Established in 2009, Passages Ventura was founded by Chris and Pax Prentiss, a father and son team with personal experience in addiction recovery. After Chris developed a holistic program that helped his son overcome addiction, they opened their facility to extend the same healing opportunity to others. The center offers comprehensive care options ranging from drug and alcohol detox and residential treatment to outpatient services and sober living homes. Their residential program places significant emphasis on holistic therapies including massage, hypnotherapy, personal training, psychotherapy, and spiritual counseling. Treatment is complemented by various group activities focused on reintegration, processing, life planning, and energy healing. The Ventura facility provides a serene environment with attractive outdoor spaces, gardens, and fitness amenities. Located just two blocks from the beach, Passages' sober living homes continue their approach of comprehensive support in a thoughtfully designed setting. At the core of Passages Ventura's philosophy is the belief that clients are not defined by their addiction but are good people who have developed substance dependence due to life circumstances. The center is committed to breaking addiction stigma while guiding clients toward lasting recovery and a more fulfilling life.
