Our Unique Approach to Successful Treatment

At Malibu Horizon, we do not believe in superficial advice or magical cures. Our philosophy revolves around providing a therapeutic environment where real change happens: behavioral change and personality change. The important curative factor is the fragile alliance, and the quality of the relationship between the primary therapist and the client. Human beings do not get processed through our system. Our clients are invited to participate in a special type of community.

We challenge the deterministic notion that humans are a product of their early conditioning and their past. Unfortunately, there is a large connection between trauma and addiction. When necessary, this past history is explored in an environment where safety comes first.

Founder's Philosophy

Our founder, Dr. Mohammad, explains in the treatment of addiction, a licensed medical doctor with expertise in addiction (an Addiction Medicine Specialist) should be the one in charge of the overall treatment process.

It is the specialist who can coordinate, assess the progress, and make ongoing treatment decisions. Every patient needs to be medically and psychiatrically evaluated and a psycho-social and interpersonal assessment needs to be done.
