Depression Is A Treatable Illness
Depression is a serious medical illness experienced by millions worldwide, in every age group and from all walks of life. It causes the sufferer to feel exhausted, worthless, helpless, and hopeless. Surprisingly, most people do not seek depression treatment, although the great majority -- even those with extreme depression and bipolar disorder -- can be helped.
Depression interferes with normal everyday functioning and can destroy family life as well as the life of the ill person. Without comprehensive depression treatment, many people feel like simply giving up. If the person is also self-medicating with drugs or alcohol, depression may lead to thoughts of suicide. If you feel that you or a loved one suffers from undiagnosed depression, we encourage you to seek professional depression treatment. You may save your own or someone else's life.
Renaissance Malibu offers the most advanced, innovative depression treatment therapies available anywhere in the world in an unmatched setting of natural beauty and serenity. As the premier holistic, residential healing center on the West Coast, we are committed to providing every client with the tools and self-knowledge for overcoming depression so that they may enjoy a happy, fulfilling and productive lifetime.
Renaissance Malibu - A World Class Depression Treatment Center
Even before a client arrives at Renaissance Malibu's depression treatment facility, the clinical staff works with the client's family and friends to develop an understanding of significant concerns and issues. Upon arrival, each person suffering depression receives a series of personal evaluations to assess the client's status in each of the program's four main healing components; Mind, Body, Spirit, and Relationships. After coordination with all clinical and medical team members, the client moves to a luxurious suite, ready to focus on their individually tailored treatment plan for overcoming depression.
Set in the breathtaking hills of Malibu, California, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Renaissance Malibu's depression treatment program is multi-disciplinary, personalized, and draws an unprecedented range of both traditional and innovative treatment options. Our clinical team of depression treatment experts blends these elements together in a personalized program, administered in an environment crafted to produce the best solutions for long-term success. We blend traditional western depression treatment approaches like phsycho and group therapies, psychopharmacology, and twelve-step meetings for alcohol depression or dependence, with techniques proven successful in other cultures like relaxation training, hypnosis, bio feedback, acupuncture and equine therapy.

Evaluating Depression Treatment Programs
Any facility you contact that boasts first-rate depression treatment programs should be entirely able - and willing -- to supply answers to any and all of your questions. Remember, depression - especially alcohol depression -- is a life-threatening illness, so do not be timid in asking, and be sure that you are comfortable with the answers.
First, determine the accreditation of the depression treatment facility you are considering. Remarkably, there are many centers that have no accreditation, often because their treatment methods are questionable. Some of the more dubious centers even state that there is a "simple answer" to depression treatment - drugs -- and that a holistic approach that deals with emotional, relationship and family issues is not necessary. Be aware that this approach is short-sited, counter-productive, and entirely inaccurate.
If you or a loved one is suffering and seeking help overcoming depression, you should inquire:
. Is the clinical staff fully licensed - not merely certified?
. Do they specialize in depression and alcohol depression treatment?
. Can they point to a history of success in depression treatment?
. Do they have relapse prevention and continuing care programs?
. Does the program offer a continuum of care, where you can transition to lesser or greater levels of care if you need them?
. Does the program offer a wide range of ancillary professionals and activities to further accommodate your specialized needs?
. Is the program structure flexible enough to accommodate personal needs?
. Does the depression treatment program offer a balance of group and individual activities?
. Does the program offer specialized treatment tracks for your specific needs?
. Does the program take place in an institutional setting or offer a beautiful, serene environment conducive to healing?
