MAT and Therapy Services in Columbus
The medication assisted treatment here is offered using methadone or buprenorphine. Methadone is the gold standard of MAT, and buprenorphine provides similar benefits with a lower chance of misuse.
Both medications help you manage cravings and minimize withdrawal symptoms so you can focus on what really matters — healing your mind and emotions and addressing the root causes of substance use. The therapy provided at MedMark includes individual and group counseling.
Counseling Services for Healing and Connection
Individual therapy gives you a private and confidential environment to share your most challenging experiences and get help reprocessing difficult situations and memories. Evidence based approaches can help you challenge unhelpful mindsets, create new habits and learn new ways to tolerate discomfort without turning to drugs or alcohol.
Group counseling presents you and your peers with specific educational information and allows each person to talk about their experiences and get support from others who truly understand. In group therapy you learn you’re not alone or flawed in some way — there are many others who need help as well, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
Between the two you are able to lay a solid foundation for long term recovery, with or without medication support.
