Don't settle for a generic psychiatrist for drug or alcohol issues. You deserve help that actually helps you feel happy again. (And, that's in-network with your insurance).
Your treatment here goes beyond traditional psychiatry to treat everything hiding behind the drugs or alcohol - all while still living at home! You rebalance your brain, create healthy thought patterns and heal underlying issues (like trauma, anxiety, depression or insomnia).
You have access to anti-craving medications like Vivitrol, methadone and Suboxone, as well as medications like antidepressants or antianxieties, all in the same place. Plus, unlimited therapy, if you want it. It's your treatment (and we actually listen).
