Evergreen Treatment Services Unit 2

Evergreen Treatment Services Unit 2 provides outpatient-level addiction treatment focused on opioid use disorder and substance use disorder for adults in King County and across the Puget Sound region. The clinic's approach centers on medications for opioid use disorder — methadone and buprenorphine — delivered within a structured outpatient program that emphasizes consistent, ongoing care rather than episodic intervention.

The clinic operates Monday through Friday from 6:30 AM to 12:45 PM at its Seattle location on S Bennett St, making regular access to treatment a practical reality for working adults and others managing daily responsibilities. For those who cannot reach the physical clinic, mobile clinics extend the same outpatient services into the broader community, reflecting a commitment to meeting people in recovery wherever they are in their journey.

Recovery from opioid use disorder rarely stops at the clinic door, and Evergreen Treatment Services Unit 2 builds that reality into its care model. Case management services help coordinate the practical and clinical needs that shape long-term outcomes, from treatment engagement to navigating community resources. The team works alongside people in recovery to address the full picture of what stable, sustained sobriety requires.

Aftercare at this recovery center includes referrals to mental health and primary health care providers, as well as housing support — two of the most significant factors in preventing relapse and maintaining quality of life beyond active treatment. Street-based outreach extends the organization's reach further, connecting individuals who may be far from formal treatment settings with the substance abuse treatment options available through Evergreen's network across Western Washington.

At the core of Evergreen Treatment Services Unit 2's outpatient program are two FDA-recognized medications for opioid use disorder: methadone and buprenorphine. Both are delivered within the clinic's outpatient treatment framework, supervised by a medical team led by Medical Director Dr. Paul Grekin MD. These medications support sustained recovery by reducing cravings and stabilizing the physical dimensions of opioid use disorder, allowing people to focus on rebuilding their lives.

Mobile clinics expand medication access beyond the fixed clinic site, a critical feature for adults in King County and the wider Puget Sound area who face transportation, housing, or scheduling barriers. This outreach-forward delivery model distinguishes Evergreen Treatment Services Unit 2 from outpatient programs that operate exclusively within a single facility, and reflects an organizational philosophy shaped by over five decades of community-based substance abuse treatment in Washington State.

Evergreen Treatment Services Unit 2 is guided by a leadership team that brings clinical, policy, and operational depth to its mission. CEO Stephen Woolworth PhD and Medical Director Dr. Paul Grekin MD lead the organization's clinical direction, while Chloe Gale MSW serves as VP of Policy and Strategy — a role that reflects the clinic's active engagement in shaping the broader substance abuse treatment landscape in Washington. Ivana Lichtscheidl oversees Quality Improvement and Risk Management, supporting the consistency of care across the organization.

That organizational structure matters for people in recovery and their families who are evaluating a long-term recovery partner. The presence of dedicated policy, quality, and IT leadership — alongside frontline clinical staff — signals an institution built for durability and accountability, not just short-term service delivery.
