At Seasons In Malibu we agree with the leading scientists and doctors of the National Institute for Drug Addiction that addiction is a completely treatable chronic disease. We believe it is best addressed not just at the individual level of behavior but systemically from the cellular systems to the systems of neurobiology of the brain and the individual, to the family systems and social networks, and to the larger societal systems at work.
Seasons In Malibu has been at the forefront of cutting-edge addiction recovery, attracting the finest professionals in all areas of addiction medicine and treatment. The medical, psychiatric, and psychotherapy staff members at Seasons In Malibu are among the best in their fields-many of whom have been called upon to provide their expert opinions and insights by the national media and academic publications.

I cannot say enough good things about the care I received at Seasons. When I first arrived, I was scared and had no idea what to expect. I was treated with such care and kindness from the time I arrived that I felt comforted, and was sure I had come to the right place. The place is beautiful, but the real treasure is the staff. They are all simply amazing. They clearly have a ton of knowledge and experience in treating addiction and it shows, but they are also very empathetic. I could tell they knew what I was going through, and I soon felt reassured that I was going to be OK.

Every single person is warm, so helpful, so genuine, so accommodating, and completely without judgement. And the team of therapists-my goodness. Absolute professionals and so kind, so skilled. They have assembled a dynamite team of caring and talented people. They treat people as individuals with a holistic approach. They focus on much more than the surface level addition or mental health diagnosis you present with. This is so important for lasting recovery. Bonus- the environment is beautiful and the food is fantastic. Highly recommended!

I'll start by saying that this is one of the most legit rehabs within California. The connection they make between mental health and addiction is a crucial part to why my time there was worth every bit of it. Their operations to dive into these two fields is pretty much a best bet scenario of getting to the root of peoples suffering in my opinion.

I had a major struggle in my addiction. I was on a very thin thread of losing my family and tearing them apart because of my drug usage. I found this place, at first I was scared but I knew I needed treatment to fix and repair the damage I have caused. This place was amazing, it was beyond belief of what they have done for me while I was under their care. The staff was truly amazing to be around. From everything- Admission, techs, clinical therapist, chefs, house keepers. I stayed there for 30 days and extended my stay because I saw how much growth I was making.

I was a patient at Seasons for 30 days and it completely changed my life. 4 years ago I found my son dead. I had seen local counselors, therapists, grief specialists, and psychiatrists. I was wallowing, just getting by. I supplemented my prescription depression meds with alcohol. The multi faceted approach Seasons employed helped me make a complete 360' turn about. The staff is exceptional. The psychological techniques... that I'd never been exposed to, were phenomenal. It was tough work, digging down to my core. I'm a much stronger person and actual member of society now. I&apos

I found Season to be the perfect solution and environment to treat my alcohol addiction. I spent a combined 90 days in the program, and it was a game-changer. Like any facility, it's not perfect, but the overall experience helped me accomplish my sobriety and restoring my mental balance. They will work with you on a customized program, and you have the time and freedom to have your own space. I loved many of the staff as they became good supporters and were respectful. One of the best aspects was getting to know the other people in the program that helped take the edge off. It was a positive

We signed up my daughter back in September of 2020 and paid more than an average person would make in one year for a 30 day treatment. If you are looking for a "vacation" spot to enjoy the ocean view and get massages and be fed by a famous cook, you came to the right place. If you are looking for a facility for mental health related matters and want to be treated, you might want to rethink it. The best thing that happened was my daughter was hospitalized because they were not equipped to deal with her. The director and onsite staff were rude hanging up when my daughter called to find out where

Seasons, and its absolutely INCREDIBLE staff helped me through one of the toughest times in my life. Thanks to them, and some good old fashioned hard work on my part I was able to build the foundation to my recovery. My family and I were shown respect, and support every step of the way. I feel extremely lucky, and fortunate to have been able to spend time at this facility with this team.

I had an amazing experience at Seasons in Malibu. From the moment I arrived everyone was welcoming and accommodating. I felt completely cared for and was treated with the utmost respect and kindness. The staff's knowledge and ability to connect individually with each client is beyond comparison. My treatment program encompassed a unique balance of healing and growth mentally, physically and spiritually. The program at Seasons coupled with hard work gave me the tools to be successful and solidified my desire to be healthy and well.

Fantastic treatment center with a high end staff and top notch program. A close friend of mine fell into addiction and my friends and I had no idea what to do. We called in to Seasons Malibu and were quickly connected with the admissions team. Kathryn answered the phone and explained that she was the admissions coordinator - she walked us through every step of the process and answered every question (we had a lot of them) that we asked. She promptly connected us with an interventionist who helped us get our friend to finally get help. We connected back with the admissions team and were introduced

I'll keep this short and simple. Seasons in Malibu should not be allowed to operate as a rehabilitation and mental health facility. It's a poor business that does not care about the well being of the clients and instead focuses on how much money they can gain out of you. I had a family member attend Seasons and she was treated poorly from the very start. I went on Yelp to write a review so others are aware of the poor experience we had. I can't say I'm shocked to be reading that many others had a negative experience as well!

This place is horrible. Horrible. I made a call to get help. Obviously these reviews r fake. They said they were very empty n I could have any room? After I gave him my insurance information he said the rudest thing. He said , we don't accept Medicare ???? What??? I don't have Medicare u fool!! I have ppo insurance. Nice way to treat someone who needs help. I didn't even realize how bad our healthcare system is until now. This place is so disgusting.

10 out off 10!! Seasons at Malibu is an outstanding addictions recovery facility. A comprehensive recovery model that includes intense one on one counselling, meditation, hypnotherapy, spirituality, message, and family support, the Seasons program leaves no stone unturned. From the moment we called admissions to enquire about their approach to addiction recovery, to the comprehensive after care support program, our family has been treated with respect, understanding and have been given a clear understanding of Seasons well thought out objectives. My brave son entered the program in early February

I was a client here in 2014. I spent the recommended full 3 months and followed it up immediately by going into a recommended sober living facility. First off it’s a business, so yes they have an executive team that focuses on getting paid and making a profit. It’s not cheap to run these places and they aren’t in business to lose money or break even. That being said, the staff that engages with clients is phenomenal. They are all there bc they want to help people get better and if a client shows desire and willingness they will go above and beyond to help that client. I was a nightmare at

This was my first experience finding a rehabilitation site for my son. After reading many reviews, I felt confident that Seasons was the best choice for our family. My son completed 28 days at Seasons Agoura, and I can already see a big difference in his outlook on his future. I attended a family therapy session with him, and being a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist, I was hoping that she would be experienced and qualified in her area of specialty. I was not disappointed. I learned so much from just one session. Everyone who works at Seasons is committed and knowledgeable, and the multi

I recently completed treatment at Seasons and it was an amazing experience. I have attended several other inpatient facilities and Seasons is by far the most comprehensive and caring place I have ever been. The staff are not only very knowledgeable on substance abuse disorders, but also dig deeper into the causes and core issues that may cause relapse or use. I have gained many new tools to help combat my addiction when I return to my daily life. I have also received thoughtful recommendations on continuing care which I plan on implementing.

Where luxury meets rehabilitation is my motto for this place. Its incredibly difficult to get clean if you dont change your overall habits and lifestyle. It wasnt easy for me before and it wont be easy for me tomorrow but with the right groups and habit formations i finally feel as if I can keep and stay clean after my experience with seasons malibu. Dr. Shilatii was an absolute godsend and really kickstarted my sobriety during my addiction treatment.

When I reached out to Seasons in Malibu, I was pleasantly surprised about the level of concern and care for my loved one. They were patient in hearing my story and why we needed the time to make sure we found the right placement. There was nothing pushy about their tactics and frankly, it was me that kept calling back to ask more questions. By the third or fourth call over the course of a month, the admissions team was familiar and more than accommodating. Finally, when my loved one checked in, we all felt very nervous and read way too many horror stories online. Upon arrival, we were immediately

If you want a beautiful setting, yoga, acupuncture, massages, personal chef, hiking...this is the place for you if you don't mind spending thousands of dollars a week.
If you really need help...I mean truly need help to recover from drugs or alcohol I would suggest a more tough love place and save the cash.
I do believe most there were really trying to help but I also know that there were a couple people that took advantage of my loved one.
