Founder's Statement by Chris Prentiss

The book is available online, and it is changing the entire way that the world thinks of alcoholism and addiction. We receive emails, phone calls, and letters daily from people everywhere...

The Primary Reason to Choose Passages: One-to-One Treatment

Passages Addiction Cure Center is renowned as the most successful alcohol rehab and drug treatment center in the world for many reasons. The most important: our entire treatment philosophy is built upon One-to-One Addiction Treatment rather than group sessions.

Other alcohol and drug rehab centers rely heavily upon group treatment, which has been the standard for many years. However, many find it impossible to recall and confront traumatic memories while in a drug rehab program with nothing but group meetings on which to rely. That is why so many alcohol rehabs and drug treatment centers fail to accomplish their goal. Only within a private, intimate, safe environment will one feel comfortable enough and safe enough to talk about their innermost fears, the shameful events of their lives and their most private concerns. In the privacy of one-to-one sessions with expert therapists the true addiction rehabilitation and healing takes place.

We know from experience that the incredible breakthroughs and deep insights into the real problems that cause dependency on drugs and alcohol will most likely occur in the privacy and confidence of individual sessions with addiction treatment professionals. Only within an intimate and confidential environment will a person feel safe enough and comfortable enough to talk about and overcome his or her innermost fears and painful repressed traumas, which is necessary to achieve a total cure from drug or alcohol dependency. For this reason, Passages offers far more individual addiction treatment than any other alcohol and drug rehab center in the world. At most drug rehab centers, clients receive 4 individual sessions a month. At Passages, each client receives more than 55 individual sessions per month with the finest therapists to be found anywhere.

Reasons why Passages has the highest cure rate

From the moment you step into Passages, you will be treated with incredible care and attention that has set the "gold standard" for all other drug rehab centers. Our drug addiction treatment center boasts the highest staff-to-client ratio of any other—there are 3 staff members to a client at any given time. Throughout the healing process, we want you to be as comfortable and as cared for as possible. Our environment and our therapists promotes this high degree of healing and comfort that enables our clients to focus on healing their innermost fears and traumas; the underlying problems that created and are maintaining their dependency on drugs, alcohol and other addictive behaviors.

The Most One-on-One Treatment Anywhere

During each week of a client's stay at Passages, he or she will receive more than fifteen individual therapy sessions with 10 different treatment professionals, all experts in different components of addiction treatment. Such intensive treatment allows us to provide more healing in 30 days than some other drug rehabs might provide in an entire year. Our powerful Drug Treatment Program is the key to Passages' success as a world-class alcohol and drug rehab.

Every Client Receives Hand-Tailored, Adaptive Addiction Treatment Programs

The team of therapists available at Passages is comprised of some of the finest addiction treatment professionals in the world. In fact, one of the reasons why the clients who come to Passages are so successful is because of the extremely high level of care that each therapist provides. However, while having a large group of therapists is certainly powerful, it would mean nothing if the therapists did not work together as a collaborative team. During the first week of a client's stay at Passages, he or she will meet individually with each member of their own 10-person Passages Treatment Team. This will total more than fifteen individual therapy sessions each week. Thereafter, upon the conclusion of each week of treatment, the Treatment Team meets to discuss in detail each client's progress. Together, the Treatment Team modifies and hand tailors each client’s schedule for the following week, so each client receives a perfectly individualized treatment program for their own successful addiction recovery.

Very recently, the National Institute on Drug Abuse released a research-based guide called, The Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment.  The guide included 13 addiction treatment principles that should be incorporated into any effective effective drug treatment program

The Passages Drug Rehab Program incorporates and exemplifies the use of every Principle of Drug Addiction Treatment.

Be Treated with Respect and Dignity During Your Drug Rehab Program

Many drug rehab centers believe that punishing their clients will result in sobriety, so they make their clients perform menial chores and tasks during the treatment process. Passages does not agree with that philosophy; degrading activities will not cure someone of drug and alcohol dependency; it only further tarnishes an already damaged self-image. Instead, clients who come to Passages enjoy an environment of respect and unconditional support through continuous one-to-one therapy, helping clients toward a full, uncompromising addiction cure.
