The Joint Commission

Clinical, One-on-One Approach

This program is based on medical and psychological science. One-on-one therapy is a cornerstone, not an add-on, and is used to explore underlying causes and build trust early on. Board-certified addiction doctors oversee each client’s care. Treatment plans are adjusted as clients progress, and dual diagnosis care is available when mental health conditions are present alongside addiction. Treating addiction as a medical issue—not a moral one—can help people recover with clarity, compassion, and the right tools.

Detox That’s Safe, Private, and Supervised

Detox is closely supervised by physicians and tailored to each individual’s needs. Doctors are available 24/7 to adjust medications, including buprenorphine for opioid withdrawal. For clients not ready or able to commit to long-term treatment, there’s an option for “detox-only,” with no pressure to stay beyond that stage. The emphasis is on comfort, safety, and medical oversight, not judgment or unnecessary hardship.

Healing Beyond Therapy

The program helps clients rebuild a healthy lifestyle without substances, not just inside a therapy room, but out in the world too. Supervised beach outings, hikes, meditation, and fitness are part of the weekly routine. These aren’t just distractions – they’re strategies for managing urges, boredom, and emotional discomfort. Clients are encouraged to replace old habits with activities that bring purpose and structure to life in recovery.

Patient Perspectives

Many former clients credit Inspire Malibu with turning their lives around. Reviews often mention the attentiveness of staff and the effectiveness of therapy, with some reporting long-term sobriety. However, not all feedback is positive. Some clients noted issues around insurance transparency and admission logistics, including frustrations with deposit refunds and post-treatment support. These are important considerations for prospective clients and families.
