About Malibu Detox and Residential Treatment Center
Malibu Detox and Residential Treatment Center offers personalized addiction treatment options to individuals in Topanga, California. The facility treats addictions to substances such as alcohol, meth, heroin and prescription drugs. The programs available include a medical detox program and aftercare services.
Comprehensive Detox Services For Safe Withdrawal
The facility understands that different addictions require different treatments, which is why their detox services are customized to each individual’s needs. The staff will review what substances you were addicted to, your medical history and prior treatments to determine how they can best assist you in the detox process.
You’ll be monitored by the staff 24 hours a day to ensure your comfort and safety. The withdrawal symptoms you may experience during detox include body aches, mood changes and muscle cramping.
Malibu Detox and Residential Treatment Centers will use addiction medicine to relieve you of your withdrawal symptoms if necessary. While you’re undergoing detox, you’ll also receive nutritional support, group therapy, and individual counseling. The process typically lasts anywhere between seven to 14 days.
Comfortable Care and Evidence Based Therapies
When you’ve completed detox, your recovery will continue in residential treatment. Clients stay in a home like environment with living spaces that are furnished and decorated. The facility is surrounded by natural scenery that can help promote self reflection and healing.
When you start your recovery journey outside of the facility, you can enjoy sober activities such as hiking at Topanga State Park or Red Rock Canyon Park. You’ll be treated with a variety of evidence based therapies such as motivational interviewing, recreational therapy, and experiential therapy. Clients will develop healthy coping mechanisms and learn new skills to prevent them from relapsing.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We strive to provide the best treatment possible, and it means so much to read this.
This program gave me an immence amount of understanding about my underlying issues, (alcohol use is only a symptom), and clear guidance about what to do about it, what to expect, and how to do it. If you re considering using this program, I highly recommend you come here. Many of my peers had bad experiences elsewhere, but are fully immersed here. Here s the catch . If you re looking for a vacation that will achieve sobriety, you should not attend this program. This is work, all day, every day. But it works. Get ready for a transformation!

Accepted Insurance
Other Forms of Payment
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

Medically 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.

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.
24-Hour Clinical Care During the first phase of recovery – detox – it is crucial to have 24-hour clinical care in California.

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.
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.
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.
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
Clinical Services
Cognitive behavioral therapy in California is a method that therapists often use for the effective treatment of substance use disorders. It is based on the principle that substance abuse stems from unhelpful ways of thinking and patterns of behavior, which can be changed by helping the individual learn better ways of coping.
While participating in dialectical behavior therapy in California, you'll focus on four key areas of skill development: mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance. Treatment includes weekly individual and group sessions.
Equine TherapyDuring group therapy, men and women learn to express their emotions openly in a non judgmental setting. This helps you process your feelings and reduces feelings of social isolation that are often associated with addiction.
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.
The goal of creative arts therapy in California is to encourage growth and transformation. It can be used in individual and group settings with both children and adults. Options include movement, music, and painting.
The use of experiential therapy can be helpful for the treatment of behavioral disorders, including drug and alcohol addiction.
