For women in Monima’s Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) Programs, Medication-Assisted Treatment is available when it’s clinically appropriate as part of substance use disorder treatment. MAT eases the grip of cravings, which makes space for the deeper work of healing to begin.
That work reaches beyond medication. It brings together trauma-focused and somatic therapies with holistic practices like acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), so care supports the whole person: mind, body, and spirit.
MAT is most commonly used for opioid use disorder and alcohol use disorder. It works by easing cravings and withdrawal symptoms, which lowers the day-to-day physical pressure that can make early recovery so hard to maintain.
As the body settles and cravings lessen, it becomes easier to focus on the deeper work: trauma, mental health, and the patterns that so often underlie substance use. Medication should never be treated as a standalone solution; it should always work alongside therapy as part of one individualized treatment plan.

At Monima, substance use treatment is built around the whole person, not just the drug or alcohol. Our outpatient treatment programs, including PHP and IOP, offer structured daily support from a team that includes clinicians and therapists, psychiatric providers, and holistic practitioners, all under one roof. Because everyone on your team is in the same building and regularly communicating about your care, your treatment stays connected, and nothing gets lost between providers.
The main difference is time and intensity. PHP provides full-day programming, while IOP offers morning sessions with a flexible weekly schedule. Both programs offer access to the same services—on-site psychiatric care, 2–3 individual sessions per week, neuropsychological testing, and weekly acupuncture—with PHP providing more intensive support for those who need it.
Monima’s Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) was built for women seeking part-time treatment for moderate to severe mental health, trauma, or substance use issues. IOP is designed specifically for women stepping down from a higher level of care, balancing treatment with work or school, or needing intensive support while maintaining their daily responsibilities. IOP clients attend treatment three to five days per week in the mornings, providing both structure and some flexibility with daily responsibilities.
Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is the highest level of care available at Monima. PHP is best suited for clients with severe mental health, trauma, or substance use challenges that have begun to interfere with daily life and continue to persist despite therapy or medication. Most clients take a leave of absence from work, school, or their daily routines to fully commit themselves to the program. While in PHP, clients will be engaged in treatment five days per week from morning through afternoon.
For women who need a stable living environment during or after treatment, Monima partners with Ohana Recovery Residences. Ohana offers women-only sober living with 24-hour staffing, meals, medication support for those who need it, and transportation to and from treatment. Ohana is located just a short drive from Monima Wellness and is designed to complement healing through our outpatient programming.
At Monima Wellness Center, our alumni program fosters a supportive community for women beyond treatment, emphasizing connection, wellness, and ongoing personal growth. Through monthly wellness events, weekly virtual meetings, and access to our exclusive Monima app, alumni remain connected to a network that offers encouragement, accountability, and guidance for thriving after cocaine addiction recovery.
At Monima Wellness, our in-house psychiatrist takes the time to get to know each patient, so your treatment fits your unique situation. Medication decisions happen in-house and always include you, keeping your care coordinated and all under one roof.
When appropriate, your treatment plan may include medications such as buprenorphine (Suboxone), Sublocade, or naltrexone (Vivitrol). These work alongside evidence-based therapy, somatic practices, weekly acupuncture, and neuropsychological testing, so medication is one part of a holistic plan.
We do not offer on-site detox. Those requiring medical detox prior to beginning treatment are referred to a trusted community partner first. Our admissions team can help you take that first step if you’re not sure where to start. Call us at 858-500-1542 to get started.

We want cost to be as clear as possible while you focus on your recovery. If you have questions about coverage, we are glad to talk through them together.

Medication-assisted treatment combines FDA-approved medication with counseling and behavioral therapy to treat substance use disorders. Common medications include buprenorphine, naltrexone, and Sublocade.
MAT is one of the most well-supported approaches for treating opioid and alcohol use disorder, and research consistently links it with reduced relapse and better long-term outcomes. Success looks different for each person, and results depend on the medication, therapy, and individual circumstances.
At Monima Wellness, MAT is offered within our PHP and IOP programs rather than billed as a separate service, so it is included as part of your overall treatment. Our admissions team can verify your benefits and explain any expected costs before you begin.
