An Elite Alcohol Treatment Program Offers Luxury and the Best Care Possible

[Malibu, CA] - Sunset Malibu, an elite treatment clinic on the California coast, has long been a transformational force in the field of rehabilitation and recovery. Now, Sunset is announcing its redoubled efforts in the fight against the psychological underpinnings of addiction.

Addiction is never strictly a physical disease. On the contrary, addiction victims are prone to negative patterns of thought and behavior, which can act to entrench and exacerbate their substance dependencies. The practical implication, of course, is that addiction treatment programs must always promote emotional wellness. In the end, there's simply no other way to guarantee the success of the healing process.

Those considerations, in turn, are at the heart of Sunset Malibu's holistic treatment philosophy.

With its world-class caregivers and elegant accommodations, Sunset Malibu is an unparalleled recovery destination. The drug and alcohol treatment center has always catered to upscale clients from every corner of the globe. Now Sunset is renewing its commitment to its core values, with the goal of delivering life-changing, comprehensive care to individuals who seek it. At Sunset Malibu, the client's holistic needs always come first.

"There's no such thing as partial addiction recovery," said Sunset Malibu program director Dr. Georgina Smith. "We understand that healing has to occur both in the body and the mind, which is why we use special dual-diagnosis techniques to assess each client's substance dependency in conjunction with his or her psychiatric wellness. It's also, we believe, why we've been so successful in our treatment efforts."

Unfortunately, the same praise can't be given to Sunset's competitors.

Most treatment centers pay lip service to the importance of holistic recovery. But very few of them put in their own principles into practice. In fact, many of the most high-priced clinics in California pay only nominal attention to the psychological needs of their clients. As should perhaps be obvious, those institutions routinely fail to effect meaningful and lasting recovery.

Dr. Smith, for her part, insists that those shortcomings are unforgivable.

"Addiction ruins lives," Dr. Smith said. "Addiction treatment can save them, but only if it's administered exactly the right way. At Sunset Malibu, we understand that our clients trust us to safeguard their future, and we stop at nothing to ensure that we justify their faith."

Addiction victims know all too well how devastating the disease can be. The good news is that that devastation doesn't have to be the end of the story. Sunset Malibu's clinical psychologists and licensed clinical social workers have a long history of helping clients rebuild their lives from the ground-up. For Sunset's residents and their families, the future really does promise to be brighter than the present.
