Treatment Center
At the South Portland Comprehensive Treatment Center, our opioid addiction treatment process is designed to meet the individual needs of each person. We provide a comprehensive treatment plan that includes both medical and mental health services. During the treatment process, individuals will receive medication-assisted treatments, such as Suboxone and methadone, to help them manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms. They will also participate in individual and group counseling sessions, which can help them gain insight into their addiction and develop strong coping skills. Our staff is committed to helping individuals achieve long-term recovery and will provide them with the support and resources they need to reach their goals.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Addiction is something which I have several years of experience treating. People are often surprised to learn that treatment for substance abuse is not at all what they thought it would be. Typically, those with severe addictions will require a lifetime goal of sobriety while those with more mild addictions may acquire the ability to practice “controlled use” of chemicals. We will do a careful assessment of your symptoms so that effective goals for treatment can be established.

Substances of all types help us feel better, to an extent. Sometimes the feeling we get from substances isn't worth it anymore.

Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have written a book Overcoming Your Addictions which shows you how to apply the principles of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and CBT to your self-defeating addictions. To overcome an addiction you first need to learn to accept yourself unconditionally with your addiction. Your self-defeating addictive behavior does not diminish your worth as a person. Putting yourself down will not help you overcome your addiction. Secondly, you need to learn to build your discomfort tolerance for urges, develop a healthy network of friends who will not lead you back to your addiction, and a vitally absorbing interest in life that makes your life meaningful.
