At Taunton Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC), we offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for adults age 18 and older who are struggling with opioid addictions. MAT is a comprehensive approach to opioid addiction treatment that uses prescription medication and counseling to help people achieve and maintain recovery. The medications offered in MAT can help alleviate the challenging symptoms and cravings that may occur when someone stops opioid use. Often, these withdrawal symptoms are a formidable barrier to recovery. By receiving medication through a MAT program, people can navigate the withdrawal process with greater mental and physical well-being and participate in counseling with more ease. Counseling also forms a key component of MAT, offering patients the chance to work through the emotional, social, and behavioral aspects of opioid addiction recovery. In particular, counseling can provide you with the opportunity to make positive life changes and develop healthier coping skills that may help you overcome future challenges on your recovery journey.
