Sarasota Addiction Specialists

Located in downtown Sarasota, Florida, Sarasota Addiction Specialists is an outpatient addiction treatment provider dedicated to helping individuals find their voice and recover from substance use disorders. They offer a flexible continuum of care that ranges from day treatment or night treatment to intensive outpatient and standard outpatient services. Their mission focuses on creating a welcoming, supportive environment where clients can address underlying emotional issues and connect with their true selves.

Structured Programs That Fit Your Schedule

They have thorough and structured programs here, which give you an intensive level of treatment, but they also have enough options available so that you can find a program that fits your schedule. This includes their day treatment or night treatment programs as well as their IOP and step down outpatient therapy. Evening groups are available for IOP clients to better accommodate work, school, or family commitments.

I think it's unique that they also offer ongoing support through workshops like "Addiction and Shame Reduction" for program graduates.

Serving Adults and Teenagers

Specialized programming is available for both adults and adolescents ages 12 to 17. This way, they can serve a wide range of clients but everyone gets age appropriate treatment.

The team at Sarasota Addiction Specialists combines clinical licensure with personal lived experience in recovery. They use evidence based techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy, relapse prevention and trauma informed care strategies. The treatment center is in network with major insurers like Blue Cross Blue Shield, United, and Cigna, with sliding scale fees available.

Getting started involves contacting the center to discuss court ordered evaluations, assessments, or personalized treatment planning. Staff members can verify insurance benefits, explain sliding scale options, and help determine if the Day/Night or Intensive Outpatient track is the best fit for your needs.
