History

Established in 1990.

or over 25 years we have offered a unique refuge for families and their loved ones who have been impacted by addiction and mental health issues. There is a reason the name Promises evokes a sense of confidence and empowerment: this is the name that started the Malibu Model™ of treatment. This is the name that has stood the test of time. Every day, we deliver clinically sophisticated treatment in a place you would be proud to call home.

Promises created the original Malibu Model™ of treatment because we understood the one-​size-​fits-​all approach of addiction treatment simply did not work. Our clients expected something more. We saw unique individuals, each with their own story, struggling not only with addiction but also underlying issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, chronic pain, and compulsive behaviors that frustrated past attempts to free themselves from addiction.
