After a previous stint in rehab, I found Seasons in Malibu as my next (and final!) landing spot on my sobriety journey. When I arrived, my anxiety was quickly put to ease thanks to the welcoming staff and comfortable, clean facilities. Most importantly, the treatment I received over the next 30 days was tailored perfectly to my situation and very effective. I feel very fortunate to have found this place and allowing the friendly, knowledgable staff to assist me in starting a new, exciting chapter in my life.

Seasons Malibu is a Stellar Behavioral Health Care Facility which I wholehearted endorse in Southern California. It’s small intimate setting coupled with specialized tracks for professionals, , adults experiencing mental health problems and adults experiencing both a substance use disorder and mental health malady is exemplary. Their therapeutic staff which is comprised of all PHD’s is approachable, knowledgeable and creates a haven for clients to grow.What I like most about Seasons Malibu is their attention to detail, starting with their admissions staff who can work hand in hand with the referent and their families. They are clearly able to articulate what they can and cannot do and if the client is the right fit or not. Whether it’s a female executive, , politician , mother, airplane doctor , college student or retiree, Seasons has demonstrated to me the depth and breadth to join up, start where my client is and to help them navigate their way towards health and wellness.

have been in Seasons Malibu for over 40 days, I came here specifically for alcohol dependence, which was having a negative effect over all areas of my life. I came in fearful, in need of a positive life direction to move forward. I was welcomed here to a nurturing, caring environment where all of the staff was supportive, invested in their clients success. This has been a once in a lifetime experience- they have helped me regain my identity, embrace a new life of sobriety, the challenges that come with it and have helped bring out all of the best in me on a day to day basis. The whole treatment team is comprehensive, caring and knowledgeable about recovery and truly gets into causes and conditions to why we resort to a life of addiction. Seasons has truly changed my life and I’m forever grateful for my experience, the relationships I’ve made here.Anyone in need of help, I would strongly recommend and encourage everyone to come here, it will be a wonderful experience for you,

I arrived at Seasons Malibu an addicted, broken, and abused child. I leave today whole, clean, as a woman with a loud voice; proud and tall. The module that seasons has successfully implemented not only for me but countless others who came before and have yet to come is extraordinary. From all the staff who work tirelessly on our behalf quietly behind the scenes. To the extraordinary peaceful and tranquil setting all make recovery possible if we want it. I am incredibly grateful for this outstanding experience. A million blessings for illuminating the dark night sky - You enabled me to light my own constellation - Star by star by star.
