Sober Coach Under Fire Following Presley Gerber’s Death

Dirk Eldredge, Healy’s former employer, asserts that his protégé is suffering deeply following the loss of Gerber, whom he had assisted for several years. Eldredge dismissed claims that Healy bears responsibility for the 27-year-old’s death, characterizing the accusations as unfair attempts to assign fault. According to Eldredge, Healy maintains communication with Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, who have expressed gratitude for his long-term efforts to help their son seek sobriety.

Questions regarding the oversight of the sober living facility and Healy’s own qualifications have complicated the narrative. While Healy’s profile at The Little Beach House identified him as a licensed addiction counselor, records in Colorado and California do not currently reflect such certification. The facility where Gerber died, Resolutions Living, is not licensed by the California Department of Health Care Services, raising further questions about the environment provided to the model. Authorities continue to treat the case as a suspected overdose, with law enforcement sources confirming that Gerber arrived at the Santa Monica home the night before his death. Until autopsy and toxicology reports are finalized, the exact sequence of events remains subject to ongoing investigation.
