About University of Mississippi Medical Center
The University of Mississippi Medical Center is Mississippi's only academic medical center, offering addiction psychiatry services on its main Jackson campus for adults age 18 and older.
Through its behavioral health system, UMMC provides outpatient addiction care, medication assisted treatment, and coordinated psychiatric and medical services for individuals struggling with alcohol or drug use.
UMMC emphasizes research informed, individualized care that connects patients with the full resources of a leading academic health system.
Academic Addiction Psychiatry
UMMC's Addictions Clinic delivers enhanced outpatient addiction services including assessment, treatment and referral for adults with substance use concerns.
As part of the state's only academic medical center, the program offers access to specialized addiction psychiatrists working alongside psychology, social work and medical specialty teams.
Treatment incorporates evidence based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy and contingency management, motivational enhancement therapy and medication assisted treatment.
When higher acuity care is needed, patients can be stabilized through admission to UMMC's Inpatient Acute Psychiatric Unit, ensuring a continuum of support tailored to each person's clinical needs.
Integrated Behavioral Health
UMMC treats co-occurring mental health and behavioral conditions either in clinic or through referral, with seamless coordination across psychiatry, psychotherapy and medication management.
The Center for Innovation and Discovery in Addictions further links clinical care with translational addiction research and statewide service expansion.
