Brown University Health Recovery Center

This means you’ll have timely and seamless access to integrated mental health and primary care services within the network as you move through recovery. The Center provides medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to help with treating substance use disorder.

Medication-Supported Opioid Recovery

The medication assisted treatment service combines counseling alongside FDA-approved meds to reduce relapse risk and support long-term abstinence. Brown University Health Recovery Center adopts a tailored approach that begins with a thorough intake assessment involving psychosocial & psychiatric assessment, Hepatitis C screening and a urine test.

You’ll work with your care team to create a personalized care plan tailored to your recovery goals and needs following the assessment. Part of this plan will include a prescription of Suboxone to help ease withdrawal symptoms and cravings. You’ll then attend therapy sessions to build robust coping strategies for relapse prevention as you tackle the underlying emotional and psychological issues fueling your opioid.

Evidence Based Therapeutic Approaches in Counseling

Their therapeutic support incorporates various proven methods, from cognitive and dialectical behavioral techniques to motivational interviewing and mindfulness-based interventions. I particularly like that you can attend sessions virtually via telehealth, as this offers greater flexibility and convenience.

Your tailored care may also include psychiatric support, ranging from medication management to psychotherapy, to address underlying mental health issues. The wraparound services include peer support and case management.

Additionally, case managers will assist you in handling psychosocial needs from housing and job placement to transportation and education. This fosters stability as you move forward and helps you build confidence in your recovery journey
