About Mat Su Health Services – Wasilla
Mat-Su Health Services, Inc. – Wasilla is a community healthcare provider based in the beautiful city of Wasilla, Alaska. They provide a wide range of primary healthcare services, as well as mental and behavioral health services like counseling and medication assisted treatment. Their behavioral health program works on an outpatient basis and treats children, teens and adults.
They accept most insurances, including Medicare and Medicaid. They can also offer discounted fees based on your family size and income.
They provide thorough psychiatric evaluations before creating an individualized treatment plan for you. Their treatment method takes a full person approach and looks at your mental health, physical health and substance use. Their counseling services can include individual, family and group therapy.
Their MAT program helps you detox and remain sober without any uncomfortable or painful cravings and withdrawal symptoms. They carefully administer buprenorphine or naloxone to remove undesired symptoms and reduce the effectiveness of illicit substances.
This decreases the desire to use substances and helps you remain sober. For some patients, they combine this medication with the NSS-2 BRIDGE device. This is an FDA approved device that sits behind your ear and looks like a big hearing aid. It uses electrical pulses to stimulate certain nerves in your cranium. This reduces the heavy withdrawal symptoms that typically come when healing from opioid addiction.
Another thing they offer is psychosocial rehabilitative services. This program is for children or adults who aren’t able to function normally because of a chronic mental health condition or a big emotional event. Mat-Su Health Services helps to stabilize your condition and shows you how to develop life skills to look after yourself.
