A Note from Our Director
“At Southland, I believe that healing starts with feeling seen, heard, and supported. My approach to behavioral health care is holistic, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive, treating the whole person, not just symptoms. Through our integrated, one-stop model, I work to make sure each client receives wraparound support that addresses mental health needs alongside physical health, social services, and basic life needs. My team and I work closely together to provide coordinated, compassionate care rooted in trust, respect, and understanding. Clients receive therapy, group support, case management, substance use and recovery services, and wellness programming, all designed to promote healing, stability, and long-term well-being.“

Patient's Wellness Journey
Medication-Assisted Treatment
- Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is an evidence-based approach that combines FDA-approved medications with counseling and recovery support to treat opioid and other substance use disorders. MAT works by reducing cravings, easing withdrawal symptoms, and helping stabilize brain chemistry. When the body is no longer in constant distress, individuals are better able to focus on healing, rebuilding relationships, maintaining employment, and engaging fully in daily life.
- MAT is not simply replacing one substance with another. It is a medically supervised treatment that supports long-term recovery, reduces the risk of overdose, and improves overall health outcomes. At Southland, MAT is delivered in a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where each person’s goals and readiness are honored.
- MAT at Southland includes:
- Medical evaluation and ongoing monitoring
- Medical evaluation and ongoing monitoring
• FDA-approved medications for opioid use disorder
• Individual counseling and behavioral therapy
• Relapse prevention planning
• Care coordination with primary care and behavioral health
• Education about overdose prevention and safety planning
• Support for co-occurring mental health conditions
• Culturally responsive, person-centered care
- Our goal is to provide stability, safety, and support so individuals can move forward in recovery with confidence and dignity.
Substance-Use Disorder Counseling
Substance Use Disorder (SUD) counseling is a safe, supportive space to talk about alcohol or drug use and how it affects your life. An SUD counselor provides a safe place for a person to talk about their struggles and learn about how drugs or alcohol affect their brain and body. Together, they make a plan to stop using and find new, healthy activities to enjoy. It’s a step-by-step process to take back your health and future.
