OUR SERVICES

SUBSTANCE USE TREATMENT

Individual and Group COUNSELING

We are highly committed to engage and retain individuals in treatment while using field-recognized and research-supported practices in the treatment of substance use and mental health issues as chronic conditions. Services are based on a collaborative planning process rooted in mutual respect. Persons served make progress in their own recovery in an environment that provides safety and comfort as well as expertise in the change process. Individual and group counseling sessions are tailored to each individual’s care plan. Different hours are available to provide flexibility and improve access.

MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT

For many individuals, Medication Assisted Treatment is incorporated into their recovery plan to help reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms, supporting a cessation of use. At the right dose and with psychosocial intervention such as counseling and peer services, medication assisted treatment provides a whole-person approach to the treatment of substance use disorders.

VICTA offers all FDA-approved medications for the treatment of Opioid Use Disorder. These medications can be prescribed for a period of years to help stabilize and support the person making changes in other life areas. Opioid Treatment Providers (OTPs) like VICTA are able to dispense these medications on-site, and are provided based on the individual treatment plan subject to state and federal regulations

Buprenorphine is the first medication to treat opioid dependency that is permitted to be prescribed or dispensed in physician offices, significantly increasing treatment access. Buprenorphine is prescribed as part of a comprehensive treatment plan that includes counseling and participation in social support programs. VICTA offers the full range of buprenorphine products, including tablets, films, and long-acting injections.
Naltrexone is a medication used in medication-assisted treatment to treat both opioid and alcohol use disorders. The injectable extended-release form of the drug (Vivitrol) is administered via intramuscular injection once a month.

INTENSIVE OUTPATIENT PROGRAM (IOP)

The intensive outpatient program consists of a scheduled series of group sessions appropriate to the person-centered plans of the persons served. VICTA offers daytime and evening IOP services to accommodate a range of schedules.
The IOP includes nine (9) hours per week of group counseling and one (1) hour per week of individual counseling. Participants have access to the full scope of services offered by VICTA, such as psychiatric evaluation and MAT. The length of stay is based on an individual’s treatment plan and progress, and averages 4-6 weeks.
The program may function as a step-down program from partial hospitalization, detoxification/withdrawal support, or residential services. It is also appropriate for persons served engaged in services who have struggled with recurrence of use or an increase in symptoms and who could benefit from more intensive services.

INTEGRATED DUAL DIAGNOSIS TREATMENT

VICTA INTEGRATED DUAL DIAGNOSIS TREATMENT
Dual diagnosis recovery blends the most successful aspects of mental health care and substance use treatment. Effective treatment for dual diagnosis involves considering both addiction and mental illness as part of a continuum. For people who have been living with mood swings, periods of hopelessness and extreme sadness, suicidal thoughts, flashbacks to traumatic events, or other disturbing symptoms, putting a name to your condition may give you a sense of hope. After all, if your condition can be named, it can be treated.
Getting your life back on track requires help, hope, and trust. We understand how difficult it is to extend your trust to others, especially those that do not understand addiction. Our treatment team members are knowledgeable and have extensive experience in treating individuals with co-occurring disorders.
Our outpatient mental health program offers an array of behavioral health services. Persons served can participate in individual, group, or family psychotherapy. Many of our clinical providers are trained in both substance use and mental health treatment, providing a truly integrated service experience.
For those with psychiatric conditions that might benefit from medication, our prescribers can evaluate and treat them with the appropriate pharmacology agent(s).

ambulatory CARE SERVICES

Successful recovery from an addiction requires a comprehensive approach to physical, social, psychological, and spiritual wellbeing. The mind-body connection needs to be repaired for a person to achieve maximum health.
Finding medical care that is non-judgmental and non- discriminatory towards individuals with substance use disorder can be a challenge and a barrier to a healthy lifestyle and road to full recovery. Past negative experiences perpetuate harm and can lead to avoidance of both routine and urgent medical services.
This often leads to people not treating significant physical health conditions or avoiding certain aspects of their history to medical providers. In turn, these individuals may continue experiencing poor physical health, mixing medication that creates dangerous interactions, and not achieving optimal recovery.
Because we have consistently heard these issues, we wanted to respond to the needs by offering medical care on-site at VICTA. Ambulatory care services include general episodic care, infectious disease screening and treatment or referral, wound care, contraceptive care, and more. In August 2023, VICTA added gynecological services to meet the needs of individuals who may have avoided routine care due to trauma history or previously identified barriers.
