Our Healing Philosophy
At The Beach Cottage at Seasons in Malibu, we believe mental health is best treated systemically. In other words, as a client, it is not just about “fixing” you, but looking at the entire system, such as your family, your job and daily stressors, which can contribute to your emotional well-being. Your mental health is best treated from the biological, physiological, cognitive and spiritual lens by which we cooperatively address.
At our Malibu mental health treatment facility, we hold ourselves accountable to our results. That is why we are constantly working to ensure that your symptoms are being addressed by the most cutting edge and successful treatment modalities available. Not to mention, by a team of highly skilled professionals.
We believe:
- Our goal is to develop a treatment staff and a treatment community that continually strives to improve and learn about our craft. We hire only the most experienced and talented industry professionals from across the country. We therefore have a team that is more efficient and competent than almost anyone else in the world.
- We treat our customers and their families with respect by offering consumer-friendly multi-tiered pricing. We see many mental health treatment centers using the crisis of behavioral health to take advantage of client families in their time of greatest need; this is a practice that we consider to be unethical.
- The tracking and publication of treatment outcomes enable us to hold ourselves and other treatment providers accountable.
- During the crisis of mental illness, clients and their families may be able to embrace positive changes that will make a lasting and positive impact on their lives. We must also keep in mind that we have a limited amount of time with you and that it must be utilized as efficiently as possible.
- We understand that mental health is a complex condition and requires a comprehensive understanding of various factors such as genetics, the environment and individual experience. That is why it is imperative to educate mental health professionals and other supporting staff on the latest advancements in the field, research and techniques. This can be achieved by investing in ongoing learning, reading, publishing and contributing to the state-of-the-art knowledge in the field.
- Mental health must be treated with empathy, dignity and without judgement. Treatment must focus on serious commitment, a personalized plan, ongoing support and follow-up care.
- We respect our patients and understand mental illness is a serious issue and not an inconsistent character. In order to break the shame cycle, we believe that it is essential to address the health of systems that surround the patient rather than focusing on the behavior.
- The most critical time is once you leave treatment, which is why each client will have a comprehensive and well thought out aftercare plan, incorporating short term and long term goals that can be successfully achieved.
