About WTCR Garland
WTCR Garland is an outpatient Opioid Treatment Program (OTP) clinic located at 2848 West Kingsley Road, Suite B, in Garland, Texas. As part of WTCR — one of the longest-serving medication-assisted treatment networks in Texas — the Garland clinic delivers daily-dosing methadone and buprenorphine services for Dallas County adults whose lives have been disrupted by opioid dependence. WTCR is accredited by the Joint Commission, the national gold standard for OTP quality and safety.
The clinical model at WTCR is built around a clear principle: addiction is a chronic but treatable medical illness, and the most effective treatment combines medication with counseling. Patients arriving with Opioid Use Disorder begin opiate agonist therapy with methadone or buprenorphine, which stabilizes the neurobiological adaptations that drive craving and withdrawal. Once medically stabilized, patients work with counselors on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, individual and group counseling, and the practical work of restructuring their daily lives away from drug-seeking behavior.
WTCR recognizes that OUD often requires long-term — sometimes lifelong — treatment, and the team partners with patients to design care plans accordingly. For those who reach a point where medically supervised tapering is appropriate, the clinic facilitates withdrawal from agonist therapy with the same medical caution it brings to induction. Pregnant women with OUD can receive medication-assisted treatment with the appropriate clinical oversight, since methadone is an evidence-based standard of care in pregnancy.
WTCR Garland accepts Medicaid, Medicare, a wide range of private insurance plans, state insurance, and self-pay, with financial-assistance options available for qualifying patients. The clinic operates as a full outpatient program — patients live at home, attend the clinic for daily dosing and counseling appointments, and stay connected to their families and jobs throughout treatment.
