At Red Rock Recovery, we offer treatment for kratom substance use disorder. In our center in Lakewood, near Denver Colorado, we combine evidence-based therapies with Medication-Assisted Treatment and holistic activities to achieve long-term healing.

Recover From Kratom Addiction

Kratom and its derivative, 7-OH, are not FDA approved. While not an opiate, kratom has opioid-like properties because its active compounds bind to the same receptors in the brain as opioids like morphine. Kratom is commonly sold as a supplement and can be addictive.

Our kratom addiction treatment includes Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms. MAT can be part of a residential or outpatient program and is carried out in a safe setting that meets high clinical standards.

Alongside MAT, we use evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to address the root causes of addiction. These therapies also help prevent relapse and build essential coping mechanisms for sobriety.

Our rehab center is a distraction-free, nurturing environment. We curate a space to focus on feeling better and building skills that support a higher quality of living. We also offer a range of holistic activities to improve physical and mental health.
