Presley Gerber’s Alleged Overdose Death Takes Troubling New Turn
California officials found no license record for the Santa Monica facility as investigators review whether it provided treatment services.
- On September 20, Presley Gerber, 27, died at Resolutions Living, a Santa Monica sober home not required to hold California's state treatment license. Officials confirmed the facility provides only housing, not clinical services.
- The California Department of Health Care Services does not license sober living homes providing only housing rather than clinical treatment. Families often assume these residences carry the same oversight as licensed rehab centers.
- Resolutions Therapeutic Services founder Reza Nabavi had his psychologist license temporarily revoked in 2006 for reasons unclear. He was placed on five years of probation before launching the residence, which advertises 24/7 staff assistance.
- Santa Monica police are investigating the death with no foul play suspected, while the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner has deferred a ruling on the cause pending further testing. Friends questioned why Gerber was not referred to a facility authorized for detox.
- Unlike California, Arizona requires state licensure for sober homes to ensure resident safety. Experts recommend families verify licensing, overdose training, and naloxone availability before choosing a residence for recovery.
