St. Lucie Comprehensive Treatment Center

Located in Port St. Lucie, Florida, St. Lucie Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) provides outpatient care for adults age 18 and older who are living with opioid use disorder. 

Our clinic specializes in medication-assisted treatment (MAT), an evidence-based form of opioid addiction care that combines the use of prescription medication with counseling to promote long-term recovery. Research shows that this whole-person approach is a safe and effective way to treat opioid addiction, and methadone clinics across the United States have used MAT for multiple decades. 

 People who take part in MAT at our clinic may receive a prescription for methadone, buprenorphine, or Suboxone. These medications affect everyone differently, so the expert team at our Port St. Lucie, Florida, facility works closely with each person to determine which one best suits their needs. We carefully monitor each patient during their time with us, making any necessary adjustments to their medication to ensure continued progress. 

Medications like methadone are just one part of a person’s opioid addiction treatment at our Port St. Lucie location. For any methadone clinic to help patients find lasting recovery, it’s critical that they have a therapeutic element. 

 The medication we prescribe will help with the physical discomfort from withdrawal and opioid cravings, while the accompanying therapy sessions at our Port St. Lucie center will give you a space to work through the mental, social, and emotional aspects of your recovery journey. 

 Our clinic offers both individual and group counseling sessions. In individual therapy, you will meet privately with a trained professional who can help you work through the pain opioids have caused in your life and develop the skills needed to move forward. Group therapy offers a chance for you to learn from the experiences of others and form bonds with those who are at a similar stage of recovery. These sessions can help you discover that you are not alone in this process, and you’ll be able to work with those around you as you move toward a future in which you aren’t dependent on opioids. 

Choosing to pursue treatment for an opioid addiction isn’t an easy decision. But when you decide that MAT is the right choice for you, we strive to make the admissions process simple and stress-free. 

When you enter our Port St. Lucie addiction treatment center, you’ll be treated with dignity and compassion. We take a whole-person approach to opioid addiction treatment, focusing on your entire self rather than your specific set of symptoms. 

We’ll guide you through a series of basic tests prior to admission, discussing any previous treatment you may have received, your medical history, and your current reasons for seeking professional care. We’ll help you understand how MAT works and finalize your personalized care plan. 

From the time you begin treatment at our Port St. Lucie methadone clinic, we will ask you to play an active role in your recovery. By being present and engaged during your therapy sessions, you’ll set yourself up for success and have the greatest chance at achieving long-term recovery.
