Appleton Comprehensive Treatment Center Accredited

Appleton Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC), conveniently located in Appleton, Wisconsin, is a trusted provider of outpatient opioid addiction treatment. We offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for adults age 18 and older who are struggling to overcome addictions to opioids. Medication-assisted treatment is an evidence-based type of opioid addiction treatment that utilizes both counseling services and prescription medication to provide a comprehensive approach to care. MAT is backed by years of research and is recommended by respected organizations like the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). The medications used in MAT have all been approved by the FDA for use in opioid treatment programs when administered and monitored by qualified professionals. At Albany CTC, patients can receive prescriptions for methadone, naltrexone, Suboxone, and buprenorphine. Patients do not take all of these medications, but instead are prescribed the specific medication that will best meet their unique needs. The decision on which medication may be most effective is made after our team reviews the results of an assessment that patients take before starting treatment. Counseling services can also be an integral part of opioid addiction treatment as they offer patients an opportunity to focus on the aspects of addiction that fall outside of the physical components. Social interactions and the environments in which people live are two things that can greatly impact a person’s ability to stop using opioids. By participating in counseling sessions, patients can learn ways to navigate their environments and interactions so that they can begin to make lifestyle changes that can help prevent relapse and keep them on the road to recovery.
