Executive/Program Director has thirty years experience in the

LTS, Inc. was founded and operates based on the
principles that he has acquired while working at various
treatment centers. We have come together to formalize our
services, and to create a mode of treatment that will enhance
the lives of those whom we serve.
LTS, Inc. wishes to serve both
the patient who is suffering from addiction and the community by
providing a safe, clean, esthetically pleasing environment, and
effective treatment modalities that meet the needs of our
patients at whatever stage of addiction or recovery that they
are in when they come to us. We have taken a holistic
approach to treatment by addressing the physical and
psychological sequelae of addiction. By adopting a harm
reduction model to treatment, providing adequate dosing levels
of Methadone, effective counseling and referrals, and
emphasizing sound nutritional habits, we will be able to offer
our patients a well-rounded program aimed at gaining control of
their addiction. To the degree that we are successful, we
will also help to mitigate the burden on the criminal justice
system, and the medical and social service systems in the area.
LTS, Inc. is committed to the
ideal of complete recovery, but we understand the realities of
addiction, and our staff will always respect the patient, and
provide treatment that is appropriate for the individual's stage
of recovery or addiction.
