AGOURA HILLS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / March 2, 2020 / Perhaps predictably, since it became an official "Dr. Phil"-preferred facility, the Awakenings Treatment Center has greatly broadened its outreach to those in need of its vital services.
"Since we've been on the ‘Dr. Phil' show, the calls and admissions from all over the country have picked up significantly," said Dr. Shari Corbitt, founder and CEO of Awakenings Treatment Center, an intensive outpatient care facility that treats people with addictions, eating disorders, chronic pain and other interrelated conditions.
"With Dr. Phil recommending us on his show, it's bringing greater awareness in general to the neuroscientific treatment that's available for addiction, chronic pain, autism, PTSD and other issues," Corbitt said. "His endorsement of Awakenings Treatment Center is such an incredible boost, to those people struggling out there in their deep need and to us, who are here to help them."
Through the "Dr. Phil" affiliation, Corbitt said, "we've been able to help people in the middle of Idaho and in Maryland and in south Florida, just to name a few, who more than likely would not have found us otherwise."
Goals in Alignment
The paths of Awakenings Treatment Center and Dr. Phillip McGraw, the noted TV personality and author, crossed thanks to Dr. Deena Manion. A longtime on-air contributor to McGraw's popular "Dr. Phil" TV talk show, Manion joined the staff of Awakenings Treatment Center last year as its clinical coordinator and began mentioning the Agoura Hills facility and its landmark work on the air with Dr. Phil. In addition, the "Dr. Phil" website lists Awakenings among its preferred facilities, on its treatment resources page.
Beyond the notoriety associated with "Dr. Phil," McGraw's knowledge and compassion make Corbitt most appreciative of his support. "Dr. Phil ensures that the right person gets to the right facility, so he's highly strategic in his referral choices," she said.
Corbitt also credits Manion for her efforts: "Dr. Deena's critical expertise combined with her presence here and on the show is fundamentally what allows us to partner with Dr. Phil, so we're all working together toward the same goal," Corbitt said. "For all these things, we are so grateful."
