Our Therapy Methods and Treatment Approach
Healing doesn’t only happen in sessions with a clinician. At The Meadows Malibu, treatment may look like neurofeedback in our Brain Center, nutritious meals and snacks prepared on-site by our amazing chef, holistic offerings like yoga and surf therapy, and therapy methods like eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). They all combine to make up a program that’s like no other.
Our COmmitment to Patient Care
Meadows Behavioral Healthcare’s executive team, led by CEO Sean Walsh, understands a program’s effectiveness lies in its staff’s interactions with each and every person who comes through its doors. “Many of our staff have experienced some of the issues that our patients are going through, and they understand and can identify with their concerns,” Walsh explains. “This adds to the atmosphere of acceptance and respect patients feel when they arrive and during their entire stay with us.”
