Duncansville Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) is a leading outpatient opioid addiction treatment center. Duncansville CTC provides medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for adults age 18 and older in Duncansville, Pennsylvania. MAT combines the use of prescription medications with counseling to help clients overcome addiction. Medication-assisted treatment is an evidence-based approach to treating opioid addiction. MAT is recommended as a highly effective treatment option by national organizations like the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). All medications used in MAT are FDA-approved and only available through prescription.
 
Duncansville CTC offers methadone, buprenorphine, and Suboxone. The specific medication a client is prescribed depends on several factors, including medical history, substance use history, and physician input. Clients are closely supervised to ensure that the prescribed medication is working correctly. MAT is a powerful tool that works to fight opioid addiction on the physical level. The medications used in MAT help alleviate the overwhelming effects of detox from opioids. MAT medications also reduce cravings and block the effects of opioid drugs should relapse occur.
 
Duncansville Comprehensive Treatment Center differs from a standard methadone clinic because we provide comprehensive treatment. Even short-term use of opioids can result in severe physical and psychological addiction. As MAT works to counter and manage physical dependence and cravings, our team of behavioral health specialists helps clients find healing on a mental, emotional, and spiritual level as well. Treatment at Duncansville CTC begins with an extensive evaluation and the creation of an individualized treatment plan. Clients of our outpatient addiction treatment center work with counselors, physicians, and other behavioral health professionals to treat opioid addiction.
 
Clients are assigned a counselor and participate in both individual and group therapy sessions. Individual therapy ensures that a client receives personalized care and attention as they work toward building a strong recovery from opioid use disorder. Group therapy sessions are designed to create an environment of support and understanding. Clients share progress and receive feedback from a group of peers who are also working to maintain recovery from opioid addiction.
 
Duncansville Comprehensive Treatment Center knows how destructive opioid addiction can be. When education, coping skills, and group support are provided as part of MAT, clients can better understand themselves and how to combat addictive behaviors. Our premier addiction treatment center supports clients on all levels as they build the foundation needed to create a life free of opioid addiction.
