Our Story
Making a Difference in Addiction Recovery
We offer telehealth addiction recovery that lets you manage your own schedule, providing support at times that best suit your life, including some evening appointments for added flexibility.
Embracing Telemedicine for Transformation
Our uniqueness lies in embracing telemedicine and coordinating and implementing care entirely online in Texas.
During the COVID lockdown, we discovered the power of telemedicine. It turned out to be a game-changer, increasing patient retention and supporting long-term recovery.
Why Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT)?
Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) is developed using scientifically tested practices—meaning studies have proven it works. Our approach enhances long-term recovery by improving program retention. With the alarming statistics of opioid use, we recognized the need for an effective and scientifically supported approach to recovery.
Evidence-Based Medications
Our treatment includes evidence-based medications designed to address opioid use disorder, alcohol use disorder, methamphetamine use disorder, and tobacco use disorder. Naloxone (Narcan) acts as a lifesaving antagonist, while Buprenorphine helps reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms.
