About Esper Treatment Center
Esper Treatment Center specializes in outpatient opioid addiction treatment in a commercial district in Erie, Pennsylvania. Their mission as an organization is to provide individuals struggling with an opioid use disorder achieve recovery and improve their standard of living overall. What instantly stood out to me is that they are open seven days per week.
They use a pharmacological therapeutic approach to their treatment, which differs between people. The staff consists of doctors, specialists and counselors. I do like that if you need an additional ancillary program, they’re able to provide you with a referral to the appropriate agency. The issues that they provide referrals for are mental health, relationships, employment and abuse such as physical and sexual mistreatment.
Your treatment is going to involve individual and group therapy, as well as other supportive services. Their clinical team will provide you with resources, education and support. Your responsibility is going to be your health and wellness.
Methadone therapy is provided, if it is deemed as an appropriate form of treatment for you. Methadone serves a stable blockade so that you can drive, work, and participate in activities. While this medication will not allow you to overdose on opiates, it does not prevent overdosing on other forms of drugs. You will not feel a euphoric rush on this medication. Once you’re on the correct dosage, you shouldn’t experience withdrawal symptoms.
Buprenorphine is another form of FDA approved medication. Your brain is going to think that it is still receiving opioids. You won't have withdrawal symptoms, and your cravings will be reduced. For any reason, if you are still experiencing cravings their physician will adjust the medication. You will also receive help to find other solutions to reduce your cravings.
Along with counseling and medications, you can also exercise and unwind offsite. There aren’t any real amenities closeby, but Erie has a skate park that isn’t too far away. There’s also Hillside Park and Presque Isle Bay if you want to clear your mind in the great outdoors.
