About Treatment Associates – Montpelier
Treatment Associates is a dual-diagnosis behavioral health provider for adults, located in Montpelier, Vermont. They also provide valuable community resources, such as referrals, case management, and family support services.
Addiction-related services offered at Treatment Associates include mental health assessment and counseling, outpatient addiction treatment, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), telemedicine, mental health treatment, and continuing care.
As part of the intake process, clients receive a mental health assessment to evaluate symptoms of substance use disorders and any co-occurring mental health conditions. This information helps clinicians to create an individualized treatment plan, which may include individual, group, and/or family counseling, medication-assisted treatment, and recovery support.
MAT involves the use of FDA-approved medications, such as Suboxone, with behavioral counseling and support groups for the treatment of opioid and alcohol use disorders. Participants meet with a medical provider for an assessment and treatment plan, either in-person or via telemedicine. Treatment usually involves a daily commitment to group treatment sessions and as the client stabilizes, group attendance may become less frequent.
Aftercare supports individuals following the successful completion of an addiction treatment program. This may include follow up medication appointments, attendance at group sessions periodically, and regular check-ins with a drug and alcohol counselor.
