About Fenway Health Ansin Building
Fenway Health Ansin Building is a multidisciplinary outpatient community health center in Boston’s West Fens neighborhood, offering behavioral health and addiction services on its seventh floor.
The program provides addiction counseling and support groups, medication assisted treatment and problem gambling services, with providers including addiction specialists and licensed alcohol and drug counselors.
Fenway Health centers LGBTQIA+ people and BIPOC individuals, those living with or affected by HIV and other medically underserved communities with affirming and trauma informed care.
Integrated Medication Assisted Treatment
Fenway’s core strength is medication assisted treatment for substance use disorder, embedded directly within primary care for whole person support.
Patients benefit from rapid enrollment, medications including Suboxone, Sublocade and Vivitrol, and an on site pharmacy all under one roof.
This integrated model lets you receive medical care, addiction treatment and prescriptions in a single building, reducing barriers to consistent recovery.
Care is delivered through a trauma informed lens, addressing underlying issues alongside the physical aspects of substance use in a supportive and judgment free environment.
LGBTQIA+ Affirming Care
Fenway’s addiction counseling and support groups are designed with LGBTQIA+ patients in mind, welcoming those who may have faced stigma in traditional treatment settings.
The Behavioral Health Department also offers specialized problem gambling services through providers certified by the Massachusetts Council on Compulsive Gambling, plus short term and longer term psychotherapy groups.
Access and Next Steps
Fenway Health Ansin Building serves the greater Boston area from 1340 Boylston Street, offering both in person and HIPAA secure telehealth appointments with convenient transit and parking nearby.
The center accepts most major health plans including MassHealth, and no one is denied access due to inability to pay, with sliding fee discounts and financial assistance available.
