Why Pacifica?

Established in 1977 Rehab centre Pacifica, staff, volunteers, and community members co-create the conditions required to promote self-discovery, self-empowerment, and self-actualization for community members to make profound changes and own their path in an environment that feels like home.

Rehab Centre in Vancouver

Nestled in a quiet community neighbourhood, our welcoming California-style facility and serene inner courtyard help you and your loved ones feel at ease while beginning this important leg of the journey.

Our unique approach to treatment, and a blend of congregate spaces and individual rooms, makes this a place where one can find community — a safe place to connect with social events, familiar faces, and the opportunity for healing. Pacifica plays a supportive and encouraging role in treatment, fostering a collaborative environment where both community members and our interdisciplinary team are active participants in the Pacifica ecosystem.

This journey requires bravery and resolve – we are here to guide you along the way.

Our Process

We’ve co-created a two-year + experience that includes Pre-Engagement, Orientation, Primary Treatment, Resiliency & Trauma, Integrative Wellness, Continuing Care programming, and Alumni Services. Whether privately or publicly funded, once a community member has their first touchpoint with Pacifica, we’re here to provide support. Thinking of treatment but not quite ready yet? You are still welcome — through pre-engagement you can come in for a meal and to get your questions answered so you know what to expect from your experience at the Pacifica Treatment Centre.

  • The journey starts with an introduction to recovery — pre-engagement. We want to help you get in the door and maneuver through the building, creating a smooth transition from our waitlist (our waitlist can be 8-12 weeks) to treatment. Connect with a program coordinator, meet our reception team, tour the facility — before starting treatment.
  • When you walk down the stairs for the first day of treatment and see our welcoming team at the front door, you are already a community member. Treatment involves individual assignments, group work, counselling sessions, recreational time, and much more.
  • Treatment doesn’t stop after transitioning out of the primary treatment program. The community we build together at Pacifica is our continuing care, from virtual group programming and one-to-one counselling to alumni services. Creating a community of care enhances everybody’s sense of belonging, quality of life and well-being.

Do you treat co-occurring dependencies?
