Appleton Comprehensive Treatment Center View Specialties



Appleton Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) is a premier outpatient addiction treatment facility that provides support for overcoming opioid addiction. We serve adults age 18 and older in Appleton, Wisconsin. Treatment at Appleton CTC involves medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and both individual and group therapies.
 
Appleton CTC delivers comprehensive care through leading outpatient services. These services offer clients effective support on a flexible, convenient schedule. The medications used in MAT allow clients to safely drive and participate in family life, work, or school. Our comprehensive treatment center stands apart from traditional methadone clinics in two key ways: medication variety and counseling services.
 
Methadone is the oldest and most commonly used medication for treating opioid addiction. Clinical studies have shown that other medications can be equally effective at providing relief. Appleton CTC offers four different medication options for clients: methadone, Suboxone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone. Finding the right medication to meet an individual’s needs can mean the difference between relapse and recovery. Our physicians consider medical history and substance use history to identify the best prescription for each client. Clients undergoing MAT can expect to stop using opioids on the first day of treatment. MAT is clinically proven to improve recovery outcomes by reducing withdrawal symptoms and cravings.
 
The other key element that sets us apart is our counseling program. Traditional methadone clinics don’t typically offer counseling services. This amounts to treating the symptoms of addiction without addressing the root cause. Effective addiction treatment should provide a client with the framework for achieving healing and wellness. Appleton CTC counseling programs address a range of concerns that impact recovery outcomes, including mental and emotional health, coping skills, communication skills, family dynamics, social environment, and employment. Clients receive individual attention in one-on-one sessions and benefit from community and peer support in group counseling.
 
Treatment at Appleton CTC begins with a detailed evaluation. We consider many factors and encourage client input while creating an individualized treatment plan. We understand that every client has a different history and unique recovery goals. We ask clients to participate in tracking progress and to give feedback about any negative effects they may experience. This allows us to understand a client’s progress and adjust treatment as needed to provide optimal support.
 
Appleton CTC understands the unique challenges clients face when overcoming opioid addiction. Our treatment program is designed to provide both short- and long-term support so that clients are empowered to confidently seek healing and commit to lasting recovery.
