Dover Comprehensive Treatment Center

Dover Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC), located in Dover, Delaware, provides medication-assisted treatment (MAT) on an outpatient basis for adults age 18 and older who are struggling with opioid addiction.

MAT is an approach to opioid addiction treatment that combines prescription medication and counseling. Methadone clinics throughout the country have used this research-backed method for years due to its track record as a safe and effective way to treat opioid use disorder.

What sets our clinic apart from traditional methadone clinics is that we offer more than one type of medication. Depending on a patient’s individual recovery journey, our Dover center may offer methadone or Suboxone® as part of their opioid addiction treatment plan. Once we gather information that helps us understand your specific needs, our staff will prescribe one of these medications as part of your personalized care plan.

Medications like methadone address the physical aspects of opioid addiction, but that’s merely one part of the recovery process. We approach each person’s treatment holistically by also focusing on the social, emotional, and behavioral aspects of their struggles.

Along with the use of medication, patients may also take part in individual and group counseling during their time at our treatment center. In addition to these options, we offer standard relapse prevention and substance abuse education sessions.

All these therapeutic offerings are designed to help you process the root of your struggles and uncover any obstacles that may be standing between you and lasting sobriety. By working with a team of professionals and hearing from others who are on the road to recovery, patients may be able to make significant lifestyle changes that can lead to long-term recovery.

The decision to pursue opioid addiction treatment isn’t always an easy one to make. At our Dover center, we strive to make the admissions process as straightforward as possible so that you can get the help you need in a timely manner.

At our Dover facility, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to treatment. Each patient receives a personalized plan that considers them as a whole rather than as a set of symptoms.

Prior to admission, we’ll guide you through a series of basic tests that will allow our team to better understand your current symptoms, your medical history, and any previous opioid addiction treatment you have received. The information gathered will help us formulate your personalized care plan.

Once you begin programming at our methadone clinic, we’ll ask you to play an active role in your recovery. By fully engaging in the individual and group therapy sessions you participate in, you will have a better chance of understanding your diagnosis and building skills that can serve you well on the path to better health.
