Straight about what we treat
These pages exist so the right person can find us. Each one is written about the condition and the person, never as a test of whether you belong here.
Alcohol. Opioids. And the conditions that travel with them.
Plain descriptions of what each condition involves medically. Admissions answers the rest directly.
01 / 08
Alcohol is woven so far into normal life that a problem can hide for years, especially in people who are still holding everything together. Treatment starts with safe, medically supervised detox when it is needed, because alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous, then moves into therapy that gets at why drinking became the answer.
02 / 08
Opioid dependence often begins with a legitimate prescription and turns into something no one chose. Coming off opioids safely usually needs medical support, and lasting recovery needs more than detox. We combine medical care with therapy that treats the whole person.
03 / 08
Addiction and mental health rarely travel alone. Anxiety, depression, trauma and substance use feed each other, and treating only one leaves the other to pull a person back. Dual-diagnosis care treats both at the same time, with a coordinated medical and clinical team.
A private conversation is
the first step.
Ask privately what the first days of detox involve, or check what your insurance covers before deciding anything.
04 / 08
Benzodiazepine dependence usually starts with a prescription that worked. The body adapts faster than most people are warned about, and coming off these drugs without medical supervision can be genuinely dangerous. We will be straight with you about that.
05 / 08
Cocaine use often holds together for a long time before it does not. Work continues, the bills get paid, and nobody outside the house notices. What changes is how much of the week gets arranged around it.
06 / 08
Nobody plans to become dependent on a medication a doctor prescribed. Painkillers after surgery, something for anxiety, something to focus. The line gets crossed slowly, which is most of why it goes unnoticed.
07 / 08
Methamphetamine is harder to hide than most substances, and families usually arrive here having already seen a great deal. If you have been managing days without sleep and a person who does not sound like themselves, you are not overreacting.
08 / 08
This is the substance families argue about most. One person is certain it is harmless, another is certain it is not. The useful question is narrower: has stopping been tried, and did it work?
