Alcohol Rehab and Detox in Malibu, California

Conditions We Treat

Alcohol use disorder is not the occasional misuse of wine, liquor, or beer. Sometimes people overindulge. But if your drinking is creating consequences greater than a once-a-year New Year’s Day headache, it’s time to get help. If family, friends, or coworkers are suggesting that you might have a problem, you probably do.

What makes alcohol use disorder so dangerous is that it overrides almost every other need or emotion. It makes people crave alcohol at the expense of their health, basic needs, and happiness. The mind is so consumed by its desire for another drink that it can be impossible to change without professional health. Often, when people try to overcome alcohol use disorder on their own, it’s far too easy to give in to that craving.

Recognizing that you have a problem and deciding to make a change are important steps, but choosing treatment is an important step on the road to recovery. Cliffside Malibu is one of the top premier alcohol rehab programs in California specializing in the Stages of Change model.

Getting Qualified Care

Alcohol Use Disorder: When It Is Time to Get Help

The type of help you choose is a huge factor in how effective your recovery will be. At Cliffside Malibu, you’ll get qualified help from a professional treatment team, with therapist caseloads of about six patients, 24/7 licensed nursing, a program built on the Stages of Change model and our Family Immersion program.

Too many facilities offer an uncomfortable environment and staff with little experience who may have only recently recovered themselves. You deserve to be treated with dignity, comfort, and genuinely qualified help from experienced alcohol treatment professionals.

What We Help With

Helping a Loved One With Alcohol Use Disorder

Facing an intervention can be difficult, but it’s often the first thing someone goes through before getting alcohol addiction treatment. As you’re coming in for help, you may still be wondering why you’re facing all this or how you got to this point. You may have heard bad stories from other treatment programs or worry about going through detox. The great thing about getting treatment from a professional luxury residential facility, like at Cliffside Malibu, is that all these questions and more will be addressed. Remember that after facing your loved ones and yourself, the most important thing you can do is accept help.

How to Choose an Alcohol Treatment Center

One of the first questions people ask after deciding to get help is how do you know whether any individual alcohol use disorder treatment center is right for you? Ultimately, the answer lies in what the treatment center’s goals are and what they do to achieve them. There are a variety of unique programs and facilities, and the methods they use will ultimately affect the results you’ll get. If you’re going to get sober, you need a center with programs that can give you the support you need.

Our Program

Residential Alcohol Rehab in Malibu

Until recently, it was believed that alcohol use disorder was a purely physical condition. In other words, it was thought that once a person was free from physical dependency that was all that could be done to help them. More recently, we’ve come to understand that alcohol use disorder has a mental and emotional side that’s equally, if not more, important. Part of what makes our programs so successful is that we work to address the psychological side of addiction with highly skilled and qualified therapeutic specialists. Our residential programs make it so that you have the space and comfort to work out these issues without living under the stress of everyday life.

Cliffside Malibu offers a sprawling and beautiful residential resort on two acres of land overlooking the Pacific Ocean. It’s the perfect place to work on becoming sober and readjusting to daily life. Between our various rehab, therapy, and counseling programs you can spend your time watching HD TV, swimming laps in our pool, relaxing in the Jacuzzi, exercising with a personal trainer, or simply take it easy in our luxurious accommodations. It’s never easy overcoming an addiction, but with the level of care we provide you can face your obstacles in an easygoing environment with help every step of the way.

How we Help

Alcohol Withdrawal and Medical Detox

Alcohol withdrawal can range from uncomfortable to life-threatening. Symptoms may include shaking, sweating, anxiety and trouble sleeping, and in serious cases, seizures and delirium tremens (DTs), a severe state of confusion that requires emergency care. That’s why alcohol detox should always happen under medical supervision.

At Cliffside Malibu, your physician sees you every day during detox, and licensed nurses are on site around the clock to monitor your progress and keep you safe and comfortable.

If you or someone you love is withdrawing from alcohol and has a seizure, hallucinations or severe confusion, call 911 right away.

Personalized Care

The Stages of Change Model for Alcohol Use

At Cliffside Malibu, we base our individualized treatment plans on the Stages of Change model. The Stages of Change model, created by James O. Prochaska and Carlo DiClemente at the University of Rhode Island, illustrated how those seeking to recover from addiction go through a series of “stages” that allowed them ultimately to transcend their addictions and maintain sobriety. This means that we meet you where you are mentally, physically and spiritually, helping you to overcome the deep-rooted issues that have caused your addiction to flourish.

The staff of Cliffside Malibu was personally trained by Prochaska on this powerful treatment model. It is the hallmark of our treatment program. Learn more about the Stages of Change.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does alcohol detox take?

Alcohol detox usually takes about a few days to a week. Symptoms often peak within the first two to three days. The exact length depends on how much and how long you’ve been drinking and on your overall health, and your physician will adjust your plan as you go.

Is it safe to stop drinking at home?

For many people, no. Alcohol withdrawal can cause seizures and delirium tremens, which can be life-threatening. Talk with a doctor or our admissions team before you stop, so you can detox safely under medical care. If someone has a seizure, hallucinations or severe confusion, call 911.

Does insurance cover alcohol rehab?

Often, yes. We accept most private insurance plans, and admissions will verify your benefits for free before you’re admitted. Many PPO plans also pay part of out-of-network treatment. We can’t promise coverage until we verify your benefits.

Can I take time off work for alcohol rehab?

Many people can. The federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) may give eligible employees up to 12 weeks of job-protected, unpaid leave for treatment. Check with your HR department about your options. After the first 72 hours, you can use your devices during off-programming hours to stay in touch with work.
