I now have the ability to be accepting of my past, aware of my present, and affirmative and positive about my future. I can change any deeply frozen mindset I’ve driven myself into while enduring and…

Most experienced mountain climbers hire a guide when attempting a new mountain. The guide helps them navigate the terrain and can point out unseen wonders along the way. Those who follow their guides usually succeed. Those that do not often fail. So it was with my recovery. Recovery is part of life, and life is a journey. It is a…

It’s been one year, today, since I came into Milestone’s loving, caring arms. I want to thank you…, and everyone who had a part in my healing, for all that you did for me. I am still strong and healthy, one year later, and look forward to many, many more years of happiness to come.
All that I learned -
Thank you… for saving my life! I am so grateful for everything you did for me there. You have an amazing program and an amazing staff! You all know I was dying and it would not have been long before I did die. I had no hope of ever getting well until I came there. I now have many wonderful

After over a decade of great substance abuse and strong alcoholic tendencies, I realized that my way of life was very destructive and harming to not only myself, but those I love. Milestones was able to offer a program that was tailored to not just my addictions, but also to my lifestyle as a business owner. The staff, facilities and…

I owe my life, and my happiness, to the growth opportunity I received at Milestones. I learned so very much about myself through what I was taught and the people who taught me. I am “me” again and I couldn’t have gotten back, from the long, painful road I had been on, without the help of the wonderful group, and…

In addition to helping our daughter understand and comprehend her substance abuse problem, you have helped us as a family understand our daughter’s issues so that we are better able to assist her and build a bridge that she can cross on her way to recovery. Our family therapy sessions were wonderful and while painful at times, in the end…

Milestones offered me the opportunity and environment in which I was able to break the cycle that is addiction. In this I was able to take a much needed step back and reconnect with someone I had lost touch with …myself.

After our deeply depressed daughter’s suicide attempt, we were devastated, frightened and felt absolutely helpless. The Milestones team provided the firm, yet gentle and compassionate care to our daughter that became the foundation for her recovery. In addition, they took great care to minister to us as a family and were keenly aware of the pain we were feeling. As…

Not to be over dramatic or exaggerate, Milestones Ranch Malibu saved our daughter’s life. Her medical doctors told her that if she didn’t stop drinking she’d be dead in a year. After her first 28 days, she thought she could do it on her own and moved to NY. After less than a week she was drinking again. She called…

It’s hard for me to put into words the gratitude I have. I was a broken woman strung out on crack cocaine and an alcoholic. I would stay awake for a week at a time, using around the clock. I would pick my children up from school loaded, endangering us all. Hiding and lying about my problem from my husband…

Milestones provided me with a safe, nurturing environment filled with all different sorts of therapeutic modalities. The incredible caring, love and support of all the staff enabled me to use these tools to make positive, lasting changes in my life. Thank you… Milestones!

When I decided to come to Milestones my goals for my life were very low. But the experience I had just blew my mind. I had no idea that my life could be a good one and that there is so much more out there that I never thought about. Milestones opened me up and guided me towards a new…

I think of my time at Milestones Ranch Malibu daily and remember the people, the lessons and the love that has helped shape me today. I am truly grateful for the time and energy and love the staff …showed me. With some willingness to get better and an open mind Milestones changed my life.

Overall I strongly recommend Milestones as the stepping stone to a new you! The staff, the programs, the groups…and mainly from my experience the way that you are tested on a 24hr basis. It is not easy going to any type of rehabilitation center…but if you have the courage & strength, Milestones is the only place where you can work…

Before Eric came to Milestones, I was starting to feel hopeless that we would ever find help for Eric, and I was feeling terribly alone in my search for help. Now, I see dramatic changes in Eric, have tremendous hope and am confident that there is a support system there for Eric (and for my wife and me) that will…

Milestones focuses as much on helping clients recognize and confront the roots and reasons behind an addiction as it does with the addiction itself. When I left Milestones after 30 days, I left behind 30 years of guilt and shame as well and for that, I will truly be forever grateful.

Milestones gave me my life back and a new purpose for living. The staff is outstanding! Thank you… for all you have done.

I can’t believe it has been a year since I checked in to Milestones. I don’t want to imagine how I would have handled this latest test over the summer without any of the tools I so thankfully received from Milestones. I don’t think I can ever say it enough …thank you… Milestones. I’m leading a much better and

The attentive, qualified and supportive psych techs and therapists made me feel safe and comfortable and helped me gain insight into my alcoholism and anxiety, which contributed to my recovery. Plus the food is really good!

Milestones educated me. I learned why I was doing drugs and so destructively. I dealt with some issues both issues intrinsic to myself and issues due to situations or people that I could not control. I identified other issues, that have not yet been resolved, but I do understand a cause and effect relationship and I understand how these issues…

Milestones has been amazing. I came here to address personal issues along with substance abuse and found the staff, facilities and setting to be perfect. Through group and personal therapies, I was able to address and process “key triggers” that lead to my use of alcohol. I would recommend Milestones to any of my friends or family if they were…

I came into Milestones with high expectations, and to be frank Milestones blew them out of the water. Milestones went above and beyond my expectations. I never imagined in my wildest dreams that I would or could have learned as much about myself in the short amount of time I spent at Milestones.
Milestones is a great place to learn… -
The time I spent at Milestones was an eye opening experience. I gained true friends and skills to use against my addiction. Milestones was an awakening for my conciousness that lifted me from my funk and encouraged me to grow in a way I never thought I would.

Before Milestones, I believed that I never had the chance or the ability to be happy. During my time on the ranch my view of life changed. It did not change overnight, but it changed little by little everyday. Before I had only death in my eyes, now I see possibility. Milestones taught me that in my struggles I could…

Milestones is a great opportunity to put past addictions in perspective and establish ways to cope without the devils of substances.

My time spent at Milestones has been a huge eye opener to see who I really am. I learned about myself and how to manage what life throws at us without turning to drugs and alcohol. The 90 days I have spent here truly changed my life around and I’m confident I will continue to stay sober when I leave.…

In addition to providing me with the tools I need to treat my addiction, Milestones gave me a much needed break from my intense life in politics. I treated my 30 days here like a sabbatical where I lost weight, focused on wellness and emerged centered and ready to move forward in a highly productive way with the rest of…

There is something so special and unique here at Milestones. They surrounded me with unconditional love and acceptance and taught me to do the same with myself. I surrendered the effort and what I received in return was my life. I hold Milestones directly responsible for that and I am forever grateful.

My journey at Milestones was one of success and personal growth which I did not have before my experience here. I walked in a lost and broken individual and came out a spiritual and forgiving person, which I could not have done myself. Thank you… so much Milestones Ranch Malibu for my life back and to be loved by myself
