Recognizing it

Signs Opioid Use Has Become a Problem

When a prescription or a habit starts running things

Opioid use often starts somewhere understandable: pain, a prescription, a hard season. It can become dependence before anyone names it. If some of these signs sound familiar, reach out. The first conversation is about listening, not judging.

Some common signs

  • You need more to get the same effect
  • You feel sick, restless or anxious when it wears off
  • Pills run out early, or you take them beyond the prescription
  • You get opioids from more than one place
  • Work, family and money are taking a back seat to using
  • You’ve tried to stop on your own, and it hasn’t held

Recognizing a few of these is reason enough to call. You don’t need to be sure.

Treatment

How Sunview Treats Opioid Addiction

Abstinence-based, medication-friendly

During the program, the only opioid-related medications are anti-craving medications prescribed and managed by a qualified provider. Treatment happens in PHP, IOP or OP, and most people join us after detox or residential care. You also meet one-on-one with your primary therapist every week for 45 to 60 minutes, and free door-to-door transportation to and from our center is available if you can’t drive yourself.

Suboxone and Vivitrol welcome

Buprenorphine and naltrexone are supported when a qualified outside provider prescribes and manages them. If you already have one, we keep care connected. If you don’t, we refer you.

Psychiatric care built in

Psychiatric evaluation and medication management through Telemed Clinix, scheduled for you in a private office on site.

One group, one facilitator

The same clinician leads your group for the whole session, so the work goes deeper instead of restarting every hour.

Random drug testing

Part of how we support your recovery and keep the group safe for everyone in it.

Beneath the use

Psychodynamic work, inner child work and Internal Family Systems look at what the opioids were quieting, at a pace that’s safe for you.

Family involvement

With your consent, your therapist contacts a loved one in your first week, and involvement grows at your pace.

How medication works at Sunview

Opioids and Co-Occurring Mental Health

Opioids often quiet something else: anxiety, depression, trauma. When the substance goes, those feelings can come back louder. We treat both at the same time, with therapy and psychiatric care from one team, so you’re not left facing them alone. We track depression and anxiety symptoms with the PHQ-9 and GAD-7 throughout treatment, and review your treatment plan with you every month.

When Detox Comes First

If you’ve been using opioids consistently for a while, medically supervised detox and often residential treatment come first, so you’re medically stable before intensive therapy starts.

Methadone maintenance needs a different kind of program than ours. If that’s where you are, we’ll help you find it. Either way, we’ll plan Sunview as your next step.

Week to week

What Treatment Looks Like Week to Week

The step after detox, with your medication plan kept in place

Most people join us right after detox or residential care.

  1. Week one

    Getting started

    Intake, your first groups and your first individual session. With your consent, your therapist contacts a loved one. We schedule your Telemed Clinix psychiatric appointment for you, and if you take Suboxone or Vivitrol, we coordinate with your prescriber.

  2. A typical day

    Morning or evening

    PHP is one continuous group from 9 AM to 1 PM with the same facilitator. Evening IOP meets Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 6 to 9 PM. Once a week, 45 to 60 minutes with your primary therapist, plus random drug testing.

  3. Over time

    Stepping down

    From PHP to IOP, then OP, with the same team. Your medication stays with your outside prescriber, and we keep care connected.

Level of care

Which Level of Care Fits

Where most people start after detox

Most people start in the Partial Hospitalization Program right after detox or residential care, for daily structure while living at home. From there they step down to the Intensive Outpatient Program and then the Outpatient Program, with the same team. Our Clinical Director recommends where you start.

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.

    If you are struggling with addiction, this is the place that will make you feel like home. The therapist are amazing in their own unique ways. Group sessions become your best friends in the circle. They are welcoming to any type of addiction, they are loving, and strong therapists.

  • Henry E.

    It was the most rewarding experience I've had in such a long moment of time! The knowledge and expertise of the staff was immeasurable, of high quality and refreshing! A special shout out to Jillian my therapist, Carissa and Frank! This by no means is meant or intended to take from the excellent job done by each individual employee and Sunview. I'm not the type that would just throw around gratitude lightly! Last but not least, I want to give a shout out to all my peers and all participants of Sunview, for their unselfish willingness to surrender and assist the healing and recovery of others! God bless you! Love, Henry Edwards and Tiffany Cunningham!

    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. 😊💕

  • 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.
