About us
The Pointe Malibu is an exclusive beachside recovery facility in Malibu, California, offering comprehensive substance abuse and mental health treatment services for adults. The center provides a range of programs, including highly personalized detox, inpatient treatment, partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient programs (IOP), and medication-assisted treatment (MAT). Special programs are also available for LGBTQ+ individuals and professional clients, ensuring tailored care for diverse needs.
Medical detox at The Pointe Malibu serves as the crucial first step in the recovery process. Clients undergo stabilization under the careful supervision of medical professionals, allowing them to begin treatment free of substances. During detox, staff are dedicated to managing withdrawal symptoms safely and effectively, setting the stage for successful inpatient care.
Inpatient treatment is provided in a serene beach house environment, designed to offer a high level of privacy and comfort. The facility’s luxury amenities enhance the recovery experience, while individualized treatment plans focus on holistic care. Therapy options include individual and group therapy, family therapy, neurofeedback, nutritional support, and pain management. Advanced therapeutic modalities such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), trauma therapy, and gender-specific care are also integrated into the treatment process.
For those seeking intensive treatment without residential care, the partial hospitalization program (PHP) offers a structured environment where clients engage in up to seven hours of therapy each day before returning home in the evening. The intensive outpatient program (IOP) provides further flexibility, with sessions held three to five days per week, allowing clients to maintain their daily responsibilities while receiving ongoing support.
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is available for clients who require additional support managing cravings and other symptoms associated with recovery. All MAT protocols are carefully monitored by the center’s medical staff to ensure safety and effectiveness.
The Pointe Malibu works with various private insurance providers, including Magellan, Aetna, TRICARE, ComPsych, and Humana, to cover some or all treatment costs. Clients are encouraged to verify their insurance coverage, as benefits may vary depending on whether services are in-network or out-of-network.
The facility holds a state license in California, ensuring that all programs meet rigorous standards for quality and care.

We understand that choosing an addiction treatment center can be overwhelming, especially with so many options, promises, and marketing messages. Thatโs why weโve developed a clear, standardized rating system designed to cut through the noise and highlight what truly matters: safety, quality of care, and transparency. Our goal is to give individuals and families the information they need to make confident, informed decisions during a critical time.
In this guide, we explain exactly how we rate treatment centersโfrom accreditation and staff credentials to therapy options, facility environment, and family involvement. Youโll see how we assign scores, award badges, and update listings to ensure accuracy and fairness. Most importantly, our system focuses on elevating centers that prioritize ethical, evidence-based care, not just those with the best marketing. This way, you can trust that the ratings you see reflect meaningful standards that help you find the right fit for lasting recovery.
