Opioid Addiction Specialization at New Season

This center specializes in treating opioid addiction including legal and illegal opioids, such as codeine, morphine, hydrocodone, oxycodone, hydromorphone, propoxyphene, heroin, and fentanyl.

Medication assisted treatments are used in conjunction with counseling. They use medications like methadone, buprenorphine, or Suboxone to control withdrawal symptoms and cravings. This treatment center is exclusively outpatient but clients can be referred to an inpatient facility if needed.

Substance abuse counseling is offered as an individual, group, or family. Counseling helps a client find the underlying reasons for using substances and what triggers the client to use, while also developing a plan to promote growth in the client’s life.

Intensive Treatment Without Inpatient Requirements

The treatment they have here follows an intensive outpatient programming (IOP) format. IOP is a step down from inpatient care and allows clients to continue with work and family life while they get treatment.

A Client Friendly Environment

Clients have expressed gratitude for being able to step in and speak with a counselor when having an off day. Staff are reported as being kind but not sugar coating and speaking the truth. Intake only takes one hour as opposed to many hours at most clinics.

The nearest bus stop is just a three-minute walk so transportation to this facility is easy. If you’re looking for places to enjoy your sober time after a session, check out Kiwanis Park just a mile away. It features a serene walking trail where you can reflect on your recovery.
