Grand Junction is the largest city on Colorado's Western Slope and a hub for Mesa County and the rural towns around it. Our clinic has served the region since 2019 and is a local place for individuals and families facing opioid use, alcohol use, and related mental health concerns to get steady, compassionate support.
We offer accessible, evidence-based, non-judgmental medical addiction treatment. Our providers work with you to build a plan around your needs, whether you start with a phone call, an in-person visit, or a telehealth check-in that fits around work, school, or family.
Suboxone is a form of medication for addiction treatment (MAT), which pairs FDA-approved medication with counseling and medical support. Buprenorphine, its main ingredient, is a partial opioid agonist that eases withdrawal symptoms and cravings so you can focus on daily life and recovery.
Our Grand Junction providers treat opioid and alcohol use disorders and can also evaluate other substance use, including methamphetamine, cocaine, and benzodiazepines. Drug testing may be part of your care, and your provider will review any results with you and explain how they shape your plan.
