About New River Comprehensive Treatment Center

New River Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) is one of the area’s leading providers of outpatient medication-assisted treatment. Located in Galax, VA, we serve individuals aged 18 and older who are battling addictions to heroin, prescription painkillers, and other opioids.

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is a type of opioid addiction treatment that combines the use of prescription medication with counseling services. The medications used in MAT can help alleviate symptoms of withdrawal while also preventing the ongoing cravings for opioids that often lead to relapse. At New River CTC, we can provide prescriptions for methadone, Suboxone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone, which are approved by the FDA for use in opioid addiction treatment programs when administered and monitored by trained professionals.

Recognizing that getting treatment for an opioid addiction is a highly personal experience, we strive to provide care in a confidential manner that helps patients feel comfortable during the treatment process. For this reason, we offer individual medication rooms where patients can receive their medication in a private setting.

Additionally, our team offers individual and group counseling services. In these sessions, patients can gain support as they discuss the challenges they’re facing. Here, they can identify potential triggers, talk through past experiences, and learn and practice coping skills that can help prevent future relapse.

The team at New River CTC is dedicated to helping people successfully put an end to their use of opioids and feel confident in their ability to remain in recovery.
