Avalon Malibu

Contact Details

There are a lot of treatment programs in the Los Angeles area but only a few are quality. Avalon is the very best at what they do. They actually care about the client. I always feel confident when I send a client to Avalon. I know they will be treated with the best care. I would send a family member there. Their staff is THE BEST!

As a professional in the field, I place tremendous value on identifying programs that only operate from a high ethical standard and provide clinical excellence when referring a client or family. Avalon Malibu far exceeds all expectation. From their highly trained, dedicated, and compassionate staff to their pristine grounds and breathtaking views, Avalon Malibu is the creme de la creme.

The grounds are incredible, the views spectacular, and the food is far better than most restaurants. Avalon Malibu treats Dual Diagnosis Substance Abuse as well as Primary Mental Health in two magnificent homes overlooking the Pacific ocean in Malibu. The Avalon team is made up of caring and dedicated individuals who will make you feel extremely comfortable even on your worst day. This is by far one of the safest places to get real help.

I recently toured the intensive outpatient program in June 2018 and I am very impressed. The clinical and intake team are simply fantastic to work with especially Dia and Kelly. The staff is extremely caring, responsive and completely committed to the recovery.

RONNIE IS THE BEST! He has a great heart, cares about you and bends over backwards if you need anything. Only flaw is id you give him a taste of your chocolate bar, he will end up eating 2/3s of it before he is finished 'tasting' 😛

I entered Avalon 82 days ago severely depressed, addicted to drugs and alcohol and completely broken and hopeless. The staff welcomed me with open arms and has truly saved my life.The accommodations, food, amenities, views...all were amazing and I immediately felt comfortable with the all the staff from the directors, the chef, the RA's, drivers, you name it...everyone that works here is so caring and fabulous. When you come in you are immediately assigned a practitioner and a psychiatrist...I was a late admission but neither of these doctors had me wait till morning and they both were on the phone with me till the wee hours of the night/early morning easing my withdrawal fears and answering every single question I had to make sure I was absolutely comfortable with medications and all that I may need until they could see me in person the next day. The counselors and therapists who run the daily groups are by far the most intuitive, knowledgeable and caring clinical staff members I have experienced in a residential setting (and I have been in a few rehabs before this). Both my individual therapist and my family therapist have helped me beyond words. I came to Avalon with many, many issues...sexual assault and trauma from the past, binge eating disorder, bipolar depression, anxiety disorder and alcohol and drug addiction. Avalon has been able to help me treat all of these and get down to the real core issue underneath so much of the pain that I have experienced for decades. I am still here at Avalon, I will get 90 days sober next week and plan to extend beyond that as I know I still have work I need to do. I can honestly say that Avalon was the best decision I have made in many years, I came here wanting to get better but not knowing how or even where to start and they have given me all that and more. I am so grateful to be able to create such a beautiful, sound and healthy foundation here and I encourage anyone considering Avalon to come take a tour, meet the staff and if you truly want to heal and do the work to have a better life.....this place works!!!

The best health treatment facility you could ever hope to imagine. Compared to Aurora Vista Del Mar in Ventura that is run by the devil himself, Avalon Malibu treats their patients with kindness and sincerity. I'm currently on Day 4 of 30 of curing my depression and marijuana abuse, and already feel changed. I know that there's still a little less than 4 weeks of this left, so I want to document my thoughts and feelings here not only to illicit a response from whoever reads this and is so inclined to do so, but a journal I can look back upon and see the evolution that takes place within me by day 30. By that day I really hope to reawaken my passions and then work on them at full force. Thank you Avalon Malibu, you do all of your patients an incredibly gracious service. Six stars

Three words "take a tour" this place is amazing truly a healing sanctuary.
