MAT in Brief

The Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) Program at Guidance Recovery NoHo is designed for people recovering from alcohol or opioid addiction. It brings evidence-based therapy and FDA-approved medication together to treat the body and the mind at once. Medication eases withdrawal, lowers cravings and helps bring brain chemistry back into balance, so the work of recovery becomes more manageable and more likely to last.

Ways MAT Strengthens Recovery

MAT gives people medical help with withdrawal so they can turn their attention to staying sober over the long haul, which in turn leads to better treatment results.

Fewer cravings and milder withdrawal: medication lessens both physical discomfort and emotional distress.
Steadier footing against relapse: medication helps balance the brain, which supports recovery that holds over time.
More energy for therapy: without severe withdrawal, clients can take a full part in counseling.
Care that covers everything: MAT works best when combined with counseling and behavioral therapy.

Your MAT Experience, Step by Step

Our MAT program follows a clear structure so that care stays safe, effective and specific to you.

An in-depth evaluation of your physical and mental health, past medical care and how you have used substances.
A plan made for you, combining the medication and therapy that best fit your goals.
Medication management under supervision, so every prescription is used safely and as intended.
Counseling and therapy built in, using Motivational Interviewing (MI), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to change patterns tied to addiction.
Aftercare and relapse prevention that keep guidance in place well after treatment ends.
