Medication-Assisted Treatment

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) combines FDA-approved medications with counseling and support to help you manage cravings and withdrawal safely. It doesn’t replace your strength or your recovery work — it simply gives your body the stability it needs so you can focus on healing and rebuilding your life. Many people use MAT as a tool to stay grounded, stay safe, and move forward at their own pace.
