About AHN Dept. of Psychiatry

AHN Dept. of Psychiatry is a behavioral health and addiction treatment provider within Allegheny Health Network, serving Pittsburgh, PA. The department offers outpatient psychiatry, therapy and medication assisted treatment for substance use disorders, including opioid, alcohol and drug addiction, as well as co-occurring mental health conditions. Their team of psychiatrists, psychologists, counselors and social workers (I've learned) provides integrated care that addresses both addiction and underlying mental health concerns.

Outpatient Substance Use Disorder Treatment

AHN Dept. of Psychiatry specializes in treating substance use disorders through outpatient and intensive outpatient programs. The department offers medication assisted treatment (MAT) using buprenorphine and naltrexone for opioid use disorder and other substance related concerns, combined with psychiatric evaluation and ongoing behavioral health support.

Treatment with AHN I've found includes evidence based counseling, individual therapy, group therapy and family involvement to support recovery. Sessions focus on managing cravings, building coping skills and addressing the medical and psychological factors that contribute to addiction, with the flexibility of in-person or virtual care options.

Dual Diagnosis and Mental Health Care

The department treats co-occurring mental health conditions alongside substance use disorders, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. This dual-diagnosis approach ensures that both behavioral health and addiction concerns are addressed together through coordinated psychiatric and therapeutic care.

Access and Getting Started

AHN Dept. of Psychiatry is located at 4 Allegheny Square East in Pittsburgh and offers both in-person and virtual visits for behavioral health services. The department serves children, teens, adults and older adults across a range of mental health and addiction concerns.
