Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT)
Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) is an evidence-based approach that combines FDA-approved medications with therapy to support recovery from substance use disorders, especially opioid addiction. MAT helps manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms, allowing individuals to focus on long-term recovery.
What to Expect:
- Medication Support: Medications like Suboxone or methadone are prescribed to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms, allowing clients to manage their addiction more effectively.
- Integrated Therapy: MAT is complemented by therapy sessions that focus on the psychological aspects of addiction, helping clients develop strategies for coping with triggers and maintaining sobriety.
- Comprehensive Care: Clients receive support from a team of medical and therapeutic professionals, ensuring that both their physical and emotional health are addressed throughout the recovery process.
- Ongoing Monitoring: Regular check-ins with medical staff ensure that medications are effective and adjusted as necessary to maximize the client’s recovery progress.
