The Behavioral Health Group (BHG) provides substance abuse treatment in Washington, DC. It’s not too far from the Frederick Douglass National Historic Site. Guests have a team of local medical professionals working together to provide a comprehensive treatment plan for their recovery.
Flexible Treatment in the Nation’s Capital
BHG provides outpatient services that allow flexibility so guests can continue working or attending school while getting treatment. They also welcome walk-in clients, so you aren’t waiting for the help you need. The goal is to allow you to remain a productive community member even during treatment.
Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is available using FDA-approved medicines, like Suboxone or methadone. These medications reduce cravings and lessen withdrawal symptoms.
Addressing the Underlying Causes
Along with medications for comfort, they include counseling for co-occurring conditions that frequently accompany addiction, like anxiety and depression. Their counselors work with you to find the root causes of your addiction so you can move past them and look forward to a life of sobriety. You’ll also receive coping skills and techniques to avoid relapse and substance use triggers.
They work with many medical insurance plans, including Optum, Humana, and Aetna. They also accept Medicare, Medicaid, and Medicare Advantage plans and have self-pay options.
