About Wausau Comprehensive Treatment Center – Wausau
The Comprehensive Treatment Centers (CTC) Opioid Use Disorder Program in Wausau, Wisconsin provides treatment for much more than opioids. They have treatment programs for opioids and opiates, fentanyl and other substances. They also have medication assisted treatment (MAT) options available with Suboxone, methadone, buprenorphine, or Vivitrol to help individuals deal with the physical discomfort and symptoms of withdrawal while they gain the mental skills to overcome their addiction.
There is a program specifically for older adults who may have started with a prescription to address pain and ended up becoming addicted. More than 100,000 emergency room visits for individuals over 65 in the past decade were the result of opioid and pain medication addiction. Comprehensive Treatment Centers offers a safe, non judgmental, comprehensive treatment program that integrates therapy and MAT to give each client the best chance of success in their journey to recovery.
Wausau Comprehensive Treatment Center has outpatient treatment programs facilitated by trained medical and mental health professionals including psychiatrists, doctors, psychiatric and medical nursing staff and mental health counselors.
Treatment starts with a referral which will lead to assessments and evaluations to ensure that the right care action plan is created for the person’s situation. Adults over 18 may be referred by social agencies, hospitals, medical professionals or a self referral.
Therapy helps individuals identify their reasons for addiction and helps them reach their treatment goals for the future. Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) along with other evidence-based, trauma-based therapy models are offered to help with the emotional and mental struggles of addiction. When these counseling and therapy options are used in conjunction with MAT to help manage the physical symptoms of addiction individuals can feel healthier and more hopeful about a sober future.
State, Federal, and private insurance are all accepted at CTC but it is important to check with your personal health insurance provider to ensure you know exactly what coverage you have and if you will be responsible for any of the costs out-of-pocket. There are self pay options and financial help available for any costs you may be responsible for.
