Chase Brexton Health Care – Mt. Vernon Center

Chase Brexton Health Care Mt. Vernon Center, in Baltimore, Maryland, offers medical, mental health, and addiction recovery services for youth and adults. They specialize in meeting the unique care needs of LGBTQ+ persons. They provide a complete continuum of outpatient care. Medication assisted treatment and programs for persons with co-occurring addiction and mental illness are available.

A specialist will conduct a comprehensive evaluation and assessment to help determine your care needs. You and your care team will create a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific recovery goals.

I like that they place a high priority on peer coaching and support. This allows you to build a strong network of friends and loved ones who can guide you through your recovery journey. Peer coaches can offer a level of insight and empathy that is unmatched because they too have walked the path of recovery and understand its challenges.

Group meetings provide an opportunity to share your experiences, talk about your struggles, and give and receive support. You’ll also participate in recovery education to help you develop the life skills you need to cope with triggers, manage stress, and deal with past traumas.

If you’re in alcohol or opioid recovery, you may enroll in their MAT program. They offer a range of treatment options, including buprenorphine.

Another thing that stands out to me is their phased treatment approach that allows you to step down to lower intensity care as you progress in your recovery. Treatment typically begins with an intensive outpatient program (IOP) and progresses to general outpatient support over a period of weeks or months depending on your needs.
