Personalized, accessible treatment
Treatment plans begin with an assessment so the care team can understand a client’s substance use history, health needs, recovery goals, and life circumstances. From there, the team creates a treatment plan, which includes medication, counseling, and support services tailored to the patient’s needs. As a fully outpatient program, BHG offers flexible scheduling, walk-in appointments, and same-day admissions whenever possible, making it easier for patients to receive care while continuing to work, attend school, or care for loved ones.
FDA-approved medications
The program offers FDA-approved medications to help manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms when appropriate. BHG’s providers will work with each client to determine which FDA-approved medication is the right fit based on medical history, treatment goals, and individual needs. Throughout treatment, BHG’s care team will continue to monitor treatment progress and make adjustments to help clients stay on track.
Behavioral counseling
Through individual and group counseling, BHG's licensed counselors help patients strengthen coping skills, navigate life's challenges, address co-occurring mental health concerns, and develop healthy strategies that support lasting recovery.
Case management and recovery support
BHG's care team helps connect clients with community resources and practical support for challenges such as transportation, insurance, and access to additional healthcare services. By addressing the barriers that can affect recovery, BHG helps clients build a stronger foundation for long-term wellness.
