About MPI Treatment Services
The Merritt Peralta Institute (MPI) is a substance use and behavioral health treatment center that’s part of the Alta Bates Summit Medical Center owned by Sutter Health. MPI is located on Summit Street in Oakland, California, right off the 24 and the 580. They offer treatment for chemical dependency and co-occurring disorders. This includes inpatient and outpatient programs as well as inpatient detoxification for residents in the greater Bay Area.
They accept insurance from many providers, including TRICARE, Cigna, and Magellan Health Services Medicare Advantage.
Before detox, you’ll be given a thorough assessment. They’ll help you decide on the appropriate level of care based on your situation. They’ll work to identify any co-occurring disorders such as anxiety, depression, or bipolar disorder so you can get the appropriate mental health treatment. If you need detox, then you’ll go to the acute inpatient medical detox program.
In detox, you’ll have around the clock monitoring from a trained, certified staff. During detox, you’ll be ridding your body of the toxic substances that it has become dependent on. Most people have some uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms while going through the detox process. You’ll be medically supported through your detox, and if you’re experiencing uncomfortable symptoms, you’ll be given medications to ease any discomfort.
After detox, most people stay in the residential program for up to a month, but some people move to an outpatient program. The facility offers both. During detox and the inpatient rehab program, you’ll have individual and group counseling.
Some therapies used are mindfulness therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and recreational therapy. CBT helps restore your thinking patterns to a better balance, replacing old negative thoughts with new, more positive thoughts. Recreation therapy includes art and pet therapy, drama therapy, and other therapies that help you learn to socialize, build your confidence, and reduce your mental health symptoms. Outdoor excursions to Lake Merritt and the nearby San Francisco Bay might also be doable to get you physically and mentally refreshed.
The hospital offers many programs to support you on your road to recovery. Detox is a good first step in the healing process, but to ensure continued sobriety, it’s advised to continue in treatment. You’ll leave the detox program with lots of resources to guide you.

Inpatient and residential programs provide round-the-clock medical and emotional support as you live at the treatment facility. This level of care may be recommended if you have severe addictions or mental health conditions since it removes outside distractions and allows you to focus solely on therapy. |
In outpatient therapy, you’ll attend therapy sessions several times each week while living at home. This is ideal if you have a strong support system and a lower risk of relapse. Outpatient treatment offers flexibility to maintain work, school or family obligations. |
Dual diagnosis programs address substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions simultaneously. This integrated approach to care improves the likelihood of long term recovery and stability by addressing the root causes of addiction. |
