Opiate Addiction

Life’s a journey. Make the most of every mile.

Compassionate, Evidence-Based Care for Opioid Recovery

Opiate addiction—also known as opioid use disorder (OUD)—is a growing public health crisis that affects individuals from all walks of life. At San Rafael Rehab, we offer a personalized and medically informed approach to treating opiate addiction, combining clinical expertise with compassionate care.

Whether you’re struggling with prescription painkillers or illicit opioids like heroin or fentanyl, our comprehensive program is designed to help you break free from dependence and reclaim your life.

What Are Opiates?

Opiates (or opioids) are powerful pain-relieving drugs that include both legal medications and illegal substances. Commonly abused opiates include:

  • Prescription opioids (Oxycodone, Hydrocodone, Morphine, Codeine)

  • Heroin

  • Fentanyl (synthetic opioid, significantly more potent than heroin)

While often prescribed for pain management, these drugs carry a high risk of addiction due to their euphoric effects and intense withdrawal symptoms.

Signs and Symptoms of Opiate Addiction

Recognizing the signs of opiate addiction is the first step toward recovery. Common symptoms include:

  • Increased tolerance or need for higher doses

  • Withdrawal symptoms when not using

  • Neglecting responsibilities at work, school, or home

  • Social withdrawal or secrecy

  • Financial or legal problems related to drug use

  • Cravings and inability to stop despite consequences

If you or someone you love is showing signs of opioid use disorder, professional help is essential.

Our Opiate Addiction Treatment Program

At San Rafael Rehab, we provide a full continuum of care for individuals battling opiate addiction, from detox to long-term recovery support.

1. Medically Supervised Opiate Detox

The first step is safely withdrawing from opioids under 24/7 medical supervision. We use medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to ease withdrawal symptoms and prevent complications. Common medications include:

  • Buprenorphine (Suboxone)

  • Methadone

  • Naltrexone

2. Individualized Treatment Plans

Once stabilized, each client receives a personalized treatment plan that may include:

  • One-on-one counseling (CBT, DBT, trauma-informed therapy)

  • Group therapy for peer support and accountability

  • Holistic therapies such as yoga, meditation, art, and fitness

  • Dual diagnosis care for co-occurring mental health disorders

3. Family Support & Education

We involve loved ones through family therapy sessions, education, and resources—because healing often begins at home.

4. Aftercare and Relapse Prevention

Recovery doesn’t stop after treatment. We provide:

  • Ongoing therapy and alumni support groups

  • Personalized aftercare planning

  • Relapse prevention tools and life skills coaching

  • Referrals to sober living or outpatient programs
