About BHG Washington DC Treatment Center

BHG Treatment Center in Southeast Washington helps adults across the greater DC metro area.

The center combines medically supervised methadone treatment with counseling, case management and peer recovery for people who have opioid use disorder. Treatment also helps with co occurring mental health conditions under the same roof.

Their harm reduction approach pairs daily medication with practical support so you stay connected to work, family and community without compromising on your recovery.

Methadone Treatment

As a client you'll have methadone based treatment here, with medically supervised dosing. You’ll get your medication in the early morning, with a clinic that’s built around consistent care.

I like that they have a medical director leading a team of physicians, nurses, counselors and peer specialists. The team will review your recovery goals and you’ll also have a medical evaluation and get an individualized treatment plan.

I think it’s especially helpful that you can even start your medication on the same day as your intake if you need to.

They have ongoing counseling, lab monitoring and drug screening to keep you accountable and help your progress. They offer a welcoming atmosphere where you can feel comfortable sharing and working toward lasting recovery.

Peer Support and Whole Person Care

Along with dosing I noticed BHG offers case management, telehealth and health assessments. They can help with co occurring mental health concerns, chronic conditions, pregnancy, HIV/AIDS and hepatitis C too.

Since they have lived experience, the peer recovery specialists here provide encouragement, accountability and practical insights.

Men's Rehab

A men’s rehab in Washington, DC, addresses mental and emotional concerns that are common to men, which might include sharing emotions, vulnerability, anger management, and trauma. Addressing these unique issues in a community with other men can help participants heal and develop healthy coping mechanisms so they don’t need to turn to substance use.

Opioid Treatment

Opioid addiction is both physical and psychological. Opioid rehab in Washington, DC, helps participants overcome the physical aspects of withdrawal and cravings and address the mental and emotional reasons they began to misuse opioids to begin with.

Women's Rehab

Women experience life differently than men, so having a specific women’s rehab can be helpful.

Levels of Care

Detox & MAT

Detox treatment in Washington DC is designed to rid the client’s body of alcohol and/or drugs in a safe and supportive environment. Medical detox involves intensive clinical supervision in either an inpatient or outpatient setting and may include the prescribing of FDA-approved medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and prevent potentially serious complications. Social detox is a process of managing substance withdrawal without medical intervention and typically includes mental health support, rest, and therapeutic nutrition and hydration.

Outpatient Rehab

Outpatient rehabs in Washington DC enable clients to receive addiction recovery services while continuing to live at home. They are ideal for clients who are medically stable, including those stepping down from inpatient care and/or those with mild to moderate addiction disorder not requiring hospitalization. Outpatient rehabs offer a wide range of treatment intensities determined by clients’ needs, including high-intensity partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs (PHP/IOP) and moderate-intensity general outpatient programs (OP).

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

Dual diagnosis care in Washington DC is a specialized, multi-pronged approach to addiction recovery tailored to the unique care needs of persons with co-occurring addiction and mental illness. Dual diagnosis care is predicated on the assumption that lasting recovery can only be achieved if the underlying mental health conditions that contribute to or exacerbate the addiction are also addressed. The dual diagnosis care model typically integrates extensive psychotherapy, recovery education, and pharmacotherapy, if appropriate.
