    I am a former client at Seasons. I am incredibly grateful for my experience at Seasons. The clinicians helped me identify my triggers and dramas that lead to my substance abuse. I was taught healthy coping skills and resilience skills to help me process my emotions in a healthy way. The house, staff and chef exceeded my expectations. I am living a sober healthy life today and so much of that is because of Seasons!

From the moment I first contacted them seeking help, their team demonstrated a level of care, professionalism customized approach that immediately put me at ease. The facility itself is well-maintained, providing a comfortable and welcoming environment conducive to healing and recovery. The staff are not only highly qualified and experienced but also genuinely compassionate and supportive. I cannot thank Seasons enough for their dedication and expertise. They have truly made a positive impact on my life and the lives of all my loved ones. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone seeking effective and compassionate services for treating addiction and/or mental health.

      In short, Seasons in Malibu changed my life. I was there for 90 days and every person, every day helped me recover from the depression I was in. Every person who works at Seasons comes from a place of wanting the clients to succeed and it creates an environment of support that leads to healing and recovery from the mental issues and/or addictions that brought you there.

      Every day, your schedule includes multiple one-on-one sessions. They offer a wide range of modalities and each practitioner embodies their work so completely and believes in the work so deeply that one cannot help but come away feeling a positive change. The different modalities add up to a wholistic change in yourself by taking on issues from a number of entry points - emotional, spiritual, physical.

      At first, I was skeptical about a few of the modalities but the practitioners were so well educated and dedicated to their work that I my attitude changed and I reaped the rewards in my recovery. Aga, my case manager was invested from the first session we had together and has kept in touch with me after I discharged. My therapist Dr. ** is the most talented, insightful therapist as I've had. Also, the COO, Dr. Shilati made herself available for any issues or concerns.

      It is not necessarily a 12 step recovery center but there are so many people who work there that are in 12 step recovery and literature available that it can feel that way if you are looking for it. They offer transportation every morning and evening to 12 step meetings. Including access to Monday through Friday morning meetings on the beach. The location is Lifeguard Tower 10. Lastly, the facilities are of a 5 Star hotel and the chefs who prepare lunch and dinner every day are supremely talented providing a wide variety of multi-course meals.

      Seasons was my second attempt at rehab for a disease that has haunted me for 25 years. The first rehab I tried 6 years prior was not my choice, so it wasn't surprising that it didn't stick. This time, I was determined to leave with a clear understanding of why I drink, what to do in the real world when temptations hit, and how I could live a sober life.

      The 1-1 psychological sessions that explored the depths of my childhood trauma, marriage, parenting, career, spirituality and self-esteem, clarified why I sought to numb-out with alcohol. More importantly, I gained powerful insight into my brain and behavior so I could respond and self-soothe without the bottle. Additionally, the overlay of psychiatric treatment stabilized my anxiety so I could create new neural pathways for relief that were easy to replicate in my daily routine. If you are literally "sick and tired" of using, and want sustaining relief and recovery, please, please, invest in yourself and reserve a spot at Seasons ASAP. 30 days goes by faster than you can imagine and you can't put a price on your health and wellness. I kid you not...I never imagined I would feel this amazing and hopeful.

      I came to Seasons Dec 1, 2023 and stayed 2 months. My experience was profoundly life-changing. Starting from the top all the way down to each and every doctor and practitioner, I could tell immediately that they hired the best team possible. The program felt extremely effective because they paired me with the right fit of doctors and practitioners that had experience with the type of trauma/addictions I had. They were very thoughtful and meticulous in the way our program was experienced by meeting as an entire team on a regular basis to make sure everyone knew how progress was being made and what was happening all the time with the clients. I felt seen and heard and paid attention to on a regular basis and they provided me with everything I needed. I would strongly recommend Seasons to anyone and everyone who asks me for a recommendation. I hope I never have to go back, but if I needed treatment again… I would go to Seasons.

      Could not recommend Seasons more to anyone considering! Was in a rough spot before coming there and they helped get me through the hardest parts of my addiction and then, more importantly, address the underlying issues/traumas I had been coping with in negative ways. Despite feeling very ready to re-enter the world, I was very bummed to say goodbye to the staff whom I had gotten so close with - truly awesome and loving people who helped me so much.

      I spent some time at Seasons during the Summer/Fall of 2023 and it was certainly a life changing experience. I am so grateful for the opportunity to get help, and I am so glad that I chose to receive it from Seasons. They truly are a dual-diagnosis program, and if you are suffering from addiction, they really work hard at getting to the root of the problem. I did a lot of research prior to choosing which treatment center to go to, and Seasons checked all of the boxes and I was not disappointed. If there is something that disappoints you, it is very easy to advocate for yourself.

      Dr. ** runs a great program; the doctors and clinicians are top-notch and there are a variety of modalities that can help you with whatever you're struggling with. They work well with your family and any external doctors you may have. All of the staff are incredibly caring and compassionate. The food is great and you are welcome to go to the beach for walks or AA meetings, but nothing is forced. I am so happy that I went to Seasons in Malibu and I would recommend it to anyone. Every dollar spent was worth it and I miss it everyday!

      Before entering Seasons I read reviews that said this program saved their lives. It gave me hope, but I didn't fully believe it because it seemed too good to be true. Now that I've completed the program I can 100% say it saved my life.
