Conveniently located in Jacksonville, Florida, North Florida Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) is a leading provider of medication-assisted treatment for adults who are struggling with addictions to heroin, morphine, and other opioids. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is a type of care that combines counseling with the use of prescription medications. Decades of research has demonstrated the effectiveness of MAT, making it one of the most recommended forms of opioid addiction treatment. The professionals at our CTC can prescribe methadone and buprenorphine, both of which ease the symptoms of withdrawal, ultimately helping people refrain from returning to their use of opioids. In addition to administering and monitoring medication, our staff offers individual and group therapy. During individual therapy, patients meet one-on-one with a counselor, while group therapy gives them a space to meet with other individuals who are also struggling with opioid addictions. The opportunities patients have during these sessions to process their experiences and learn from others can be immensely beneficial as they navigate the road to recovery.
