This outpatient rehab helps people with opioid addiction in particular to overcome their addiction by treating both the physical and mental or emotional aspects of addiction.

Depending on your case and what you need they can provide one of three medications. You’ll get methadone or buprenorphine or Suboxone.
Now for the mental and emotional side. While receiving your medication you’ll also get counseling to help you learn about your addiction and work through the issues that impact it. They do this through counseling including individual counseling and group counseling. As an added bonus you’ll benefit from the support of your peers in the program and develop a strong and supportive recovery community.
This program is available to adults ages 18 and older with opioid use disorder. Clients say that this clinic provides a welcoming and compassionate experience, especially front desk staff.
