The closer you look, the better we appear.
Why choose 1 Method Center? The answer is simple. We don’t believe one size fits all. Our entire program is built on a foundation of personal attention and individualized care. We see you as a whole person with unlimited potential. We make your time with us count because you matter. Look closer and see for yourself.
What Sets Us Apart
Many people view rehab as a revolving door of success and setbacks until treatment starts again. That doesn’t have to be your story. Our goal is to move you forward. But it is critical to get the right care to help break that cycle. When treatment is tailored to your individual needs, you can expect better results. Fortunately, that’s where 1 Method Center really shines.
Five Reasons People Choose 1MC

Program Size
Our residential programs serve 6 people at a time. We have one of the highest staff to client ratios in Los Angeles. We’re located in the quiet neighborhoods of Cheviot and Beverly Hills. The calmly appointed clinical setting of each home promotes a healthy lifestyle in a comfortable environment that fosters renewal and encourages a positive treatment experience. It also improves motivation to stay in the therapeutic process. Consider what happens when a program has 25 or more residents. Sound chaotic? With that many people, individual attention can be scarce or staggered at best. It’s important to ask rehabs questions. What’s your capacity? How do you individualize treatment? Most facilities are quite large, group-based and not designed for personalized care. At 1 Method Center, we work with you every step of the way. Learn more about the importance of Program Size.

Customization
Our success is rooted in the profound understanding that customized care is the most effective approach to treatment. Utilizing this crucial component, tailored care is focused on your needs so you can focus on your recovery. We help you build the tools for a healthy, purposeful life that you can lead and live well beyond treatment. First you pick a program, and then you choose the services that fit your goals and needs. It’s a shame that most facilities are too big to take this approach. Learn more about treatment Customization.

1-on-1 Focus
NIDA released the following statement in 2008: “No single treatment is appropriate for everyone.” In other words, group therapy isn’t the answer for everything. Yet, it’s still the standard in most rehab facilities. That is not the case here and our name reflects our clinical philosophy (1 Method). If addiction is your only problem, a group-based program is likely sufficient. But individual therapies and treatments are critical if emotional, psychological, or mental health problems are present. These issues tend to be deep-seated and difficult to heal with group therapy. In fact, some conditions require a targeted 1 on 1 focus, e.g.: Anxiety, Trauma, PTSD, Depression, Bipolar, and many others. Learn more about the importance of 1 on 1 Care.

Integrative Care
If you read nothing else, read this: Integrated care is critical for effective treatment. Most programs can’t tell you what it is because they don’t use an integrated model. For the record, it means having a multidisciplinary team that treats all your conditions at the same time. And that’s exactly what you get at 1 Method Center. Don’t underestimate the importance of this program feature. It’s absolutely essential for success. Learn more about Integrative Care.

Our Philosophy
“Individual problems need to be treated in individual ways.” Such a simple yet important idea. Many facilities promote individuation but lack the capacity to deliver on their promises. For us, individualized care is not an afterthought, or intake “hook.” The points we made above are how we deliver on our pledge. Our founder has been approaching mental and behavioral health treatment with this philosophy for over 20 years. Learn more about the importance of Our Philosophy.
A Different Approach to Treatment
Over the years, 1 Method Center has earned recognition in several areas. Most mental and behavioral health experts like our focus on individualized care. Clients often favor and thrive in our holistic approach – treating the mind, body, and soul. And loved ones respond positively to our detailed aftercare planning. Each of these shares one common element; they all encourage your success.
Here are a few other ways we’re different from most programs:
- Founded by an engaged clinician.
- We design personalized treatment plans.
- Upscale and affordable treatment setting.
- We offer 12 months of cost-inclusive family support.
- We treat addiction, dual diagnosis, and mental health.
- Our program is endorsed by leaders in their respective fields.
- We offer a unique health and fitness program that helps repair the brain and body.
We know you can recover for good. This point of view is demonstrated in every part of the treatment process. From our luxurious setting in Southern California, to our innovative approach, to our experienced staff and unique Health and Fitness Program, we’re confident you can have a life-changing experience at 1 Method Center.
Our Code of Ethics
1 Method is a privately, and more importantly, clinically owned and operated treatment center for substance use disorders, dual diagnosis, and mental health issues. Our founder, Cassidy Cousens, has worked in the field for the past 20 years. If you don’t already know who he is, here’s a video where you can learn more about him and his philosophy on treatment.
1MC Code of Operation and Ethics:
- 1 Method Center does not condone or engage in any form of misleading or deceptive practices in its online marketing, public relations, advertising, or collateral promotional materials. We do not participate as advertisers on “funnel” websites, bogus treatment directory sites, or so-called “rehab reviews” which misrepresent their objectivity to users or readers. Our success speaks for itself.
- 1 Method Center does not make or receive any financial payment or remuneration for client referrals. Furthermore, 1 Method Center does not support or refer clients to any other programs or professionals that engage in these practices.
- We encourage clients, families and referents to visit us in person in order to see our facilities up close and to experience the vitality and spirit of our program for themselves. Simply put: The closer you look, the better we look.
- We do not admit clients who are not clinically appropriate for our milieu. We recognize the limitations of our model of care and we consistently refer clients and families who are not appropriate to other programs that have the same ethical standards we do.
- We do not believe in a la carte pricing, add-ons or nickel-and-diming our guarantors. Fees for services are all-inclusive and always include greater, not lesser value and services than advertised.
- 1 Method Center believes treatment is best experienced in a culture of abundance. We offer good healthy food, clean and well-maintained vehicles and immaculate facilities. We treat our clients and their families with dignity and respect at all times.
- At 1 Method Center, marketing is fundamentally about providing exposure of our programs and services to families, professionals, and prospective clients. We strive to accurately convey the day-to-day activities of our treatment center. Our brand is not contrived and does not require spit and polish to make it look like something it’s not. We practice what we preach by revealing our clinical philosophy in everything we do.
- When calling 1 Method Center, prospective clients, families, and referents will always be greeted by a licensed counselor who is there to be of support and assistance in a time of need. We do not have a boiler room operation and we do not attempt to convert callers into paying “customers” when they are merely calling us for help, nor do we operate call centers that are manned by aggressive sales people with no other interest than to make sales. Furthermore, when you do call us, we do not use your information for unwarranted future solicitation.
