About Wilkes-Barre Comprehensive Treatment Center

Located in Wilkes-Barre Township, Pennsylvania, Wilkes-Barre Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) is a leading provider of outpatient opioid addiction treatment for adults age 18 and older. For people who are looking for a comprehensive approach to receiving care for opioid addiction, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) may be the most beneficial option. MAT combines the use of prescription medication with counseling services. The medications used in MAT help ease the symptoms of withdrawal, while the counseling services help patients gain support as they walk through their recovery journeys. All medications used as part of MAT are FDA-approved, and individual and group counseling sessions offer an evidence-based form of treatment that addresses the psychological components of addiction. At our addiction treatment center, we can prescribe methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone. The medication a person receives is based on their needs and medical history.
