OUR SERVICES
OUTPATIENT DETOXIFICATION:
Withdrawal Management and Stabilization
We can detox from: alcohol, opioids (such as heroin, Methadone, Buprenorphine, painkillers), benzodiazepines (such as Diazepam and Xanax), or a combination of the above.
EARLY RECOVERY TREATMENT: Support for Engaging Recovery and Maintaining Sobriety
We work to treat the whole person by addressing your substance-related social, psychological, and biological needs. We combine individual and group therapy, medical appointments, and more to help you accomplish your individualized goals.
A UNIQUE OPIOID WITHDRAWAL PROTOCOL:
The Parallax Center utilizes a unique opioid withdrawal protocol that avoids the use of opioid medications and allows for complete abstinence from any form of opioid medication. This allows for the induction of naltrexone, a non-addictive medication which can more rapidly restore normal brain function and thereby help to heal the opioid-impaired nervous system. Find out more about this and what patients have to say on our detoxification page by clicking here. Read our about our published results by clicking here.
