About Richmond Southside Treatment Center Metro Treatment of Virginia LP
Richmond Southside Treatment Center — formally Metro Treatment of Virginia LP — is a CARF-accredited substance use treatment facility located at 9609 Jefferson Davis Highway in Richmond, Virginia, within Chesterfield County. Operating under the New Season network, it holds an Opioid Treatment Program (OTP) certification and serves the greater Richmond area for people seeking structured, clinically supervised withdrawal and recovery support. The center is distinct in the region for combining OTP-certified opioid treatment with outpatient programming under one roof, backed by a nationally recognized accreditation standard.
The facility offers two levels of care: Medical Detox and an Outpatient Program. The Medical Detox level is the clinical entry point for individuals who require supervised withdrawal management before transitioning to ongoing outpatient treatment. The Outpatient Program provides continued structure for those stepping down from detox or entering treatment without requiring inpatient placement. Both levels are available within a facility that carries OTP certification, meaning the clinical framework is built specifically around opioid treatment protocols.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a confirmed therapeutic method used at Richmond Southside Treatment Center, giving the clinical approach a structured, skills-focused orientation. The center also addresses co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis alongside trauma and PTSD, recognizing that substance use rarely exists in isolation. English-language services are available, and the facility operates Monday through Friday from 5 AM to 2 PM, with Saturday hours from 6 to 9 AM, reflecting a schedule common to OTP clinics that prioritize early morning access.
Richmond Southside Treatment Center serves a notably broad population: veterans, pregnant women, young adults ages 18 to 25, seniors and older adults, men, women, individuals needing HIV/AIDS support, and those referred through the court system. Payment options include Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, and self-pay or cash, reducing financial barriers for individuals at different stages of readiness. For Richmond-area residents weighing medically supervised detox and outpatient treatment options, this center’s OTP certification, CARF accreditation, and wide population coverage set it apart from general outpatient providers in the region.
