About Beacon Center Utica

Beacon Center’s Utica site in New York provides opioid treatment and outpatient therapy to local residents in the county seat of Oneida County. They were established in 1990 and are fully certified by New York State, committed to providing individualized treatment plans to those experiencing mental health conditions and substance use disorders.

Medication Assisted Treatment Reduces Withdrawal Symptoms

The outpatient substance use disorder program begins with a thorough history of your mental, emotional, and psychosocial health. They provide medication assisted treatment (MAT) and medication management overseen by a clinic physician. They work with you to ensure safe use of medications that can reduce withdrawal symptoms and prevent cravings.

Alongside medication assisted treatment, they also provide counseling to help you to make behavioral changes without experiencing the physical consequences of major withdrawal symptoms. They use FDA-approved buprenorphine, Vivitrol, and naltrexone to treat alcohol and opioid use disorders.

Substance Use Disorders Affect Families

They recognize that substance abuse also affects the family and investigate other drug use within your family and relationships or the impact that drug use has had on familial relationships. The program addresses the needs of adolescents, young adults, and gender-specific men’s and women’s programming.

They provide treatment within an intensive outpatient program (IOP) and offer an alternative to inpatient treatment. Relapse prevention is essential to long-term recovery, and they offer a chronic relapse program to support your sustainable sobriety.

They work with most major health insurance programs in the area and will verify your coverage before beginning treatment, so you aren’t surprised by an unexpected medical bill.
