An addict suffering from depression can't get sober without first achieving meaningful emotional healing. The fact of the matter is that addiction is always at least in part a psychological disease, and addiction recovery must always be grounded in psychological wellness. If you're going to get better, in other words, you're going to have to get better from the inside-out, even if you have mental depression, in a way that allows you to feel comfortable in your own skin. Short of that, you can't ever expect to get where you need to go.
Many "exclusive" Southern California treatment centers ignore depression symptoms and the link between addiction and depression. But not Sunset Malibu. On the contrary, Sunset was founded on the principle that the only meaningful addiction treatment is that which helps a client get better in body as well as in spirit. As Sunset's successful graduates will tell you, whether you need psychotherapy or depression treatment, that sort of emphasis can make all the difference in the world.
Rehab is an exceptionally delicate process. It can only be successful if it's administered the right way, with a proper vision of the big picture. Sunset Malibu's clinical psychologists and licensed clinical social workers know how to make treatment work, whether it's a panic attack or chronic depression. More importantly, they know how to make it work for you, on your own terms. Here's hoping you'll be wise enough to let them prove it to you.
