New River Comprehensive Treatment Center

Adults in the Galax, Virginia, area who have been struggling with opioid addiction can receive personalized outpatient care at New River Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC). New River CTC provides medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to adults age 18 and older of all genders.

MAT is an evidence-based, research-supported method of opioid addiction treatment that includes prescription medication and counseling.

When MAT first began to be used in methadone clinics in the United States, methadone was the only medication that was approved for use. Through the decades, other medications have proved to be safe and effective for both short- and long-term use when taken as directed by a qualified healthcare professional.

Today, adults who receive care at our outpatient opioid addiction treatment center in Galax, Virginia, may receive one of four medications: methadone, buprenorphine, naltrexone, or Suboxone®.

At New River CTC in Galax, Virginia, we understand that each person who seeks treatment for opioid addiction at a methadone clinic is walking a unique path, and we’re committed to providing every patient with the individualized treatment that will best meet their specific needs.

When you choose our opioid addiction treatment center in Galax, Virginia, one of your first activities will be to complete a thorough assessment. This evaluation helps our team develop your personalized plan. It also allows our medical staff to determine which medication is right for you. We will discuss all elements of your plan with you, and we’ll be happy to answer all your questions.

The treatment professionals at our center in Galax, Virginia, will take the time to get to know you, to learn the specific ways you’ve been impacted by opioid addiction, and to discover what a successful life in recovery looks like to you. The more we understand about your needs and goals, the better prepared we’ll be to provide the individualized services that can put you on the path to long-term success.

The medications you can receive at a methadone clinic or other MAT provider can play a vital role in your efforts to recover from opioid addiction. But medication alone can’t prepare you to make the lifestyle changes that will empower you to achieve successful long-term recovery from opioid addiction.

To help you address the social, behavioral, and emotional aspects of opioid addiction and recovery, our center in Galax, Virginia, provides individual and group counseling.

Both types of counseling offer safe and supportive environments where you can gain valuable information about opioid addiction and recovery, develop the skills and strategies that will help you throughout your journey, and learn how to access the various sources of support that can serve you well in the months and years to come.
