Addiction Services

If you or a loved one are struggling with misuse of alcohol, prescription drugs, heroin, cocaine, marijuana, or opioids such as Oxycontin or Percocet, Centa offers comprehensive services to set you on a path toward recovery. We know that substance misuse changes normal desires and priorities. It changes normal behaviors and interferes with the ability to work, go to school, and to have good relationships with friends and family.

We’re here to help you.
