Opioid Detox and Alcohol Detox in Richmond, Virginia

The Coleman Institute’s innovative outpatient detox programs have helped thousands of people free themselves from addiction to Alcohol, Opioids, Suboxone, Methadone and Benzodiazepines. We have an extraordinarily high 98% completion rate for getting opioid patients onto the non-addictive opiate blocker, Naltrexone, which helps minimize the risk of relapse by reducing cravings and blocking highs. To help our patients get into long-term recovery and stay there, our unique program includes ongoing Naltrexone therapy and supportive case management after the withdrawal management phase.

Unlike other forms of rapid detox, the Coleman Method speeds patients through opiate withdrawal in relative comfort without the use of general anesthesia. More than 8,500 patients have completed our unique outpatient detox procedure over the past 20 years. Patients who live within driving distance are able to return to the comfort of their homes daily during their treatment. Others often choose to stay in a nearby hotel or AirBnB.

We are located in Central Virginia at the crossroads of I-95 and 64, about 1.5 hours from Washington, D.C., and 1.5 hours from Virginia Beach.

More Than 8,500 Patients Treated with the Coleman Method

“Cannot thank you, Annette, NP, and the nurses enough. I was nervous and out of it, but Kim was exceptional. Very welcoming, felt at home, and nerves soothed. I’d love to send her a note. And the nurse I had on day three – also extremely compassionate. It was a hard day for me, but we did it, and I love you guys for it. Here goes freedom and life. Addiction sucks and is a slow death.”

Opioid Patient – Richmond, VA, April 2018

“The staff was incredibly non-judgmental and empathetic, and I honestly feel like they cared about me and my comfort as a patient. They’re able to react dynamically in accordance with the specific needs of me as a patient. I never thought I’d get off Fentanyl…from the ladies answering the phones, to the nurses, to the doctors, and the rest of the staff, these folks are miracle workers with angel wings. Thank you for setting me free.”

Opioid Patient – Richmond, VA, October 2020

“I cannot say enough good things about the Coleman Institute. They saved my life. When I came to them, I was on Suboxone. Their detox protocol is, I believe, the best out there. I’ve detoxed many time, and this was by far the best detox I’ve ever had, as far as detoxes go. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking to get and STAY clean. They are caring and available to you when you need them. Don’t wait – call today!”
