Substance Use Addiction Disorder Treatment in Glen Burnie, MD

Understanding Substance Use Disorder (SUD)

Substance use disorder (SUD) is a medical condition that affects the brain and behavior, leading to an inability to control the use of drugs or alcohol. Recovery is possible with the right treatment and support. At MedHaven Health in Glen Burnie, we provide evidence‑based substance use disorder treatment designed to meet each patient’s individual needs.

Why Treatment Matters

Untreated SUD can impact physical health, mental wellness, family relationships, and career stability. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), patients who receive structured treatment combined with counseling are more likely to achieve long‑term recovery.

Our Approach to Substance Use Disorder Treatment

We focus on comprehensive, patient‑centered care. Our services include:

  • Medication‑Assisted Treatment (MAT): FDA‑approved medications such as Suboxone, Vivitrol, or naltrexone help reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms.

  • Counseling & Therapy: One‑on‑one counseling, cognitive‑behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing support lasting recovery.

  • Family Therapy: Families learn how to support loved ones, rebuild trust, and improve communication.

  • Dual Diagnosis Care: For patients with co‑occurring conditions such as depression or anxiety.

  • Adventure Therapy: Activities like hiking, group challenges, and mindfulness walks to rebuild confidence and resilience.

Stages of Treatment

  1. Assessment & Diagnosis
    A full evaluation of medical history, substance use patterns, and mental health.

  2. Personalized Treatment Planning
    Plans may include MAT, counseling, and support groups.

  3. Active Treatment
    Regular therapy sessions, safe medication management, and support from our clinical team.

  4. Ongoing Support & Relapse Prevention
    Education, follow‑up appointments, and family engagement to help maintain recovery.

Medication‑Assisted Treatment (MAT)

MAT is one of the most effective treatments for substance use disorder. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), MAT can significantly reduce relapse rates.

  • Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone): Helps manage opioid cravings.

  • Vivitrol (naltrexone injection): Blocks the effects of alcohol and opioids.

  • Oral Naltrexone: Non‑addictive option for alcohol use disorder.

Note: MAT may cause mild side effects such as nausea, dizziness, or constipation. Our providers monitor patients closely to minimize risks.

Adventure Therapy for SUD Treatment

Adventure therapy uses structured outdoor and group activities to support recovery. Patients may participate in:

  • Nature walks or light hiking

  • Team‑based exercises

  • Mindfulness and stress‑reduction practices

These approaches build self‑confidence, reduce stress, and encourage positive lifestyle changes.

Safety & Compliance

Your health and safety are our top priority.

  • All treatments follow SAMHSA guidelines.

  • Licensed professionals provide supervision.

  • Sterile supplies and emergency protocols are always in place.

  • HIPAA compliance ensures your privacy and confidentiality.

Insurance & Payment Options

We accept:

  • Medicare & Medicaid

  • Major private insurance plans

  • Flexible self‑pay options

Our team can help verify your coverage before starting treatment.
