New River Comprehensive Treatment Center Accredited

New River Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) in Galax, Virginia, offers leading outpatient treatment for adults who are struggling with opioid addictions. We provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT), which is a type of opioid addiction treatment that combines the use of prescription medication with talk therapy. Due to its successful treatment outcomes, MAT is highly recommended by respected organizations like the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). Adults who receive MAT at our treatment center may receive a prescription for methadone, buprenorphine, Suboxone, or naltrexone. These FDA-approved medications have shown to help ease the symptoms of opioid withdrawal and reduce cravings. The specific medication that a person is prescribed is determined based on the results of an assessment they will receive prior to beginning treatment. These prescription medications can significantly help people who are battling addictions to opioids, but there is also great benefit in having access to counseling sessions because they allow patients to focus on the behavioral and psychological aspects of addiction, which can encourage sustained recovery. Our treatment centers offers both individual therapy and group therapy. Individual therapy involves one-on-one meetings with a qualified professional where patients can receive ongoing support and guidance. In group therapy, patients meet with other individuals who may be facing similar challenges, helping them develop a sense of community. In both types of counseling sessions, patients also have the opportunity to process through their experiences and learn coping strategies that can help prevent future relapse. At New River CTC, we understand that every recovery journey is different, and we are committed to helping our patients build a foundation for a prosperous future, free from addiction.
