Outpatient Programs and Intensive Treatment Options

Both programs allow recovery community members to maintain their daily responsibilities while receiving consistent substance abuse treatment and building long-term recovery skills.

The facility's certified Opioid Treatment Program provides medication-assisted treatment as a cornerstone of their approach. Combined with cognitive behavioral therapy sessions, clients receive comprehensive support for opioid use disorder, alcohol use disorder, and other substance use conditions. Telehealth services extend treatment access for those unable to attend in-person sessions consistently.

The recovery center accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance, with self-pay options available for those without coverage. Online bill payment systems streamline administrative aspects, allowing clients to focus on their recovery community involvement and aftercare planning rather than payment logistics.
