What to Expect from Rehab

Understanding the Process

Drug and alcohol addiction affect countless lives, often with consequences that aren’t fully understood at the outset. If you or someone you care about is ready to regain control, entering treatment could be the first–and most important–step toward lasting recovery.

At Serenity Malibu, we recognize that uncertainty can be one of the most challenging parts of beginning rehab. That’s why we prioritize clarity, comfort, and support from the very beginning.

Before Entering Rehab: What to Consider

Having a clear understanding of what to expect can ease anxiety. We offer a guided tour of our facility to help you get familiar with our process, amenities, and environment. Here are some common questions to think about as you prepare:

• How long will my treatment last?
• Can a friend or family member accompany me?
• What types of treatment will I receive?
• Can the facility accommodate special dietary needs (vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, kosher, etc.)?
• What items should I bring with me?

We encourage you to make a list of questions in advance so you don’t forget anything during your tour. Our dedicated team of counselors, doctors, and therapists is here to make you feel as comfortable and supported as possible–like a home away from home.

What to Expect During Treatment

From the moment you arrive, our compassionate and highly trained staff will be by your side. Serenity Malibu is one of the few luxury rehab centers offering personalized, one-on-one care in an exclusive and serene environment. This individualized attention is part of what sets us apart.

Immediate Attention: Your First Step

Upon arrival, you’ll undergo a thorough medical assessment and intake exam. This allows us to design a recovery program tailored specifically to your needs. While every successful treatment shares common principles, we know that each client connects with recovery in a unique way. Your progress will be reviewed regularly and your treatment plan adjusted to ensure optimal results.

Your Personalized Treatment Plan

Your treatment plan is developed based on a full evaluation of your substance use history, medical condition, and emotional health. We integrate a variety of treatment modalities, including therapeutic counseling and medical detox if needed. Because every addiction story is different, we take a flexible and individualized approach, all aimed at the same goal: breaking the cycle of addiction and helping you build a new, healthy life.

Integrating Physical Wellness

Physical activity plays a key role in the recovery process. We incorporate activities such as:

• Hiking
• Tennis
• Surfing
• Kayaking

In addition, we offer a range of holistic therapies, including:

• Acupuncture
• Yoga
• Meditation
• Art therapy
• Music therapy

These practices promote healing not just of the body, but of the mind and spirit, supporting a balanced and centered recovery.

Preventing Relapse

Relapse prevention is an essential part of our program. Addiction is a chronic condition, and ongoing success requires the development of healthy coping strategies. Our comprehensive relapse prevention plans teach you how to identify triggers and navigate life’s challenges while maintaining long-term sobriety.

Luxury Accommodations

Your surroundings can deeply impact your recovery experience. At Serenity Malibu, you’ll enjoy private, well-appointed accommodations and gourmet meals prepared by our executive chefs. Meals are customized to meet your nutritional needs and personal preferences, providing both comfort and nourishment during your stay.
