Madison West Comprehensive Treatment Center Accredited

Madison West Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) is a respected provider of outpatient treatment for adults age 18 and older who are struggling with addictions to opioids like prescription painkillers and heroin. Conveniently located in Madison, Wisconsin, Madison West CTC offers medication-assisted treatment, which is an evidence-based approach to opioid addiction treatment that is recommended by organizations like the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) combines talk therapy with the use of FDA-approved prescription medications. These medications have shown to ease the distressing symptoms of opioid withdrawal while also helping to prevent ongoing cravings. Some methadone clinics are only capable of offering prescriptions for methadone, but at Madison West CTC, we can prescribe naltrexone, buprenorphine, and Suboxone in addition to methadone. The specific medication that a person is prescribed is based on the results of an assessment that they complete prior to beginning treatment. Our team not only provides the prescription for the medication, but they also monitor its effectiveness so that changes can be made if necessary to ensure that the patient is fully benefitting from treatment. Patients at Madison West CTC can also participate in individual and group counseling sessions. Individual sessions offer time for patients to meet one-on-one with a qualified staff member where they can discuss things that may be positively or negatively impacting their recovery process. Additionally, they can use this time to learn and practice various coping skills that can help them avoid potential triggers and make the lifestyle changes necessary for preventing future relapse. In group sessions, patients have a chance to meet with other individuals who are also in recovery. Here, they can give and receive support and encouragement to and from others who may be facing similar challenges. The staff at Madison West CTC strongly believes in the effectiveness of medication-assisted treatment and strives to provide comprehensive care that can help people put an end to their drug use and be successful in their recovery.
