The Cognitive Connection: Integrated Care for Addiction and Behavioral Health

Located in Hickory, NC, The Cognitive Connection offers comprehensive, integrated healthcare services with a strong focus on behavioral health and substance use disorder treatment. This facility is dedicated to empowering clients of all ages to achieve independence and self-reliance through tailored treatment plans.

Holistic and Integrated Treatment Approach

The Cognitive Connection operates on an integrated care model, meaning they address both primary care needs and behavioral health concerns simultaneously. This ensures that clients receive thorough treatment for complex conditions, including primary medical issues and psychiatric services, alongside their recovery journey. The core of their substance use disorder treatment involves evidence-based behavioral interventions designed by counseling specialists.

Substance Use and Addiction Services

The facility provides a range of addiction treatments, including programs specifically targeting opioid use disorders (such as heroin, fentanyl, and prescription painkillers). Treatment modalities incorporate cognitive skills training and relationship-building sessions aimed at improving self-worth and fostering long-term sobriety. Support is delivered through various levels of care to suit individual needs, focusing primarily on outpatient services.

Key Program Components:

  • Individual Counseling
  • Group Counseling
  • Family Counseling
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), including Suboxone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone

For those requiring less intensive care, The Cognitive Connection offers Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), which provide structured therapy and support with fewer weekly treatment hours than traditional inpatient settings. They also offer specific programs for adolescents (ages 12-17), addressing issues like underage drinking violations and offering parenting connection resources.
