Treatment At Passages Malibu
Conditions Treated
24-Hour Clinical Care:
At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.
Mental health treatment:
Mental health services are essential during treatment for drug and alcohol addiction, whether you receive treatment in an inpatient or outpatient setting. While receiving inpatient care, you can expect to have round-the-clock access to mental health therapists and medical staff. Additionally, you will likely receive a number of different therapies and mental health options like individual and group counseling, addiction and relapse prevention education, and coping skills training.
Alcoholism:
Alcohol addiction is a condition where someone feels a strong and uncontrollable urge to drink alcohol, often leading to negative effects on their health, relationships, and daily life. To assist individuals grappling with alcohol addiction, various strategies exist. Initially, supervised detoxification may be necessary to ensure a safe cessation of alcohol consumption. Following this, counseling and therapy play a crucial role in addressing the psychological facets of the addiction. Engaging in support groups can also offer a sense of camaraderie and comprehension.
Opioid Addiction:
Opioid addiction rehabilitation is a specialized treatment process tailored to address the unique challenges and complexities of opioid dependence, including drugs like heroin and prescriptions like oxycodone. The process typically begins with a medical detox to ease withdrawal symptoms, followed by therapeutic interventions to address the root causes of addiction. This holistic approach aims to provide individuals with the skills and support needed for long-term recovery from opioid use.
Substance use treatment:
Substance abuse treatment programs can help to address addiction and, if relevant, any co-occurring mental health conditions. Programs include outpatient, inpatient, dual-diagnosis, and partial hospitalization. The addict will receive therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy, or dialectical behavioral therapy, and sometimes complementary therapies like acupuncture and mindfulness-based therapy. By attending skills training and recovery groups you’ll build a strong foundation for your recovery and strengthen your support network, increasing your chances of long-term recovery success.
Co-occurring Disorders:
Dual-diagnosis rehabs are usually the appropriate solution to treat co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders. These facilities typically employ medical and behavioral experts who use a range of interventions, together with the right healing environment, for you to achieve and sustain long-term recovery. Treatment usually includes evidence-based therapies (like cognitive behavioral therapy), recovery support meetings, 12-step facilitation, psychoeducation, skills training, and group therapy.
Levels Of Care
Luxury Treatment:
Luxury rehab centers provide a premium and comfortable setting for individuals seeking addiction recovery and mental health treatment. Offering personalized care, serene surroundings, and amenities like spa treatments and gourmet dining, they blend expert support with a luxurious experience for holistic healing.
Detoxification:
Detoxification, often shortened to detox, is like giving the body a fresh start by getting rid of harmful substances like drugs or alcohol someone may have taken. When a person stops taking these substances, they might feel sick or uncomfortable as their body adjusts to the change. Detox helps ease these uncomfortable feelings while making sure the harmful substances are removed from the body in a safe way. This process helps prevent any additional harm caused by the drugs or alcohol.
Aftercare:
Finishing a drug or alcohol rehab program is not the conclusion of substance abuse treatment but rather a pivotal step toward long-term recovery. Aftercare encompasses devising a sustainable recovery plan coupled with enduring support. It may include sober living environments such as halfway houses, career counseling, and connecting patients with community support programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA). This holistic approach ensures a smooth transition into a substance-free life while bolstering resilience against relapse.
Hospital inpatient treatment:
Inpatient treatment involves a comprehensive residential therapeutic program where patients stay on-site for a duration typically ranging from 30 to 90 days. This immersive environment offers structured support, ensuring safety and a focus on recovery. Therapies provided include individual and group counseling, cognitive-behavioral therapy, holistic treatments, family therapy sessions, and experiential therapies. The aim is to address addiction or mental health disorders' physical, emotional, and psychological aspects, laying a robust foundation for sustained healing.
Hospital inpatient/24-hour hospital inpatient:
At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.
Treatment Modalities
Family counseling:
Family counseling is a therapeutic approach that addresses the dynamics, interactions, and challenges within a family unit. Through guided discussions and interventions, a trained counselor helps family members understand one another, resolve conflicts, improve communication, and strengthen their bonds. This form of therapy can be beneficial for families facing transitions, stressors, or behavioral issues, promoting understanding and facilitating positive change in the familial environment.
Individual psychotherapy:
Individual therapy, often referred to as psychotherapy or counseling, is a one-on-one therapeutic interaction between a trained therapist and a client. It provides a confidential space for individuals to explore their feelings, beliefs, and behaviors, working through challenging memories, experiences, or emotions. The therapist facilitates self-awareness, promotes personal growth and insight, and offers coping strategies to manage specific issues like stress, anxiety, depression, and other life challenges. The ultimate goal is to improve the individual's mental well-being and enhance their overall quality of life.
Group counseling:
Group Counseling is a therapeutic approach where individuals come together under the guidance of a trained counselor to share experiences, offer support, and gain insights. This collective format promotes mutual understanding and growth, allowing participants to learn from one another's perspectives and challenges.
Creative Arts Therapy:
Creative Arts Therapy is a therapeutic technique that harnesses the power of the arts— including visual arts, dance, music, and drama—to help individuals express themselves, explore their emotions, and improve their mental, emotional, and even physical well-being. Through engaging in the creative process under the guidance of a trained therapist, individuals can uncover and work through underlying issues, improve self-awareness, and develop coping skills in a safe and supportive environment. This form of therapy is used to treat a variety of mental health conditions and is beneficial for people of all ages.
Equine Therapy:
Equine therapy, also known as horse therapy or equine-assisted therapy, involves interactions between individuals and horses to promote emotional growth, healing, and cognitive skills. Often used as a therapeutic approach for those with physical, emotional, or psychological challenges, equine therapy leverages the bond between humans and horses to facilitate communication, trust, and self-awareness. Through activities like grooming, leading, and riding, participants can address various therapeutic goals, gain insight into their behaviors, and enhance their well-being.
Experiential Therapy:
Experiential Therapy is a therapeutic approach that emphasizes direct experience and active client involvement to gain insight into unresolved issues and trauma. Through guided activities, role-playing, and other interactive techniques, clients are encouraged to confront and explore their emotions in the present moment, leading to a deeper understanding and resolution of their challenges. This therapy is rooted in the belief that transformative change occurs through meaningful experiences.
Life Skills:
Life skills training encompasses a comprehensive set of abilities essential for individuals to thrive in society. These encompass time management, career guidance, financial acumen, and effective communication. In the context of addiction recovery, true success goes beyond mere abstinence; it's about flourishing. Life skills instruction equips individuals with the practical tools needed to navigate society successfully, paving the way for a fulfilling life and, consequently, lasting sobriety.
Marital/couples counseling:
Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.
Trauma-related counseling:
Trauma therapy addresses the underlying emotional and psychological wounds that may contribute to an individual's substance abuse. Through a combination of psychotherapy and coping strategies, individuals are aided in processing past traumatic experiences, understanding the impact of trauma on their current behavior, and developing healthier coping mechanisms. This holistic approach fosters resilience, aids in the resolution of trauma, and is fundamental in supporting individuals on their path toward sustained recovery from addiction.
Hypnotherapy:
Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic technique employed in some rehab centers to facilitate deeper self-awareness and promote positive behavioral change. By inducing a trance-like state of focused concentration and relaxation, trained hypnotherapists help clients access and address underlying beliefs, emotions, and memories related to addiction or other negative behaviors. This method can enhance traditional treatment approaches, aiding in stress reduction, improved self-control, and the reinforcement of healthier habits and thought patterns.
Fitness Therapy:
Fitness Therapy blends exercise with psychotherapy for a fun, inspiring, and effective way of treating addiction and other issues. By incorporating movement into counseling sessions, clients become more empowered, motivated, and goal-oriented, all while strengthening their bodies and becoming more flexible. Fitness Therapy is usually used to complement a course of treatment (inpatient or outpatient) to make it even more successful. Increasing the connection between a patient’s mind and body helps both with healing as well as in creating new, healthy habits.
Animal Therapy:
Animal therapy, also known as animal-assisted therapy (AAT), is a therapeutic intervention that incorporates animals, such as dogs, horses, or even birds, into the treatment plan to enhance and complement the benefits of traditional therapy. Utilized in various behavioral health settings, this approach taps into the bond between humans and animals to promote emotional growth, improve social skills, and alleviate psychological disorders. By interacting with animals, individuals often experience reduced anxiety, increased feelings of comfort, and enhanced self-awareness. Whether used as a primary or supplementary treatment, animal therapy offers unique healing potential in the journey toward mental and emotional well-being.
Intervention Services:
Intervention Services are professional services aimed at addressing and amending harmful behaviors or situations, primarily in individuals struggling with addiction or other serious issues. These services guide and support both individuals and their loved ones through the intervention process, wherein a structured, solution-oriented conversation is held to encourage the individual to accept help and make positive changes towards recovery. By blending compassionate understanding with a well-formulated approach, intervention services play a crucial role in bridging the gap between acknowledgment of an issue and taking the initial steps towards resolution.
Holistic Treatment:
Holistic treatment in a rehab center encompasses a comprehensive approach to recovery, addressing an individual's physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual needs. Rather than focusing solely on the symptoms of addiction, this method seeks to treat the underlying causes and imbalances that contribute to substance abuse. Incorporating a variety of therapies, such as meditation, yoga, acupuncture, and nutritional counseling, holistic treatment aims to heal the whole person, ensuring a well-rounded and sustainable recovery journey.
Non 12-Step:
Non 12-step programs promote a non-religious approach to rehab, and avoid calling addiction a disease (as traditional 12-step programs do). Instead, non-12-step programs emphasize scientific evidence when it comes to both treatment and recovery, and adapt to new addiction research as it comes out. Non-12-step programs stress the importance of self-reliance and empowerment (rather than dependence on a higher power, as in traditional 12-step programs). Non-12-step programs also tend to focus on co-occurring mental illnesses, if present. Addiction can make a mental health issue worse, and vice versa, so it's important to address both.
Sound Therapy:
Sound Therapy is a therapeutic practice that uses sound and music to support individuals in achieving improved emotional, mental, and physical well-being. This modality often employs a variety of musical instruments, vocalizations, and technologies to produce soundscapes that can promote relaxation, emotional release, and mental clarity. Through guided sessions, individuals can explore the healing potential of sound, benefiting from a sense of inner harmony and a deeper connection to the world around them. Sound therapy can be an integral part of a holistic approach to wellness, promoting balance, stress reduction, and self-awareness.
