About Connecticut Addiction Medicine Hartford
Located on Main Street in Hartford, Connecticut, CT Addiction Medicine is a source of support and healing for adults across Hartford County dealing with opioid addiction and chronic pain. It’s right next to the Pratt Street Historic District, less than a minute’s walk from the Old State House and Bushnell Park and west of the Riverside Park & Mortensen Riverfront Plaza.

How CT Addiction Medicine Stands Out
New patients are typically seen within 24 hours of reaching out. Their outpatient services are well-optimized for flexibility with telehealth options.
They accept Medicaid, Medicare and ConnectiCare alongside various commercial insurance plans. This combination of features helps explain the overwhelmingly positive feedback from past clients. One client noted, “ This place saved my life. The staff is AMAZING, they always treated me with respect and they made me feel like family.“
Whole Person Care For Long-Term Success
CT Addiction Medicine takes a whole-person approach that includes medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and psychiatric care. You may begin with outpatient detox to help you manage withdrawal symptoms safely and comfortably under expert guidance.
MAT continues for long-term abstinence. You’ll be prescribed Suboxone, Vivitrol or Sublocade to ease withdrawal. You’ll attend counseling, psychoeducation classes, and relapse prevention programming to learn to identify relapse warning signs. Participation in 12-step meetings of AA and NA is encouraged to develop strong sober support networks.
Psychiatric care including evaluation and medication management to address co-occurring mental health conditions. Random urine toxicology testing is employed to monitor progress.
Help With Managing Chronic Pain
CT Addiction Medicine uses Suboxone to manage chronic pain with a focus on musculoskeletal conditions. They offer referrals to hospital pain management centers for interventions and advanced care to ensure lasting recovery success.
