AN INVITATION FROM PAX AND CHRIS PRENTISS
the Co-Founders and Co-Directors of
Passages Addiction Cure Center.

Passages is not a 12-step program and we do not share the belief that alcoholism and addiction are diseases.  At the core of every addiction are underlying problems that are the direct cause of your dependency on drugs and alcohol.  Alcoholism and addiction are just symptoms of the deep, underlying problems in your life.  At Passages, we help you discover and heal those underlying problems, putting an end to your addiction.  There are only four causes of alcoholism and addiction.

    1. Chemical imbalance.
    2. Events of the past you have not been able to reconcile.
    3. Current conditions you can’t cope with.
    4. Things you believe that aren’t true.


An example of #4 is the belief that alcoholism and addiction are diseases and that they are incurable. Once you buy into that belief, you will fail to seek the real causes that are always there.  Until your personal underlying causes are discovered and healed, you will most likely continue using drugs and alcohol, struggling every day, but with no end in sight. Once your underlying problems are solved, your addiction will cease to exist; no more suffering, no more relapse, no more days and nights of anguish. You are free.

When you check into Passages, a ten-person team of expert therapists is assigned just to you or your loved one. These therapists work with you one-on-one, providing you with a total of 55 hours of private therapy in one month. Your therapists work as a team, sharing information on a daily basis, and then making changes to your program, so that your program progresses as you progress. Think of it; ten highly skilled therapists who have been working as a team for years, who will put forth their full effort just for you! That level of care is not available anywhere else in the world. There is only one Passages, and it is the right place, the only place, for you or someone you care about. 

Passages pioneered the word “cure” as it applies to curing dependency on drugs and alcohol, and we are the pioneers of the one-on-one treatment program. In the eight years since we opened our doors, we set the standard; we raised the bar. There are many others who now copy us, but poorly, and why be satisfied with imitators?  Remember we believe in a cure, and we believe in you!

THE PRIMARY REASON TO CHOOSE PASSAGES:
ONE-ON-ONE TREATMENT
Our unmatched and powerful program can provide complete recovery from any addiction.

We do this by first and foremost healing the underlying problems that our causing your addiction. We know that the only way to truly eliminate your dependency on alcohol and drugs is to discover the problems that have caused and are maintaining your dependency, and then to heal them completely. We do this by providing you with ten of the world's finest therapists, hand picked from our pool of therapists, who will work with you in approximately fifty hour-long, private, individual, one-on-one therapy sessions, far more than is provided in any other treatment center. That's more than 12 one-on-one sessions each week, and our therapists are at the forefront of modern addiction treatment, all of whom believe in a cure and whose only goal is to completely cure you of the problems underlying your dependency.

Every week, we (Chris and Pax) meet with all of your therapists for an intensive, group session called Treatment Team Planning, in which your progress is discussed, and a new program is designed for you for the coming week based on what you need to walk out of Passages completely cured of your dependency and ready to return home without the specter of relapse hanging over your head. As a result, your program progresses as you progress, no two weeks are alike. Your program is truly an individualized program. Through this incredible cutting edge treatment program, the Passages' team helps you or your loved one cure themselves so you can remain completely free of dependency on drugs and alcohol for the rest of your lives.

The Passages level of care is not available at any other treatment center in the world. It is what sets us apart from all other treatment centers along with our unmatched rate of success and the fact that we do not believe in the disease concept of alcoholism and addiction. We have searched throughout the United States and many different countries and have not found any program that even comes close to offering the level of care that we offer. Nearly every other center in the world still offers
the same cookie-cutter, group meeting approach. Their idea one-on-one treatment usually consists of one individual session a week while continually preaching the disease concept, where you are labeled an incurable alcoholic or addict, condemned to your fight to stay sober, one day at a time, for the rest of your life. And to compound that problem, every week's program is the same as the week before, over and over again; their programs never change. Theirs is the true cookie-cutter approach, the one-size-fits-all programs, and, along with their belief in the disease concept of alcoholism and addiction, is what is primarily responsible for their incredibly high rate of relapse. How would you like to be treated by someone who believed you could not be cured?

There is no shame in doing what you've done, in becoming what you've become. You were trying desperately to cope with a life that went wrong. We know that. We want the opportunity to restore you. Our most rewarding experience at Passages is to see, every day, the miracle of people being freed of their dependencies. What a joy! It's absolutely our favorite thing. You or someone you love can be one of those people.

We invite you to come to Passages and experience what it's like to be in the company of people who truly understand addiction, who know how to heal it, who know how to free you from your dependency on addictive pills, alcohol, street drugs and addictive behavior. We are curing people just like you every day. It makes no difference how long you've been drinking or using drugs. It makes no difference how totally involved you are with your drug of choice, be it alcohol, addictive prescription medications or
street drugs. It makes no difference how far down the ladder of addiction you have traveled, how far from grace you have fallen. We will show you how to end relapse, how to end suffering and how to end your cravings. We will show you how to restore your life. We will show you how to be truly free. This is our invitation to you:

We invite you to come to Passages and give yourself the gift of Passages. We offer you safe passage from the world of addiction to the world of freedom from addiction. We invite you to bring us yourself or your loved one, and we will give you back the original person, the one who's been lost for so long.
