicated to managing autism‑specific accounts on a national level, with a primary focus on providers who work with individuals on the autism spectrum.
