Addictions We Treat at Our MA Outpatient Rehab

Outpatient Rehab for the Full Range of Substance Use Disorders

Our intensive outpatient program treats adults across Massachusetts struggling with alcohol, opioid, prescription, stimulant, and polysubstance use — including co-occurring mental health conditions.

Alcohol Use Disorder

Outpatient alcohol rehab for daily drinking, binge drinking, and alcohol dependence — including MAT options where appropriate.

Opioid Use Disorder

Outpatient drug rehab for heroin, fentanyl, and opioid dependence — with FDA-approved medication-assisted treatment (MAT) options where clinically appropriate.

Prescription Drug Misuse

Benzodiazepines, stimulants, sleep medications, and other prescription drug dependence — outpatient rehab with medical oversight.

Stimulant Use Disorder

Cocaine and stimulant dependence — outpatient treatment with evidence-based behavioral therapies.

Polysubstance Use

Multiple substances at once is the norm, not the exception. Our outpatient rehab treats the full picture, not just the primary substance.

Dual Diagnosis (Co-Occurring)

Substance use plus depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar, or other mental health conditions — integrated outpatient treatment, one clinical team.

Outpatient Levels of Care

PHP & IOP — The Right Intensity for Your Recovery

Your clinical assessment determines whether partial hospitalization (PHP) or intensive outpatient (IOP) fits best. Many clients step down from PHP to IOP as they stabilize — same clinical team, less intensity over time.

PHP

Partial Hospitalization Program

The most intensive outpatient option. Hospital-level structure without overnight stays — ideal when withdrawal symptoms have stabilized but daily structure is critical.

5 days / week · 6 hours per day

Outpatient

Standard Outpatient Care

Weekly individual therapy and medication management. The right fit for ongoing maintenance or step-down from a higher level of care.

1 visit / week · scheduled around your day

Flexible Treatment Formats

In-Person, Virtual, or a Mix of Both

If a drive to one of our locations three days a week doesn't fit your life, you have options.

Same clinical team, same curriculum, more flexibility.

In-Person

Full IOP or PHP at our Braintree, Quincy, Sharon, or Bedford locations. Group dynamics in the room often accelerate connection and accountability.

Best for: clients within reasonable driving distance who want maximum group cohesion

Fully Virtual

Frequently Asked Questions

What People Want to Know About Outpatient Rehab

What's the difference between IOP and PHP?

Both are outpatient rehab programs — the difference is intensity. PHP (Partial Hospitalization Program) is the most intensive: typically 5 days per week, 6 hours per day. It's designed for clients who need hospital-level structure but don't require an inpatient stay.

IOP (Intensive Outpatient Program) is less time-intensive: typically 3 days per week, 3 hours per session — making it a better fit if you're working, parenting, or in school. The clinical content is similar; the difference is the dose.

Your clinical assessment will recommend which level fits your situation. Many clients start in PHP and step down to IOP as they stabilize.

Is outpatient rehab as effective as inpatient?

For many people with substance use disorders, outpatient rehab is as effective as inpatient — and sometimes more so, because you're practicing recovery skills in the real environment you'll live in long-term.

Inpatient is typically recommended for clients who need medical detox, have severe withdrawal risk, or have a home environment that makes recovery impossible. Outpatient works well for clients who are medically stable, motivated to engage, and have basic support at home. Your clinical assessment will tell you what's right.

Will my insurance cover outpatient rehab?

Most major insurance plans cover outpatient addiction treatment, including PHP and IOP, at the same level as other medical care thanks to mental health parity laws. We're in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, Beacon, AllWays, Unicare, MVP, Priority Health, CDPHP, and other major Massachusetts carriers.

Call us or submit a verification form — we'll confirm your specific coverage and out-of-pocket costs, often within an hour.

Do you offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT)?

Yes. We offer FDA-approved medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid and alcohol use disorders as part of an integrated treatment plan, with ongoing medical oversight from our prescribers. Specific medication options are determined clinically based on your history and goals.

MAT isn't required for everyone — we tailor your treatment plan to your clinical needs. If MAT isn't right for you, there are evidence-based alternatives.

Can I keep working or going to school during outpatient rehab?

Yes — that's the core reason outpatient rehab exists. Our IOP groups run day and evening so you can choose a schedule that fits around work, school, and family commitments. Many employers and schools accommodate treatment schedules under FMLA or similar policies.

PHP is more time-intensive (5 days × 6 hours), so most clients in PHP take FMLA-style leave or reduced hours. Your admissions counselor can help you understand what protections apply.

Do I need to detox before starting outpatient rehab?

It depends on what you're using and how much. Alcohol and benzodiazepine withdrawal can be medically dangerous and may require supervised detox before outpatient treatment begins. Opioid and stimulant withdrawal is uncomfortable but rarely medically dangerous — many clients can transition straight from active use into outpatient rehab with MAT support.

Your clinical assessment will determine the right starting point. If detox is needed, we can help coordinate it before your outpatient program begins.

How quickly can I start?

For most outpatient rehab clients, between calling us and starting your first session is 24-48 hours. Same-day clinical assessments are routine when scheduled in advance. The exact timeline depends on insurance verification and assessment scheduling.

Where are your locations?

We operate outpatient rehab facilities in Braintree, Quincy, Sharon, and Bedford, Massachusetts — accessible from Boston, the South Shore, MetroWest, and surrounding areas. Call us to discuss which location is most convenient and whether IOP or PHP is the right starting point.
