“We understand the unique challenges of fentanyl addiction and provide the clinical expertise needed for safe, successful recovery.”
What Is Fentanyl Addiction?
Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid up to 50 times stronger than heroin. While doctors prescribe fentanyl patches for severe pain, illicit fentanyl from illegal labs drives most overdoses today. Street fentanyl is often mixed with other drugs without users knowing, making overdoses extremely common. Fentanyl floods your brain with feel-good chemicals, stopping their production naturally. This creates intense cravings and makes quitting challenging without professional help.
Is Fentanyl Addictive?
Yes, fentanyl alters brain chemistry, causing intense cravings and dependence. Stopping suddenly can trigger withdrawal and increase overdose risk. Structured treatment gives you medication-informed safety, therapy, and relapse-prevention skills for lasting wellness.

FAQs About Fentanyl Addiction Treatment
How long does fentanyl withdrawal last?
Symptoms can begin within hours and last for a week or more. Sleep and mood issues may take longer to stabilize.
Can I taper off fentanyl on my own?
It’s not advised to try to wean off fentanyl alone, as it can be dangerous. Overdose and relapse risks are high, and medical detox and structured care significantly improve outcomes.
Do I need medical detox before outpatient fentanyl treatment?
Often, detox is a suitable first step because of fentanyl’s potency. We assess and coordinate safe detox referrals before transitioning you into our extended or partial-day treatment programs.
What therapies are included?
You’ll receive CBT, DBT, group therapy, family therapy, and holistic care, such as trauma yoga, nature walks, and more.
Do you offer virtual fentanyl treatment programs?
Yes, we provide virtual treatment at our day program level, which includes confidential telehealth therapy and group sessions.
Is detox the same as rehab?
No. Detox stabilizes your body; rehab teaches relapse prevention and coping skills.
Will fentanyl treatment affect my work or school?
Our programs are flexible, and documentation can be provided if needed.
Is treatment confidential?
Absolutely. All care follows HIPAA standards.
Do you treat dual diagnosis?
Yes. We provide dual diagnosis care for those with substance abuse as their primary concern. Care involves combined support for co-occurring conditions like anxiety, depression, and PTSD, which are common with fentanyl addiction.
How soon can I start?
Same-day and next-day assessments are available at our Springfield, MA, facility.
