Santa Rosa Treatment Program. Change Your Mind, Change Your Life.

Mission Statement

It is the mission of SRTP to assist its patients to transition from illicit substance use to a sober and stable lifestyle, utilizing psycho-social counseling, narcotic replacement medications (or medicated assisted treatment) and community referrals.

SRTP is thoroughly committed to the process of assisting our clients in making substantial (and lasting) life changes. 

About Us

Our Goal is to help you help yourself. Established in 1984, we want to help everyone struggling with opioid dependence to get the treatment they need to have a better life. SRTP is an Outpatient Treatment Program treating Opioid Use Disorder using Medicated Assisted Treatment (MAT), specifically Methadone to help those with Opioid Use Disorder. We offer MAT in the form of Methadone in our Methadone Maintenance Program and our 180‑Day Detoxification Program.

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for Opiate Use Disorder

MAT is the use of FDA- approved medications, in combination with counseling and behavioral therapies, to provide a “whole- patient” approach to the treatment of Substance use disorder. Methadone is especially useful in the treatment of Opioid Use Disorder due to its ability to:

·        Eliminate withdrawal symptoms for at least 24 hours

·        Decrease cravings to use

·        Act as a blockade, blocking the euphoric effects of other opiates


What is Methadone?

Methadone is a synthetic opioid used in the treatment of prolonged Opioid Use Disorder. Methadone is effective due to is ability to prevent physical withdrawal without producing euphoric effects. Methadone is an ongoing once-daily medication and our program requires daily participation.


Opioid Use Disorder

Opioid Use disorder (previously known as Opioid Addiction) develops from fundamental, long-term changes in the structure and functioning of the brain. Scientists classify OUD as a chronic disease because areas of the brain are altered from healthy state in lasting ways. While OUD is similar to other Substance Use Disorders, it has several unique features. Opioids can lead to physical dependence in a short time, as little as 4-8 weeks. In chronic users, abruptly stopping use of opioids leads to server withdrawal symptoms. Because of this, there is a significant motivation to continue using opioids to prevent withdrawal. Medicated Assisted Treatment is recognized as ‘Best Practices’ in the treatment of Opioid Use Disorder. (US Department of Health Services.)

Program Philosophy and Goals

SRTP maintains the philosophy that Opioid Use Disorder is a complicated and chronic condition involving metabolic, psychological, and sociological variables, which may result in persistent drug use despite negative consequences.

We believe the reason people develop an Opioid Use Disorder are unique. SRTP provides individualized treatment approaches in our Methadone Maintenance and Detoxification programs.

Treatment and Program Goals of SRTP Are:

1) Substantial insight by clients on how their drug use has negatively impacted their life and the development of productive, healthy support systems with family and "significant others:"

2) Substantial improvement, and maintenance of, the client's physical and mental health,

3) Lifestyle changes specific to clients' Treatment Plan goals. Examples could include stable employment or employability, improved health and wellness, and cessation of illegal activities.

4) These goals can be accomplished only through a cooperative effort between the client and the program staff.

Since the late 1960s, Methadone Treatment has proved to be the most effective treatment for individuals addicted to or physically dependent on opiates. Methadone is safe, effective, and one of the most heavily researched addiction treatment modalities. Methadone Maintenance Treatment (MMT) works by decreasing or eliminating the urge to use, stopping withdrawal symptoms, and acting as a blockade to prevent the euphoric effects of illicit opiates.

Treatment Services

Our treatment services are catered toward developing long-term solutions to our patient's problems. Using Medicated Assisted Treatment, One-on-one Counseling, and outside referrals, we do everything in our power to help you succeed in breaking the cycle of addiction and rebuild your life.


Medication-assisted treatment involves the administration of medication daily at our treatment facility. Our program is an excellent choice for individuals who have found abstinence-based treatment ineffective or for those unable to take time away from home and work for inpatient treatment.

    SRTP is a addiction recovery program however, it’s the people internally who make the journey a life changing experience. If you are dedicated to yourself, your recovery, these amazing people will commit themselves to you and pave the way to recovery.  Addiction is a disease which feeds on our physical and mental ability to function, it changes your prospective on life and your daily priority is consumed by THE addiction. The only way to overcome and get your life back is to come to the realization that in order to do so your lifestyle has to change. Forever. I was an addict for over 10 years due to an initial diagnosis of a medical condition and prescribed opioids to cope. I never realized the relentless and chained journey I was about to pursue…Methadone is looked at as a drug which, yes, it is. However, if you use it as a tool to achieve your goal, LIFE, you will succeed. I weaned down to 1mg and quit shortly after. I’m not going to lie it was challenging but I was determined to not be tethered to my addiction and took back my life. I will never look back. SRTP assisted in giving me back my integrity, prioritize my life, and surface my ability to just be me below the clouds. If you are determined to commit to YOU commit to the program. You are capable, you are worthy, you are in this world for a reason. Don’t take it for granted. Trust in the care you’re presented. Utilize it.  After all we are only human and humans deserve to LIVE
