Our Programs
What Residential Treatment Involves
If you are resisting the idea of entering residential rehab, it may be because you do not realize that you have an alcohol or drug problem. There are a few simple tests that you can use to determine if you do. Ask yourself these questions:
Do you feel that you need a drink or a pill before facing certain situations, or even before starting the day? Does your life feel incomplete without alcohol or a drug? Have your family relationships suffered because of your drinking or your dependence on a pill?
If you said yes to any of those questions, then you are in the right place. It is rarely a good idea to try to recover on your own. Learn more about our luxury residential rehab program.
Integrative Care
Small, Private Homes in Malibu
Cliffside Malibu offers private residential rehab in California through four small licensed residences in Malibu. We are located in Malibu, California, on two acres of privately owned land. You will not have to worry about your confidentiality in our residential rehab; we will respect it in every way. We also offer you the best counselors and therapists that can be found. A few of them are especially able to understand what you are going through because they have been where you are – fighting a drug addiction of some sort. Seeing their success can help you become more determined to win your own battle.
Walking Alongside You in Recovery
Personalized Treatment Plans
At Cliffside Malibu, you are more than just a number or a case. We take pride in offering personalized care tailored to each individual in our residential program. You can trust that our dedication to your well-being will make a significant difference in your healing journey!
Because you are working through a substance use disorder, we will not try to force you into a pre-existing treatment plan. The point of residential rehab is not to rush you through a program, but to help you find your own way to achieve and maintain sobriety. For that reason, our trained counselors and therapists are eager to work with you to devise a personal treatment plan.
Every residential rehab plan needs to be tailored to the individual. We are one of the few rehab centers that do this at all levels of treatment. You can find therapy techniques from both the Western and Eastern hemispheres. We offer the services of an acupuncturist, an equine therapist, and opportunities for individual, family, and group therapies. Give us the chance to help you find your way to sobriety.
What We Offer
Alcohol Treatment in Residential Care
If you are addicted to alcohol, you need to enter a residential alcohol treatment program. It’s that simple; most people are unable to defeat this addiction without professional help. Seeking help says that you are strong enough to admit that you have a problem and that you are committed to beating that problem.
Our luxury residential rehab for alcohol use disorder includes medically-assisted detox by our on-staff medical team, individual, group, and family therapy programs. These group functions can help you see that you are not alone in your struggle. Every client here can contribute something valuable and can possibly encourage somebody else who has not yet reached the same level of success. Give yourself the chance to succeed.
Drug Treatment in Residential Care
In our residential rehab in California for drug addiction, you will take place in all three types of therapy: group, individual, and family. Each one of these therapies will yield great benefits, but family therapy is certainly one of the most important aspects of treatment here.
At Cliffside Malibu, we also offer detoxification help. Withdrawal from alcohol and some other substances can be dangerous, so detox should be medically supervised. The withdrawal symptoms of some drugs can be dangerous and even deadly. You will need professional help to make your detox as painless as possible.

Integrative Care
Family Involvement and Family Immersion
Overcoming addiction is a journey best taken with the support of others. While residential rehab is a crucial step, having a solid support system can make all the difference in achieving lasting recovery. Our continuing care programs are designed to offer you that extra layer of support, even after you leave our residential facility.
If your family relationships have been impacted, this is a wonderful opportunity to work on rebuilding those connections during your time in rehab. Remember, addiction can lead to actions that aren’t true to who you are, and your family understands that. Our family therapy program is here to facilitate healing and reconciliation, guided by experienced therapists who create a safe and constructive environment. Embracing your journey and reaching out to your family for support can be transformative.
Our complimentary Discovery365 tool is an innovative resource to help you stay on track post-treatment. This unique AI-powered platform provides ongoing assessments and check-ins to help you monitor your well-being for up to a year after treatment, when support is vital. With determination and support, you can confidently forge ahead on your recovery path!
