Opioid Detox Services

Treatment may incorporate various traditional methods, relapse prevention strategies, and added support like case management, health education, and employment counseling for whole-person stability.

Case managers may provide connections to outside resources for ongoing recovery assistance.

Through sessions, guests can address the potential root causes of substance use and develop healthier coping skills, learn to recognize substance use triggers and how to regulate emotional reactions. They also offer specialized support for pregnant and postpartum women who need recovery from opioid dependence.
