The program goes beyond medication, recognizing that lasting recovery requires significant behavioral and emotional change. MedMark provides a range of essential counseling and support services to complement MAT. These services help patients understand the root causes of their substance use, develop healthy coping mechanisms for stressors, and rebuild relationships.

  • Individual Counseling: Personalized therapy to address unique challenges and develop a tailored relapse-prevention plan.
  • Group Counseling: Peer support and shared experience to foster connection and accountability.
