Seasons In Malibu

About Seasons In Malibu – Malibu, California

Seasons in Malibu is a luxury alcohol, drug, and mental health treatment facility in Malibu, California on a property with ocean views and easy beach access. The program is for adult men and women. The center is CARF accredited and licensed by the State of California. They treat substance use disorder and dual diagnosis (co-occurring) mental health issues. The facility accepts insurance and offers free insurance verification.

They have a doctor on staff who oversees your medical detox, which is the first step upon admission. After detox and a comprehensive assessment, you’ll be given an individualized treatment plan. You’ll skip the detox process if you’re in the stand alone treatment for mental health treatment only.

The center offers inpatient and outpatient programs. In the inpatient program, you’ll live at the facility while receiving support and monitoring around the clock. You’ll receive evidence based therapies like motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT can help you identify triggers for addiction and change the negative thought patterns that are often present in co-occurring disorders like anxiety and depression.

You’ll have as many as 65 individual therapy sessions per month with a doctorate level therapist. You’ll also participate in group therapy. Group therapy offers many benefits including support and encouragement from others going through the same process. It also improves your social skills.

This is a luxury rehab center, and it shows in the amenities. They also use equine therapy to help you build self confidence, trust, and self control. You’ll have the opportunity to engage in holistic activities like yoga, beach walks, and meditation. You can go kayaking, swimming, and surfing. You’ll have nutrition therapy to help you understand the connection between substance use and the depletion of essential bodily nutrients. They also offer art therapy, acupuncture, and access to a private gym and tennis courts.
