Understanding Addiction

Addiction is considered a disease, not a character flaw. Overcoming any addiction can be very difficult, and rarely can it be achieved by ‘cold turkey’ methods, no matter how strong the desire is to quit.

At Journeys Mental Health, we use medication-assisted treatment (MAT) in combination with counseling to deliver a whole-person-centered approach.

Our team provides FDA-approved medications alongside compassionate talk therapy. Family members are welcome to attend sessions to understand addiction better and offer support.
