About New Choices Recovery Center
New Choices Recovery Center’s Main Office is their administrative headquarters. It’s in urban Schenectady, New York. This location also provides clinical services, an impaired driver program, and full day rehabilitation services. Their clinical services include medication assisted treatment, which they provide in combination with outpatient addiction or dual diagnosis counseling. As part of their mission statement, they offer gender-affirming identity support and advocacy.
Their opioid treatment program (OPT) offers a well-integrated program that looks at clients as entire people, not just their addictions. The program includes thorough intake assessments that look at substance use and mental health concerns. These assessments inform the team as to the best course of action for your needs. If necessary, they can provide medical and clinical support to help you stabilize.
Their MAT services make use of methadone, which is an FDA-approved medication that reduces withdrawal and cravings in those facing opioid use disorder. If your assessment shows that you’re medically appropriate for this program, you’ll receive carefully dosed measures of methadone on a regular basis to help you stay comfortable through withdrawal and avoid relapse.
MAT is most effective when combined with addiction counseling. New Choices Recovery Center offers individual counseling, group counseling, and family services, and facilitates peer support groups that create safe and encouraging spaces for you to grow and heal in.
Their experienced counseling team uses a variety of evidence-based methods, including motivational interviewing, harm reduction methods, and Recovery-Oriented Systems of Care (ROSC). ROSC essentially creates a network of support around you, and develops the strength you can find in your family, your community, and yourself. The aim is to put your experiences and current situation at the center of your treatment approach.
Levels of Care
-
Outpatient
In outpatient therapy, you’ll attend therapy sessions several times each week while living at home. This is ideal if you have a strong support system and a lower risk of relapse. Outpatient treatment offers flexibility to maintain work, school or family obligations.
-
Dual Diagnosis
Dual diagnosis programs address substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions simultaneously. This integrated approach to care improves the likelihood of long term recovery and stability by addressing the root causes of addiction.
-
Sober Living
Sober living homes provide a supportive and substance free environment for you to live in as you overcome your addiction. Residents must follow house rules and support each other's recovery journeys. Sober living fosters accountability and stability during this critical phase of recovery.
