About Gila River Healthcare – Casa Blanca
Gila River Healthcare, in Sacaton, Arizona, offers mental health and addiction recovery services for youth and adults, including specialized programs for children, adolescents, young adults, and persons with co-occurring disorders. They provide 12-Step-focused, culturally responsive services, including medication-assisted treatment (MAT), an intensive outpatient program (IOP), general outpatient program (OP), and aftercare programs.
Clients in alcohol and/or opioid recovery may enroll in their evidence-based medication-assisted treatment (MAT) program for longer-term pharmacotherapy, including buprenorphine induction and maintenance, to reduce cravings and decrease relapse risk.
Their intensive outpatient program (IOP) is designed for clients who require high-level supervision and support, including those in early recovery, stepping down from inpatient care, or at an elevated risk of relapse. Clients receive medical and mental health assessments and personalized care plans. The program requires up to 20 hours of therapy per week for a minimum of 80 days and includes robust individual, group, and family counseling and recovery-focused life-skills training. Referrals for acute and subacute inpatient care are available as needed.
Their general outpatient program is designed for clients who are medically stable. Treatment includes continuing addiction counseling and recovery education. Clients participate in three therapeutic sessions weekly based on the Matrix model of care.
Their aftercare programs enable a complete continuum of care aligned with clients’ evolving needs and include one therapeutic session per week.
