Our Comprehensive Addiction Treatment Program
At Sequoia MD, we take a holistic and patient-centered approach to addiction treatment. Our outpatient addiction treatment program is designed to address the physical, mental, and emotional aspects of addiction.
Therapies and Medications
We offer a range of evidence-based therapies and medications to support patients on their journey to recovery. Our medication options include buprenorphine, naltrexone, acamprosate, and disulfiram. These medications are integrated into a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to each individual's unique needs.
Treatment Frequency
The frequency of appointments varies depending on where an individual is in their recovery journey. Patients may attend therapy sessions every two weeks to approximately every three months. We understand the importance of flexibility in treatment plans to accommodate the diverse needs of our patients.
Duration of Treatment
The duration of treatment is a decision left to the patient. While we emphasize that addiction is a chronic disease, we respect that each individual's journey is unique. We work collaboratively with our patients to create a personalized, long-term care plan that supports their ongoing recovery.
Confidentiality
We prioritize the confidentiality of our clients. Our commitment to privacy is especially crucial for those who prefer to keep their treatment confidential, sometimes due to concerns about insurance coverage. At Sequoia MD, patients can trust that their privacy is highly respected.
Individualized Treatment Plans
We recognize that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to addiction treatment. Sequoia MD does not follow a rigid model but instead tailors treatment programs to the individual. Whether someone prefers community meetings, individual therapy, or a combination of approaches, we start with what works for the patient and build on that foundation.
Family Involvement
Family involvement in the treatment process is at the discretion of the patient. We respect the autonomy of our clients in deciding how much, if any, involvement their family members will have in their treatment journey. Our focus is on creating a supportive and collaborative environment that aligns with the preferences and needs of the individual.
Collaborative Approach with Psychiatrists
While Sequoia MD does not have a resident psychiatrist, we maintain strong relationships with psychiatrists in the community. This collaborative approach allows us to provide comprehensive care by coordinating with mental health professionals when needed.
What Sets Sequoia MD Apart
Sequoia MD distinguishes itself from other programs through several key features:
Subscription-Based Model
Our subscription-based model ensures that our patients have consistent access to care without the constraints of traditional fee-for-service arrangements. This model allows for more extended and meaningful interactions between clinicians and patients.
Comprehensive Care
We pride ourselves on providing significantly more time with clinicians, offering a more comprehensive range of services compared to many outpatient substance abuse treatment clinics. Our goal is to address the broader health needs of our patients, recognizing the interconnected nature of physical and mental well-being.
Compassionate Treatment
Sequoia MD is not a treatment mill. We prioritize quality over quantity, focusing on delivering personalized care rather than adhering to a high-volume, standardized approach. Our white-glove approach ensures that each patient receives the attention and care they deserve.
Accessibility
We prioritize accessibility to ensure that our services are within reach for all members of the community. Our commitment to accessibility extends beyond the physical aspects of our clinic to encompass the flexibility and adaptability of our treatment programs.
Long-Term Care Focus
Unlike some programs that may provide short-term interventions, Sequoia MD is invested in the long-term care of our patients. We recognize that addiction is a chronic condition, and our approach reflects a commitment to supporting individuals throughout their ongoing recovery journey.
Additional Services
Sequoia MD goes beyond the standard offerings of many outpatient clinics. Our diverse range of services includes primary care, outpatient addiction treatment, diabetes care, and gender-affirming care, providing a comprehensive healthcare solution for our community.
