I worked as a program aide at Visions for 8 months. I saw the innermost workings of the company and worked directly with the kids. Working as a program aide at Visions was the most meaningful time of my life. Program aides spend the most time with the kids, and because of that I was able to watch the transformation happen.I saw kids come into Visions in psychosis, in deep depression, in immense anxiety, and in general suffering. I watched many miracles happen over the course of 45-60 days. And I saw those same kids who came into Visions so sick leave completely changed. Visions works because of their insistence on the family work. While Visions' residents are doing the work, their parents are doing the work along with them. Each kid at Visions has a Family Therapist, and individual therapist, a psychiatrist, an internist, a host of program aids, and a depth of specialty clinicians for CBT therapy, DBT therapy, eating disorders, OCD, ASD, Trauma.These kids have more help at their disposal at Visions than any human generally ever experiences. Offering this level of support in such a critical time in a teen's life sets them up for successes beyond their and their parents' dreams. I know because I saw it. I directly experienced the change.Visions is a beautiful place and I am grateful for every minute I got to tech there.

Addiction Treatments

Treatments

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.

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.

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.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Clinical Services

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.

I was at Visions for over 100 days in 2022. While it carried challenges, as all programs and facilities do, I truly felt home there. Visions helped me beyond belief, and the staff (from therapists to techs to powers-that-be and more) were a crucial part in how I got to where I am now. I am endlessly thankful for Visions and everything they do.

Visions saved my life. Great place to learn everything you need to know to beat addiction. Staff love the kids and the owner is the most stand up guy I know.

I was sent voluntarily to Visions in January of 2021, I was 17 years old and incredibly vulnerable. During my first day I was left unattended in my room with no instructions so I decided to take a walk around the house and get a sense of where everything is, I was reprimanded for "attempting to run" and all of my shoes were confiscated. I wasn't allowed to see pictures of my family, nor write or draw in any of my journals until I reached "level one" despite writing and drawing being my only healthy coping mechanisms. I never reached level one. I very nearly made an attempt on my life while there, and when I went to the staff for help, they put me on "arms length" for nearly 24 hours until they finally took me to an emergency room. Once I was checked in, they left me alone in a hospital room, where I stayed for 24 hrs. Only contacting my parents by a phone at the nurses desk 13 hrs in, who seemed to have no idea I was there. I will never forget how I was treated during my time here, and my heart goes out to everyone else who survived this scam of a treatment center.

Our daughter is now four years out from her time at Visions in-patient treatment at the Mental Health House in Malibu. With immense gratitude and confidence I can say that Visions saved her life and changed our families trajectory. We are from Texas and were referred to Visions after our daughters stabilization at The Menninger Clinic in Houston. Looking back it still feels tender and very scary when I consider what led us to Visions. But without a doubt the process was as seamless, supportive, and filled with kindnesses as possible. Leaving our hurting and shattered child in the care of people we had only briefly met was not easy in any aspect. However, from our first phone call to drop off, John Lieberman was the epitome of professionalism. He provided compassion and helped my husband and I feel seen, supported and confident in our decision. As our daughter progressed through the program with ups, setbacks, downs and eventually steady progress, Ian Hogue, her primary therapist, was the key for her to be able to do the work she needed to do. Don't get me wrong, the wisdom of Visions leadership to pair Ian with our daughter was not initially clear. But after our first family weekend, the wisdom was quite clear. Ian's role now as a Parent Coach is definitely well lived and deserved. Visions helped us transition home to an IOP in our area that was just as thoughtful as it was excellent. After completing IOP and finishing her senior year in high school she went to college about an hour and a half away. She was able to and is still now seeing her original therapist.Please don't misunderstand, it hasn't been all rainbows and butterflies since her time at Visions four years ago. There have been ups, downs, pretty tough setbacks and even deeper growth for our daughter as well as for myself and my husband. And what is also a constant is how very thankful we are for our decision to take Menninger's recommendation to go to Visions Adolescent Treatment Center in Malibu.As a crazy side note, our daughter was at the house in Malibu for 5 days before the wildfires required evacuation. The team at Visions stayed in touch with us almost on an hourly basis. They had a contingency plan in place that allowed for uninterrupted treatment. Eventually there was a relocation to just as amazing a facility as the one in Topanga Canyon. Huge kudos for great planning and calm steady leadership during an unprecedented natural disaster.

The parent support group at Visions has been incredibly helpful and meaningful as my daughter has been in treatment. Visions supports not just the child in treatment but the whole family and continues the support even after the child leaves the treatment center. Amanda at visions is very resourceful, kind and available. And Amy H the therapist who moderates the parent support is a compassionate and understanding person who provides so much support for parents dealing with kids in various stages of recovery and sobriety. Visions is full of caring and supportive people.

I m sure this place has helped people that it s appropriate for, but this was not my case here.I was sent here for addiction I didn t have, and then knowing this, they kept me here for my rich parents money and ignored my needs. I came from an abusive family and told my therapist here many times that I was physically, emotionally, and sexually abused at home by my father, and they never mandatory reported to CPS, effectively breaking multiple laws. I came in for an alleged marijuana addiction, however my use was not daily and I did not exhibit most symptoms for addiction. Even though my correct diagnoses have been found to be unrelated to addiction and risky behaviors due to abuse at home, and my psychoanalysis and UA at Visions all would point to this, not to mention the constant cries for help at home pleading that I wasn t experiencing addiction, and that I was being abused by my father, they ignored all of these cries and proceeded to take me through exactly what my parents wanted me to do as a gaslighting tactic. It s perfect, you re not abused you re just crazy, and Visions went along with this concept for my parents money. I ended up suffering from Stockholm syndrome, and had to eventually believe I was an addict to go home, just to be sent to another treatment center to be abused at for another full year. I came out with so many more problems than what I came in with. This is the problem with the troubled teen industry. Not every person has an experience like I did, but enough to make these treatment centers an extreme issue and injustice in our medical system. What could you expect when there s the possibility of making tens of thousands of dollars per child? Money proves to be the root of all evil time and time again.I m sure if your child is actually suffering from addiction or if you understand what your child is going through well this place could help. But otherwise, stay away from this place by a 10 foot pole. And the worst part was thought I was genuinely better for 3 years after until I came to reality on the Stockholm-type state I was in. It s only now that I m 22 years old after coming here when I was 16 that I ve actually been able to understand the mindset and abuse I was manipulated into receiving here.This place needs to be sued.

This place completely took advantage of my family and I and put me on a plethora of medications it took me YEARS to get off of. I was constantly degraded and told I would end up dead or in prison by 21 (I m 23 now and living a more happy and blessed life then I could ever imagine) and also wrongfully diagnosed me with severe personality disorders. Don t let this place use their scare tactics on you and only further traumatize you and your family.
