Located in Springfield, Massachusetts, Springfield Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) offers medication-assisted treatment (MAT) services for adults age 18 and older who are battling opioid addictions. Using this evidence-based approach, our team can help patients achieve long-term recovery by addressing the mental and physical challenges of addiction. MAT is a time-tested practice that has been extensively researched and acknowledged as an effective form of treatment by highly respected organizations, like the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). MAT incorporates the use of prescription medication to lessen the uncomfortable symptoms of withdrawal and counseling sessions to address psychological factors that are tied to substance use. We believe in the importance of addressing both aspects of addiction during treatment to lay a solid foundation for recovery.
