Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

inpatient iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

IOP is an addiction treatment and dual diagnosis (for co-occurring psychological disorders)treatment program that takes place at the Cliffside Malibu center, with Cliffside Malibu staff, but the client does not stay overnight at the facility. Individuals in the Cliffside Malibu IOP will meet at the center daily to undergo a host of treatment activities that will include twice-weekly individual intensive psychotherapy sessions and small group counseling activities.

aftercare iconAftercare

Rehab aftercare programs offer clients in addiction recovery a robust continuum of care after clients have completed active treatment. These services address recovery as a life-long process and are designed to evolve with clients' changing needs. Clients may partner with their case managers and/or addiction recovery team to identify the rehab aftercare services that are right for them. They may receive career counseling, housing assistance, peer coaching, 12 step program induction, among many other services.

12-step icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

sober-living iconSober Living Homes

Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one’s body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal. The first thing the patient’ll experience at Cliffside Malibu is a safe, comfortable medically-supervised detox. Their personal detox specialist will create a detoxification plan for the patient designed to keep them safe and make the process of separating from your drug(s) of choice as painless as possible.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

Drug rehab in California teaches participants constructive ways to stay clean and sober. Treatment revolves around helping individuals stop using the substance they are addicted to and learn healthy habits to avoid relapse.

check iconDual Diagnosis

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person’s mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation. Cliffside Malibu is a licensed dual diagnosis residential treatment center where cutting-edge, evidence-based psychotherapy and analysis meet world-class drug and alcohol addiction treatment, medically supervised detoxification and holistic medicine. The individualized and specialized approach each person receives who walks through their doors is what makes this Malibu oasis more than just a place of luxury and serenity.

mental-health iconMental Health and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavior Therapy

dialectical iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

equine-therapy iconEquine Therapy

Equine therapy, aka equine-assisted therapy (EAT), is a form of experiential therapy that involves interactions and activities with horses. It does not necessarily involve riding horses, but all activities related to horses, such as feeding, grooming, haltering and leading them. A mental health professional frequently oversees the activities (often in conjunction with a horse professional), and helps patients process their thoughts, feelings, and behavior patterns during and/or after the interaction.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life. At Cliffside Malibu, all their clients see their primary psychotherapist 3 times a week for hour-long sessions. Their clients are all carefully assigned a therapist whose personality and training will best bring out the positive qualities each client brings to treatment. Their goal is to help clients quickly establish trust and rapport with someone, something they may not have had with anyone in quite some time.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

The goal of couples therapy in California is to strengthen the couple's relationship. The therapist may take one or more approaches to counseling which may include the Gottman method, emotionally focused therapy, behavioral therapy, and psychodynamic couple's therapy.

eye-movement iconEye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

EMDR is a therapeutic modality originally developed to help process trauma. In an EMDR session, a patient is prompted to undergo eye movements that mimic those of REM sleep. This is accomplished by watching a therapist's finger move back and forth across, or following a bar of light. The goal is repetitive sets of eye movements that help the brain reprocess memory, which can significantly reduce the intensity of remembered traumatic incidents. Associated memories can heal simultaneously, leaving patients significantly calmer, more stable, and more emotionally relaxed.

family iconFamily Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation. Addiction in one or more members of a family is often a symptom of greater family instability. When someone is addicted to drugs or alcohol, the rest of the family must conspire together, consciously or not, to enable that person to use. The addict is very often acting out because something is wrong within the family unit, but the addict lacks the power or authority to bring it up – or the family may not know how to deal with the issue. In any case, the addict’s family must receive help for themselves in order to give the addict his/her best chance at recovery. Every member of the family needs to learn how to discuss and resolve issues and obstacles the family faces.

life-skills iconLife Skills

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

nutritional-therapy iconNutritional Therapy

art-brush iconCreative Arts Therapy

Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.

medical-detox iconExperiential Therapy

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

3 months after leaving Cliffside and I honestly can say the staff and program here saved and changed my life.There are many good days and little bad now. The best thing is knowing how to deal with the bad and appreciating that tomorrow will be good again.Here is something I wrote the day I left, it all still rings true. Thanks Cliffside, I have my life back now and it s truly amazing.31 days ago, I walked through the doors of this house, admitting to myself that I needed help beyond what any family member or friend could give.I've always struggled with bouts of depression and anxiety throughout my life, but it s something that intensified over the past few years. Since I was 16, I hadn t stopped. I was running at full speed, achieving my goals and dreams, focused mainly on my career, and looking out for everyone around me. The adrenaline was amazing, flying around the world, bouncing from one cool project to another. But the stress levels were rising, and my self-care was diminishing along with my love for life and enjoyment of the people around me and everything I had accomplished.Then, in January this year, something erupted in my personal life. I spiraled, falling at 100 MPH, trying to cling onto everything I possibly could while juggling multiple projects. Everything intensified, and I couldn t find a way out. Self-care turned into self-medication, and I entered a dark place. No words from friends, therapists, or family could pull me out. Fear turned into isolation.I woke up on May 1st and knew I needed professional help. I called my amazing family, close colleagues, and friends, explaining that the world had become a little too much and I needed some professional help. The spiral was only heading in one direction.Over the past month, the incredible team of doctors, psychiatrists, and therapists at Cliffside Malibu have taken me apart and put me back together. Where there was darkness, I now see bright sunlight. Where there was pain and anxiety, I now see joy and excitement. Giving myself to this process, rediscovering myself, and learning how beautiful life can be with the right tools to navigate and process it has been the most rewarding thing I ve ever experienced.Brad, Christine, Jared, Elijah, and Angie: Thanks for being on this journey alongside me, opening up, and sharing your stories. Every one of you is a true inspiration, and this is just the start of your incredible futures.To all the staff at Cliffside: thank you for changing my life. Roxan, you are just incredible. Nina, you deserve 100 Michelin Stars. All the counselors, doctors, therapists, trainers, techs, instructors, Gretchen, and the house team: thank you, thank you, thank you.The future is a jog, not a sprint. I m so excited for what's in store, to get back out there creating, loving every minute life brings, the people around me, and this next chapter.I had heard so many people in the past write something about when they finally decided to get help, but I didn t believe it and didn t think that anything would help me. If anyone is suffering, there s a way out. The future is bright. If I can help share my story, advice, or connect you with people who can help, then please reach out.I ve been so fortunate to accomplish many things I m proud of in my life, but this moment right now, the moment I did something for myself, is for sure my proudest.

Cliffside Malibu saved my life! The staff and support team are overwhelmingly helpful. And the open curriculum really gives clients the agency to take control of their own recovery path. If you come here with the intent of healing, and use all the resources available, you will succeed. Cessation of use is the primary function of a recovery center. It s the beginning of your journey. But I m leaving here with a full tool bag to jump into my own path of a life of sobriety. Don t sleep on this place. Come sleep in it. Do yourself the favor of gifting your beautiful self the gift of health, life, self love, sobriety, and mental health, here at Cliffside! You won t regret it. But you may regret not doing it. I wish you the best in your recovery journey. And I hope this review will make you consider Cliffside Malibu!

Where do I even begin? I spent four months at Cliffside Malibu four months that saved my life. I have been sober since the day I arrived at Cliffside. The staff were amazing and caring. The Medical staff helped me get through my detox and I wasn't afraid or sick. They kept me comfortable. I had excellent counseling and an individualized care plan. The facilities are extremely clean and absolutely amazing views. Just give it a chance it could save your life like it did mine!

I m a parent of an adult daughter who went to Cliffside Malibu for alcohol rehab nearly 4 years ago.We spent weeks choosing what would be the best fit for her. She had psychological challenges like depression, high anxiety and alcoholism.Cliffside provided intensive dual diagnostic treatments. The spa like atmosphere (yoga, meditation, massage healthy food , individual and group therapy) really helped her relax and focus on her healing. The compassionate providers and their unconditional acceptance and respect helped build her self esteem.Even though She doesn t live in S.California, she continues to benefit from Cliffside s alumnae program and regularly attends aftercare zoom meetings a few times a week!

Cliffside Malibu is an amazing treatment program that continues to serve me almost four years later. We researched centers throughout Southern California, settling on Cliffside for its diverse therapeutic approaches, extensive wellness offerings, & strong reputation within the treatment community. I went there early in the pandemic for both mental health issues & alcohol dependency -both exacerbated by work loss & other pandemic related stressors. I left with a commitment to sobriety & the tools & their alumnae community resources which I believe are key to the sober more psychologically stable life I continue to enjoy today. I attend multiple weekly alumnae AA & Refuge Recovery meetings & maintain close ties with fellow patients, & various staff including our excellent alumnae coordinator, Kelley.

If I had to share my experience at cliffside it would go something like this.My alcoholism has taken me far and wide, from Tarzana to Temecula and praise God to finally Malibu.Many folks need to be in a rigid military style location. I didn't need that, I did a great job beating myself down already.I showed up to cliffside and the moment I walked in I was loved on, looked after, cared for. I really needed some TLC.From the nurse to the housekeeper at CM2 they loved on us.The therapy, outings, case manager meetings and dinners the house had together were medicine to my spirit.The staff would come talk and hang with us which all the difference. We were not just a client, we were people they esteemed and cared about.Post cliffside, Kelley continued to keep in touch through text and asking how I was and always been in touch for alumni events.The alumni meetings have been extra-ordinary, I feel I'm coming home, the therapist, techs and director come up and hugged me.I feel extremely blessed and supported.I see cliffside continues to make a difference and we the clients present and past feel it.Thank you again.Now, I'm back to life, life started falling back into place, going back to work Monday with a running start. I feel good physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.Looking forward to continue utilizing cliffside as one of my resources and possible in the near future running some groups for them.Let's Go!!!All love!Joseph Sax Mendez

Cliffside Malibu helped me get sober with a variety of intense approaches to treatment in a comfortable and controlled environment, and I m grateful to say that I ve been sober for nearly 4 years and haven t needed treatment since. I was identified as a trauma patient early with significant health challenges and was treated by a trauma counselor accordingly.The staff are exceptionally warm and compassionate and friendly, which was lacking in my home environment. I have since gotten trauma therapy and am rebuilding my career. I am grateful that 30 days was sufficient for me, I sought to not chafe against the cost and become attached to the staff, lest i boomerang but strived to rethink everything in my life and move forward.My only complaint is that the food options are generous but often highly caloric and processed which can be an issue for those of us with extreme diet restrictions, but the cooking staff is very accommodating.

I can't say enough good things about Cliffside. This was not my first rodeo, it was actually my 8th impatient I have been to unfortunately, so I know what other places are like in comparison. No other facility had provided me with the support, and tools needed to beat my demons and want my life back as Cliffside did. I was very nervous coming to cliffside as I had uprooted my life in New York to come out here, coupled with terrible experiences in the past but, my worries were quickly put at ease. The facility itself is beautiful and in the scenic Malibu Hills. Everything is provided to you from housekeeping services to 3 meals a day, snacks, beverages etc. They offer amazing amenities such as weekly massages, acupuncture, yoga, meditation, and sound baths. There are multiple pools and hot tubs on each site for your leisure use along with a gym and a tennis/basketball course. There are private chefs who care about their job and provide amazing food for the clients, as well as adhering to any dietary needs. They also take you on weekly outings so one does not feel so cooped up. When it comes to their schedule, it is not overbearing at all. They offer a perfect balance of workshops, and free time to where you actually look forward to being in a group instead of feeling like you're being drilled all day. You get plenty of time to yourself to have moments to reflect and look deep inside. All of the above mentioned was great however, for me the best/most important part was the level of genuine care I received from every single person that works here. EVERYONE there, from the therapists, the nursing staff, the techs, the aftercare team, to even the housekeepers and chefs are beyond friendly, and truly cared about their jobs and the clients, on a level I could not comprehend, nor have never experienced before. I have never felt so safe and nurtured in my life. If you are reading any bad reviews, it is either from someone who has not been here or was not ready to get their lives back and probably left against medical advice. I never thought I would say that I enjoyed my stay at a place like this but I was genuinely upset when my time had come to leave. If you are looking into treatment for yourself or a loved one this is absolutely the best place. Cliffside truly saved my life, and I do not say that lightly.

Saved my life, while also giving me one of the greatest experiences of my life. Healed me in so many ways and in so many different places, and ailments. Might not be here today without this wonderful treatment center. The staff was so helpful, and caring. I learned so much, started my healing journey, and recovered in so many ways that I thought I never could.
