Claymont Comprehensive Treatment Center View Specialties



Claymont Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) serves adults age 18 and older who are seeking help for addictions to opioids such as fentanyl, oxycodone, heroin, morphine, and prescription painkillers. We are a leading outpatient addiction treatment center in Claymont, Delaware, offering medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for adults of all genders.
 
MAT includes medications such as methadone and evidence-based therapies to help alleviate painful withdrawal symptoms. It is recommended by leading health institutes such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). MAT is a scientifically proven approach to recovery that is shown to provide better outcomes. While traditional methadone clinics offer only methadone to help control symptoms, our CTC is authorized to prescribe buprenorphine and methadone.
 
Our caring team works closely with every patient to identify the most beneficial medication and dosage level that will help them stop using opioids safely and without discomfort. When patients are not distracted by the sometimes severe symptoms of withdrawal, they are better able to focus on other aspects of addiction treatment. MAT also helps save lives by preventing fatal relapse. A complete medical and mental health assessment gives our medical team the information they need to develop an individualized treatment plan for each patient.
 
During the assessment, you will be asked about past drug use, health history, and any mental health needs. A thorough evaluation ensures that each patient receives all the care they need for success in their recovery journey. As a comprehensive treatment center, we also offer therapies to address your mental and behavioral health needs. In both individual and group therapy sessions, our experienced counselors will work with you to help foster the new skills needed for long-term success. Patients learn to cope with stress in healthier ways and to communicate their needs effectively. Individual therapy provides an opportunity for patients to resolve past traumas or discuss personal matters in a confidential environment.
 
In our group therapy sessions, patients can practice the tools and skills they have learned with one another. Groups are facilitated by qualified mental health professionals to ensure positive therapeutic interactions. Recovery is an individual process. No two people at Claymont CTC have the exact same experience. That’s why we consider it crucial to provide each patient with the individual treatment and attention they need. Success at Claymont CTC helps build a foundation for lifelong recovery from opioid addiction."
