Care that treats you like a person

When you reach out for help in Lakewood, it all starts with a real conversation — no phone trees, no rehearsed sales script. Dial our number and a live member of our team answers and listens, because we understand that the feel of that opening moment sets the stage for everything after it.

Neither mental illness nor addiction stops at any county line, and Jefferson County knows that firsthand. Across Colorado, more than 1,800 people are lost to overdose in a typical year, and roughly one in five adults nearby struggles with a mental health condition within any twelve-month span. What weighs on us most is how seldom those individuals ever make it to treatment — priced out, worn down by stigma, or simply unsure where to turn. Tearing down those barriers is precisely why we do things the way we do.

That’s why our whole approach rests on flexible outpatient scheduling, with groups that meet both first thing in the morning and after the workday ends. Getting well shouldn’t cost you your income, your education, or your time with the people you care about — it should fit naturally into the Lakewood life you’re already living rather than tear it apart. And confidentiality is something we defend without compromise, from the moment you call through every session down the line.

On top of that, we won’t let insurance confusion become the point where you give up. Before you commit to anything, we’ll go over your coverage and options together and lay them out in language that truly clicks, so the road ahead looks like a clear path forward instead of a fog of uncertainty.

You don't have to be at your worst to ask for help.

We’ll have someone who listens without judging call you right back!

Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid originally developed for severe pain, roughly 50 times more potent than heroin and 100 times more potent than morphine. Because so little of it is needed to cause an overdose, it’s also one of the most dangerous drugs to use, especially when it’s mixed into other substances without the user’s knowledge.

Common signs include using more or longer than intended, strong cravings, needing more of the drug to feel the same effect, neglecting responsibilities, continued use despite clear risks, and withdrawal symptoms when not using. Because of fentanyl’s potency, tolerance and dependence can develop quickly.

Its potency means the margin between an effective dose and a fatal one is extremely small, and it’s difficult to detect by taste, smell, or appearance when mixed into pills or other drugs. Fentanyl test strips can help identify contaminated substances, and carrying naloxone is strongly recommended for anyone with a history of opioid use.

Misuse refers to taking fentanyl in a way other than prescribed, using it without a prescription, or unknowingly using drugs contaminated with it. Addiction (opioid use disorder) involves physical and psychological reliance, including cravings and withdrawal, and requires medical support to address safely.

Fentanyl withdrawal is rarely life-threatening on its own, but it’s intense — nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, muscle aches, and insomnia are common, often more severe than with other opioids. The bigger danger is what comes after: tolerance drops fast during withdrawal, so a relapse at a previous dose is a leading cause of overdose. Medically supervised detox and a clear treatment plan matter enormously here.

Common program lengths are 30, 60, and 90 days, though many people benefit from longer-term MAT and outpatient support that continues well beyond that. Given fentanyl’s overdose risk, longer engagement in treatment and continued MAT are strongly associated with better long-term outcomes.

Inpatient (residential) rehab provides 24/7 care in a live-in facility, often recommended for fentanyl use given the overdose risk and detox considerations involved. Outpatient rehab allows you to live at home while attending scheduled treatment and MAT appointments, offering more flexibility once you’re medically stable.

Costs vary widely based on program type, length, location, and whether MAT is included. Outpatient programs are generally more affordable than residential, and many facilities offer payment plans, sliding-scale fees, or accept insurance to reduce out-of-pocket expenses.

Options include medically supervised detox, inpatient and outpatient rehab, medication-assisted treatment (buprenorphine, methadone, or naltrexone), behavioral therapies (like CBT), support groups, and ongoing aftercare. Because fentanyl can complicate the start of buprenorphine treatment, providers often plan the induction carefully to avoid triggering withdrawal.

Yes. Medication-assisted treatment combined with counseling reduces opioid use, lowers overdose risk, and improves quality of life — and it remains the most effective approach even with a drug as potent as fentanyl. Ongoing management and support improve long-term success.

Aftercare is key to maintaining recovery and staying safe. This may include continued MAT, ongoing therapy, support groups (like NA or SMART Recovery), sober living homes, and relapse-prevention strategies — including carrying naloxone and knowing the signs of an overdose.
