Near Covington Plaza, a well-known neighborhood shopping center, the center offers
outpatient care in a prime location that supports consistent access close to home. As one of 29 Indiana locations, this center delivers medication-assisted treatment (
MAT) for opioid addiction using suboxone or buprenorphine, with in-person care available Monday through Wednesday from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM, and Thursday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Patients receive evidence-based care, including
cognitive behavioral therapy (
CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and the matrix model. These approaches address trauma, anger management, and relapse prevention to promote emotional stability and long-term recovery. Services also include substance use education, discharge planning, aftercare coordination, and sign language support for the deaf and hard of hearing.
Aside from offering in-person care, the facility uses a mobile app to deliver remote treatment for opioid use disorder. Through scheduled video visits,
group therapy sessions, and secure communication, the app provides a structured virtual format that supports ongoing medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and peer connection while maintaining consistent clinical outcomes.
Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Groups Recover Together Fort Wayne provide structured pathways to evidence-based care.
