One on One Treatment at Passages Malibu
A month at Passages includes 60 to 70 hours of treatment alone with a therapist, and the therapists and doctors who work with you that way are named on the center’s staff list.
Sessions draw on cognitive behavioral therapy, DBT and EMDR, which is used for trauma, in one on one sessions.
The program is not a 12-step designed program.
Three sober living homes across Southern California take people leaving rehab.
Payment is by cash, check, wire transfer or card, including American Express, Discover, Mastercard and Visa.

Residential care at this campus is for drug and alcohol use, with treatment running while a person stays on site. |
Aftercare programs provide ongoing support after you complete a rehab program. They may include several components to help you maintain sobriety including therapy, community support groups and relapse prevention strategies. This gives you a network of resources as you reintegrate into your daily life. |
An intervention is a structured and professionally guided conversation with an individual who is struggling with addiction. During the conversation, family and friends will encourage you to seek treatment. This is often a pivotal step for those resistant to getting help. |
Outpatient rehab means sleeping at home and coming in for sessions, so the day stays yours except for the hours on site. |
Sober living homes provide a supportive and substance free environment for you to live in as you overcome your addiction. Residents must follow house rules and support each other’s recovery journeys. Sober living fosters accountability and stability during this critical phase of recovery. |
