Groups Recover Together: Accessible Opioid Addiction Treatment
Groups Recover Together offers comprehensive and accessible treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD), focusing on combining medication-assisted treatment (MAT) with weekly group therapy sessions. Recognizing the challenges associated with traditional recovery models, Groups is committed to providing care that fits into members’ lives, promoting sustained recovery through a supportive community model.
Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) and Suboxone
A core component of the program is MAT, primarily utilizing Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone). This evidence-based approach is crucial for managing cravings and withdrawal symptoms, providing members with the stability needed to focus on their recovery journey. When starting the program, a physician conducts an assessment to determine the appropriate medication dosage, ensuring a personalized medical approach to detoxification and stabilization.
The Power of Group Therapy
Recovery is often most successful when shared. Groups Recover Together emphasizes weekly group therapy meetings led by licensed counselors and medical professionals. These sessions serve as a vital support network, connecting individuals with shared experiences in recovery. Members gain accountability, learn coping mechanisms, and build lasting relationships with peers in a confidential and non-judgmental setting. The group setting ensures that recovery is a collaborative, community-driven effort rather than a solitary struggle.
Service Accessibility and Locations
Groups Recover Together operates numerous offices across the U.S. for in-person treatment, including locations in Tennessee. Additionally, for greater accessibility, virtual care services are provided in many states, expanding access to those who may not live near a physical office. This hybrid model ensures flexibility, allowing individuals to receive care that accommodates their work and family responsibilities. Potential members are encouraged to call the care team to find the nearest location or inquire about virtual care options.
Getting Started with Groups
The process begins with a one-on-one consultation with a licensed substance use disorder counselor who reviews the individual’s clinical history to ensure the program is the right fit. Following this, a physician assesses medical concerns and prescribes the appropriate medication. The final step is integrating into a weekly group meeting, beginning the journey of support and accountability.
