Medication-Assisted Treatment

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) can be an important part of recovery for some people. It’s a clinical tool that works in tandem with counseling to alleviate the toughest withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings. It can be an absolute game-changer, for recovery from opioid and alcohol addiction.

As part of our comprehensive treatment programs at Juniper Grove, MAT is offered alongside detox, residential care, and aftercare support. It’s one of many ways we help our clients reclaim their lives with dignity and hope.

What happens in a medication-assisted treatment program?

Medication-assisted treatment combines FDA-approved medications with counseling and behavioral therapies to treat substance use disorders. At Juniper Grove Recovery, medication-assisted treatment medications may include:

  • Suboxone
  • Subutex
  • Vivitrol

These non-addictive, proven medications reduce the urge for substances that your body is trying to withdraw from. They also help prevent relapse and stabilize brain chemistry during early recovery so that you're more mentally and emotionally available to participate in the therapeutic process.

MAT is especially effective for those struggling with opioid addiction, but in some cases, it can also support recovery from alcohol use disorder.

How is MAT incorporated into treatment?

At Juniper Grove Recovery, MAT isn’t a standalone service—it’s part of our larger, integrated approach to treatment. All of our clients also participate in therapy. Keeping individual needs in mind, a comprehensive treatment approach will include variations of:

  • Individual counseling
  • Group therapy
  • Trauma-informed care
  • Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
  • Life skills training
  • Relapse prevention planning

Our clinical team will use their decades-long experience to tailor your MAT program, monitoring the schedule of medication as well as its efficacy, making adjustments as needed.
