Unity Hospital of Rochester – Outpatient Addiction Treatment Services
The Outpatient Clinic at Unity Hospital of Rochester, located at 1565 Long Pond Road, offers comprehensive and compassionate care for individuals struggling with substance use disorders. Recognizing that the journey toward recovery is deeply personal, this program is designed to provide flexible yet structured support, allowing patients to maintain their daily responsibilities while receiving essential therapeutic interventions. The clinic utilizes evidence-based practices to address both the physical aspects of addiction and the underlying mental and emotional factors contributing to substance misuse.
A Holistic Approach to Recovery
Our treatment philosophy is centered on the principle of holistic recovery, which means treating the whole person – mind, body, and spirit – not just the addiction itself. We believe lasting sobriety requires addressing co-occurring mental health conditions, trauma, and social challenges. Patients benefit from a multidisciplinary team of addiction specialists, including licensed therapists, counselors, and medical professionals who collaborate to create an individualized treatment plan for optimal outcomes.
Core Treatment Components
The outpatient program integrates several essential therapeutic modalities to equip patients with the tools needed for long-term recovery. These components are delivered through individual, group, and family settings to ensure robust support at every stage.
- Individual Counseling: One-on-one sessions provide a confidential space for exploring personal triggers, developing coping strategies, and addressing past issues.
- Group Therapy: Peer-led and clinician-facilitated groups foster a sense of community, allowing patients to share experiences and gain diverse perspectives on managing cravings and preventing relapse.
- Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT): When medically appropriate, MAT is offered to manage withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings, improving the likelihood of successful treatment completion.
- Relapse Prevention Planning: Focuses on identifying high-risk situations and creating detailed, actionable plans to navigate challenges post-treatment.
Flexibility and Accessibility
One of the primary benefits of the Unity Hospital Outpatient Clinic is the high degree of flexibility. Treatment schedules are structured to accommodate work, school, and family life, making it an accessible option for those who cannot commit to an intensive inpatient setting. The commitment to local, accessible care ensures that residents of Rochester and the surrounding areas have a reliable pathway to recovery without significant disruption to their lives. Our team is dedicated to supporting each individual’s continuous progress toward a healthier, substance-free future.
