Opioid Addiction Treatment & Rehab




Numerous opioid addiction treatment choices are available, yet not all may be suitable for every individual.



Based on the severity and duration of your opioid or opiate dependency, your treatment options can range from medical detox, residential rehabilitation, outpatient programs, to levels in-between like partial hospitalization or intensive outpatient care.


If you're struggling with addiction to opioids such as OxyContin or opiates like morphine, rest assured that your substance use disorder can be effectively addressed. At Wildcat Recovery, we provide comprehensive treatment for opioid addiction encompassing various strategies, blending medical and therapeutic approaches to aid your transition to a life free from opiates. Our team comprises addiction science specialists committed to guiding you through your recovery journey. Our ultimate objective is to empower you towards a sustained recovery path.

What Are Opioids? 


Opioids, a powerful form of pain relief medication, are categorized as controlled substances, meaning they can only be legally acquired with a prescription. While many opioids are artificially manufactured, some types like morphine, opium, and heroin are naturally derived from the poppy plant, known as opiates.


Common opioids include:


  • Oxycodone (OxyContin)
  • Hydromorphone (Dilaudid)
  • Hydrocodone
  • Codeine
  • Morphine
  • Methadone
  • Fentanyl
  • Heroin


Recognizing An Opioid Addiction

As people navigate through the struggles of opioid use, distinctive red flags frequently appear on their journey towards addiction. Whether noticed by loved ones, friends, or the individuals themselves, these symptoms can act as crucial warning signs. Opioid addiction is characterized by the presence of two or more of the following signs:


  • Using opioids in excess or for longer than intended
  • Having failed attempts to cease opioid use
  • Dedicating excessive time to obtaining or consuming opioids
  • Experiencing cravings for opioids
  • Struggling to meet obligations at work, school, or home due to opioid use
  • Encountering social or interpersonal difficulties due to opioid use
  • Prioritizing opioids over other activities
  • Using opioids in risky situations
  • Continuing opioid use despite harming mental or physical well-being
  • Needing higher doses of opioids for desired effects
  • Experiencing withdrawal symptoms when attempting to stop opioid use


Therapy for Opioid and Opiate Dependency

Once trapped in the grip of opioids, navigating daily life becomes a daunting task. Addiction often brings destruction to families, careers, finances, and beyond. However, your future doesn't have to be on this dark path. Support is closer than you think.


If you're struggling with opioid addiction, the best course of action is to join a drug rehabilitation program or start online counseling sessions through the Nobu app. Our skilled clinical team has a deep understanding of how to tackle opioid dependence, customizing programs to meet your specific needs.

Opiate Rehab


Rehabilitation for opioid addiction treatment entails a comprehensive four-phase approach at Wildcat Recovery:


  1. Intake assessment: Prior to beginning the program, our evaluation team conducts comprehensive medical and psychiatric evaluations to assess the intensity of the addiction and identify any concurrent mental health issues. At Wildcat Recovery, our intake assessments are thoughtfully crafted to comprehend each individual's distinct needs.
  2. Medical detox: This crucial phase aids in ridding the body of opiates or opioid substances. Understanding the discomfort commonly associated with opioid detox, we collaborate with local partners who offer detox programs for support.
  3. Treatment and recovery: Each individual at Wildcat Recovery receives a personalized treatment plan adjusted to their unique needs. Alongside specialized medical care in residential and outpatient settings, our programs incorporate various therapeutic interventions like individual sessions, group therapy, and recreational activities.
  4. Ongoing support: As treatment comes to a close, our team works with each individual to create a comprehensive aftercare plan to prevent relapse. This might involve scheduling follow-up appointments, attending regular counseling sessions, joining local support groups such as Narcotics Anonymous, and exploring options for sober living arrangements. By implementing structured aftercare strategies, we aim to uphold the progress made during rehabilitation by providing ongoing guidance and support.

Types of Opiate and Opioid Addiction Treatment


Multiple treatment options exist for opioid addiction, though not all may suit every individual. Depending on the extent and duration of your opioid or opiate dependence, treatment possibilities range from medical detox and inpatient rehabilitation to outpatient programs or intermediary levels like partial hospitalization or intensive outpatient care.


An appropriate course of opioid addiction treatment can be suggested by a healthcare provider, such as a primary care physician. Nonetheless, the most suitable level of care will be determined following a comprehensive clinical evaluation at a facility such as Wildcat Recovery.


Inpatient Rehab for Opiate and Opioid Addiction


For individuals struggling with severe opioid dependencies, inpatient rehabilitation presents as the optimal solution. After completing a medical detoxification program for opioids, patients can reside on-site at a rehabilitation facility where they receive round-the-clock nursing supervision, medication management as needed, counseling sessions with certified addiction therapists, and additional support services.


Inpatient rehab serves as an essential resource for those finding it challenging to manage overpowering cravings for opiates without professional oversight. Through a comprehensive assessment and structured treatment planning, patients continuously review and adjust their goals as they progress through the program. This level of care also provides a platform to address any obstacles encountered during treatment, with guidance from the treatment planning team.


By participating in residential treatment, individuals have the opportunity to acquire the skills necessary to navigate life without relying on opiate medications, setting the stage for a healthier future. Engaging in both individual and group programs, patients develop robust coping strategies and recovery skills. Embracing inpatient rehab lays the groundwork for sustained sobriety, significantly increasing the likelihood of successful recovery.


During their stay at Wildcat Recovery's inpatient treatment program for opioid addiction, patients receive tailored care based on their clinical needs.


  • 24-hour nursing supervision
  • Co-occurring disorders treatment
  • Medication management, as necessary
  • Nutritionally balanced meals prepared by a nutritionist
  • Individual therapy with an addiction counselor
  • Group or 12-step therapy that may address topics about substance abuse, grief and loss, sexuality, trauma survival, self-esteem, family patterns, assertiveness, and interpersonal relationships
  • Family therapy, as needed
  • Alternative therapy options, such as exercise and art activities
  • Aftercare and discharge planning


Inpatient rehabilitation offers individuals the opportunity to prioritize their overall health and well-being, encompassing physical and mental wellness, relationships, finances, and beyond. Hence, engaging in a comprehensive range of care services, beginning with medical detox and extending to aftercare, is highly advisable. While the duration of an inpatient program could span 28 days or more, research indicates that the longer an individual remains in treatment, the greater their prospects for successful recovery.

Outpatient addiction treatment for opioids and opiates:

provides a comprehensive rehabilitation experience similar to inpatient care, but without the requirement to stay on-site. This type of rehab is often recommended for individuals who have already completed more intensive levels of treatment, such as medical detox, inpatient, or partial hospitalization, and are now in a stable physical and mental condition, seeking support as they reintegrate into their daily lives.


Patients in outpatient programs can fulfill family and work commitments while attending therapy sessions in the evenings or on weekends. Those in daytime programs have the opportunity to acquire essential skills for maintaining sobriety while resuming their education or job duties.


Structured outpatient treatment involves regular sessions with addiction specialists, focusing on counseling and therapy to promote autonomy and support ongoing recovery. Our counselors utilize various approaches, including motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), multidimensional family therapy, and contingency management to assist individuals during outpatient treatment.


At Wildcat Recovery, outpatient treatment usually contains the following services:


Individual counseling

Group therapy

Psychiatric counseling for those with anxiety, depression, and other co-occurring disorders

Nutritional counseling


Group Therapy


Therapy plays a crucial role in all drug rehabilitation programs. At Wildcat Recovery, every patient is guaranteed access to group therapy sessions, regardless of the specific program they are participating in. These groups adopt a collaborative approach to counseling and may involve multiple therapists in an intimate setting.


In the context of opioid rehabilitation, group therapy can be particularly beneficial as many individuals grapple with the stigma associated with addiction. Feelings of shame, embarrassment, and diminished self-esteem are common. By sharing their stories and connecting over shared experiences, participants come to realize that they are not alone in their struggles. This shared sense of solidarity fosters a climate of healing within the group.


Through group therapy, members can provide motivation, facilitate open communication about their journeys, and develop healthy coping mechanisms for their emotions. Strong bonds and meaningful connections often form among participants as they navigate these challenges together.


The topics explored in these sessions span a wide range of areas, fostering personal growth and transformation:


  • Educational program for addiction
  • Effective stress management strategies
  • Mastering triggers and cravings
  • Preventing relapse
  • Cultivating healthy habits and relationships
  • Proper medication management
  • Handling mental health challenges


At Wildcat Recovery, we offer a variety of group therapy sessions designed to support and empower our patients on their journey to sobriety.


  • Peer support groups create a nurturing environment for individuals to share their experiences and receive encouragement and feedback from others who understand their struggles, fostering improved communication skills and emotional expression.


  • Educational groups provide valuable insights into addiction and relapse by exploring the scientific aspects of substance use disorders, empowering individuals to confront and conquer the challenges of addiction with knowledge and understanding.


  • Cognitive-behavioral therapy groups help patients reshape their thought patterns and behaviors related to addiction, promoting positive change and resilience in their recovery process.


  • Life skills groups equip individuals with practical tools and strategies to manage triggers and stressors in daily life, offering guidance on job-seeking, budgeting, and other essential skills necessary for maintaining a healthy, balanced lifestyle.


  • Experiential groups offer hands-on opportunities for individuals to apply and practice their newfound skills in real-world scenarios, such as dining out or engaging in social activities, to enhance their confidence and ability to navigate challenges in sobriety.


Dual Diagnosis Treatment:


At Wildcat Recovery, we recognize the complex relationship between substance abuse and mental health disorders. Many individuals struggling with addiction also face co-occurring mental health conditions, necessitating a comprehensive approach to treatment.


Dual diagnosis refers to the presence of both addiction and a mental health disorder, which often exacerbate and perpetuate each other. Addressing these interconnected issues simultaneously is crucial for achieving lasting recovery and overall well-being.


Common co-occurring mental health disorders with addiction include:

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • PTSD
  • Bipolar disorder
  • Schizophrenia
  • Eating disorders
  • ADHD.


Our integrated treatment model focuses on addressing the unique needs of each individual by conducting a thorough evaluation to identify and treat co-occurring mental health concerns alongside addiction.


At Wildcat Recovery, our commitment is to provide holistic and personalized care that encompasses both addiction and mental health treatment, empowering individuals to achieve true healing and lasting recovery.

Paying for Opiate and Opioid Rehab


Like any medical treatment, a fee is associated with drug rehab. However, this is a necessary expense as it is a life-saving measure that can help anyone facing opiate addiction get their life back on track. Opioid addiction treatment options shouldn’t have to break the bank, and many insurance companies will help lighten the financial load. Our intake coordinators at Wildcat Recovery are well-versed in the nuances of insurance and can help each patient understand what their plan covers.


In the instance that insurance does not cover the entire cost of rehab, there are other methods of paying for treatment, including private loans, public loans, scholarships, employee assistance programs, and more. While it may seem burdensome, paying for a short time of rehab far outweighs the cost of living with addiction.


Does Insurance Cover Opiate and Opioid Addiction Treatment?


The cost of rehab programs varies from center to center. Typically, inpatient treatment costs are higher than outpatient care due to the residential component. Many people delay or avoid treatment because they fear that they can’t afford it when, in fact, it is often covered by their health insurance policy.


Our intake coordinators at Wildcat Recovery are experienced in coordinating with many insurance companies and will work with you one-on-one to discuss your insurance plan coverage.


Alternative Payment Options for Rehab


If you believe you can’t afford rehab and finances are an issue, state and low-income government assistance options are available. You may also consider borrowing money from a family member or taking out a personal loan to finance rehab.


If you have questions about your insurance coverage, do not hesitate to call our Recovery Advocates at Wildcat Recovery. Calls are free and confidential, and there is no pressure to commit to treatment. Our interest is in helping you finance rehab and get the help you need for opiate addiction.
