Substances

Substances We Treat Most Often

Alcohol and crack cocaine lead the list

Alcohol and crack cocaine are the substances we see most. We also treat opioids and benzodiazepines, usually as the next step after medically supervised detox. Many people come to us using more than one substance, and often with anxiety, depression or trauma alongside it.

Levels of care

Outpatient Addiction Treatment: PHP, IOP and OP

Keep your job. Sleep in your own bed.

Every level includes group therapy with one facilitator for the whole session, individual therapy, psychiatric care through Telemed Clinix and free door-to-door transportation if you can’t drive. You step down as you progress, with the same team.

Medication

Abstinence-Based, Medication-Friendly

Free of substances doesn’t mean free of medication

While you’re in treatment, marijuana, stimulants, opioids and benzodiazepines are off the table. At the same time, we support medications that help recovery. Anti-craving medications like naltrexone and Suboxone are welcome when a qualified outside provider prescribes and manages them, and we coordinate with them.

A prescription or a medical card doesn’t decide fit on its own. During pre-screening we look at what you take, how much, how often and for how long.

How medication works here

  • Psychiatric medications managed through Telemed Clinix
  • Suboxone, Vivitrol and naltrexone through your outside provider
  • Same psychiatric provider after you finish, if you want

Our approach

Going Deeper Than Coping Skills

Skills matter. So does where the triggers began.

We teach coping skills and relapse prevention. But skills without insight are a band-aid over a bullet hole: it’s hard to change a trigger you don’t understand. So we go beneath the presenting problem, at a pace that’s safe for you.

The why behind the behavior

Psychodynamic work looks at how past experiences and relationships still shape what you do today, so the pattern makes sense instead of just being resisted.

Inner child work

Old experiences of feeling unsafe, rejected or not good enough can drive adult choices. We help you recognize them and respond from who you are now.

Internal Family Systems

IFS is part of our group topics and individual sessions: understanding the different parts of yourself, including the one that reaches for a substance.

Carefrontation

Carefrontation is honest feedback, given with care: compassion and accountability at the same time, without shame.

How therapy works at Sunview
Safety first

When You Need Detox or Residential First

If you need something else first, we’ll help you find it.

Outpatient treatment works when you’re medically and psychiatrically steady enough to take part. If you’ve been using opioids or benzodiazepines regularly for a long time, or if stopping could cause dangerous withdrawal, medically supervised detox and often residential care come first.

We’ll tell you honestly during pre-screening, help you find the right place, and plan Sunview as your next step. Most people who come to us are stepping down from exactly that kind of care.

Family Involvement in Addiction Treatment

Addiction affects the whole family, and families often see patterns that aren’t obvious in treatment. With your consent, your therapist contacts a loved one during your first week. After that, involvement follows your pace: updates, calls, or family sessions every few weeks.

If you’re hesitant, that’s okay. Nobody is pressured into it. We’ll explore what’s underneath the hesitation, when you’re ready.

Which Level of Care Fits for Substance Use

You don’t have to know before you call

Many people start in the Partial Hospitalization Program after detox or residential treatment. Others start in the Intensive Outpatient Program, day or evening, or in the Outpatient Program when their pre-screening supports it. Our Clinical Director recommends the level that fits you.

Psychiatric care and medication management

Sunview is outpatient care.

If detox, residential treatment or housing needs to come first, we’ll help you get there and plan Sunview as your next step.

What People Say About Sunview Wellness

  • Julie V.

    Sunview Wellness was the icing on the cake in my mental health journey and recovery and it honestly changed my life for the better..This program was outstanding in the approach they implement to help all of their clients. The important thing is you have to really want the help and do the work to get where you want and need to be. I believe participation in the group therapy is essential even though it may not be easy at first. Every single person that works at Sunview Wellness is caring and really wants everyone to get well. Laura Contreras was my therapist and she is one of the most caring empathetic individuals I have ever come across. She was truly the right therapist for me. Mia stood out to me ( even though everyone was good) as an excellent group facilitator . Karissa Delaney the office manager was always a welcoming face in the morning. She was always willing to help out with any concerns or questions that I had. I was actually sad when my time came to leave Sunview even though I was ready. I made many friends and enjoyed the interaction with other people that GOT IT with NO JUDGEMENT! And Finally thank you Frank for overseeing and having such a wonderful place for people to come and heal. I’m forever greatful. 😊💕

    I would like to share my experience by telling everyone what a great program this is and how much my life has changed due to this wonderful program. The staff is great and there therapist are very thorough and supportive.

  • Jake J.

    Sunview Wellness is second to none. The staff at Sunview are amazing people who truly want to make their clients lives better and healthier. The staff provides you and others with an environment conducive to healing, learning and managing your life. You are able to express yourself without judgment from the staff or other clients. You are provided guidance through group sessions, private one-on-one sessions with a therapist and written materials to use outside of the facility. Although Sunview Wellness is a business and needs revenue to survive, the staff focuses predominately on your health and not on its bottom line. I highly recommend Sunview Wellness as an option for your path to healthier and more productive life.

    Wonderful place: caring, understanding, supportive, efficient, knowledgeable and friendly staff.

  • Matthew L.

    Gabe is awesome! I have had therapists before at other practices and he is one of the most empathetic and down to earth providers I have had. The group facilitators and other staff there are very kind and helpful as well. The support to get you back onto a good mental health path is amazing. Would recommend if you want more help than just a one on one therapist but want to still go home and/or work after.

  • Erica S.

    I just wanted to express my gratitude, every single staff was so kind and compassionate. It took me a while to actually be receptive to the things they were teaching me and trying to help me. But once I was and truly understood and was willing to help myself too it was magic. I’m grateful for them. I’d recommend them to anyone! I also would recommend for Sunview to include same sex groups at least once a week, I believe it helps common issues and resolution insight and connection a more comfortable space for the same sex to connect to each other without feeling judgement or afraid to express their opinions and experiences in front of the other sex. (In my afternoon groups was primary female and it was an amazing experience) so much props to Sunview for giving me the tools and resources to believe myself and better myself! Thank for to every staff member there!!!!
