WHAT IS ADDICTION?
Addiction is a chronic medical condition that is treatable with personalized and comprehensive care.
It occurs as a result of complex interactions among brain circuits, genetics, the environment and an individual’s life experiences.
COMMON SYMPTOMS
- Continued addictive behaviors despite a negative impact on relationships, finances or health.
- The inability to minimize or stop addiction.
- No longer doing activities that someone once enjoyed.
- Continued substance use mostly to avoid feeling sick.
SUCCESSFUL RECOVERY
Recovery is the process of individuals improving their physical, emotional and mental health allowing them to live self-managed and fulfilling lives.
Certain substance use disorders are best managed with evidence-based, FDA-approved medications that minimize overdose risk and harm, manage cravings and support long-term recovery.
The most successful approach involves a long-term and customized plan that addresses all phases of recovery including relapse.
While recovery sometimes involves inpatient hospitalization, often the most effective and affordable treatment begins in the doctor’s office.

Treatment plans are tailored to meet individual needs and goals and may include:
Ongoing addiction treatment:
Addiction medicine experts use integrated treatment that may include medications, counseling and support groups to help patients start the process of recovery.
Withdrawal management:
Quitting substances “cold turkey” can be life-threatening and should be done with medical supervision. Also referred to as “detoxification,” this may be done in an outpatient setting, or may require a short inpatient hospitalization.
Co-occurring mental health concerns:
Mental health conditions commonly occur with addiction. As part of the treatment plan, patients are evaluated and treated for other mental health concerns.
Counseling and behavioral therapy:
Our expert therapists help patients learn healthy coping mechanisms, improve interpersonal and family relationships, deal with past trauma and develop healthy behaviors. Therapists incorporate elements of cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational enhancement therapy as well as acceptance and commitment therapy to improve functioning and quality of life.
Support Groups:
Patient support groups provide a safe and supportive environment to connect with others during recovery. Through group discussion and skills-based training, participants create a personalized relapse prevention plan for a successful recovery.
