Spokane Comprehensive Treatment Center View Specialties



Spokane Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) is a leading provider of outpatient opioid addiction treatment in Spokane, Washington. Our premier treatment center offers medication-assisted treatment (MAT), which combines the use of prescription medications with individual and group counseling, for adults age 18 and older.
 
Spokane CTC takes a comprehensive approach to addiction treatment. Clients receive life-altering support with a minimal time commitment. Comprehensive care means that we provide prescription medications for immediate assistance in treating opioid addiction, along with counseling services to help clients build a foundation for lasting recovery.
 
Medication-assisted treatment at Spokane CTC may involve the use of methadone, buprenorphine, or Suboxone. Clients may experience different effects from these medications. We offer three options to provide the greatest amount of support for clients. If one medication does not offer sufficient relief, our treatment team can suggest an alternative that may work better. MAT medications work by imitating some of the effects of opioids, but they don’t produce the disorientation and drowsiness that accompany opioid use. With the support offered by MAT medications, clients don’t undergo the severe withdrawal symptoms that are typical of opioid detox. They also find relief from the overwhelming cravings that often lead to relapse even after the detox period has passed.
 
Decades of clinical studies has shown MAT medications to be safe and effective. All medications used in MAT are FDA-approved. The positive outcomes associated with medication-assisted treatment have led it to become the opioid addiction treatment approach recommended by leading organizations like the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). MAT is directly linked to increased treatment retention rates, increased employment rates, decreased opioid-related deaths, decreased criminal activity, and decreased opioid-related illnesses.
 
Spokane CTC offers MAT because of the range of benefits it provides for clients as they seek to escape from opioid addiction and the many negative consequences of using opioids like heroin, fentanyl, and prescription pain medications. Although medications are a unique and powerful tool, they only provide partial support. Counseling is a necessary element of MAT. We offer group and individual therapies to help clients identify factors that may have led to addiction. Gaining self-awareness around emotional health and unhealthy social and family dynamics is necessary to support lasting recovery from opioid addiction.
 
The premier outpatient addiction treatment program at Spokane CTC is designed to identify a client’s unique needs and provide them with an individualized treatment plan that can make a lasting difference. We seek to empower our clients with the tools they need to overcome addiction and build a foundation for lifelong recovery.
