About Sage Neuroscience Center
Sage Neuroscience Center is an integrated behavioral health and addiction treatment center in Albuquerque, New Mexico, providing outpatient substance use disorder services alongside psychiatric care and therapy under one roof. Located on Jefferson Street NE, the clinic offers medically assisted treatment (MAT), outpatient detox, a structured Substance Use Disorder Intensive Outpatient Program (SUD IOP) and relapse prevention support for adults. Sage emphasizes individualized, non-judgmental care using evidence based approaches to address addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders.
Addiction Treatment Programs at Sage Neuroscience Center
Treatment often begins with outpatient addiction medicine services, including medically assisted treatment and outpatient detox that typically involves 4 to 8 hours of on-site monitoring with medication support and follow-up care. Clients can then transition into the Substance Use Disorder Intensive Outpatient Program, which meets 3 days per week for 3 hours per day, with flexible morning, afternoon and evening scheduling, including a telehealth evening option.
The SUD IOP combines individual and group therapy, drug screenings, relapse prevention education and skills training grounded in CBT, DBT, the Matrix Model and mindfulness techniques. Individuals explore the chemistry of addiction, trigger identification, boundaries and lifestyle management in a collaborative care environment. Sage also offers a 12-week in-person Relapse Prevention Group to reinforce coping skills and long-term recovery for those stepping down from higher levels of care.
