About West End Clinic

West End Clinic is a Massachusetts General Hospital program in Boston for adults experiencing substance abuse and mental health conditions.

The team uses proven approaches like psychodynamic therapy and mindfulness-based approaches. Embedded within the hospital's Department of Psychiatry the clinic integrates medical, psychiatric and family care to support lasting recovery.

Medication-Assisted Recovery

I noticed that the clinic offers comprehensive outpatient evaluation, individualized treatment planning, psychiatric assessment and medication management for substance use disorders.

Medication options include naltrexone, acamprosate, disulfiram, topiramate, Vivitrol injections and Suboxone, alongside a dedicated Vivitrol clinic and structured Suboxone pathway.

Patients can access a structured Intensive Outpatient Program, including a Suboxone-specific track that combines medication induction with frequent treatment contact and ongoing weekly Suboxone Recovery Group participation.

Care addresses both addiction and underlying psychiatric needs through a coordinated, multidisciplinary model.

Family and Peer Support Programming

Beyond individual counseling I am impressed that West End Clinic offers a broad menu of group therapy, including relapse prevention, DBT for substance use, women's recovery, harm reduction and continuing-care groups.

Family-focused options include couples therapy, a Family Support Group, a Parenting Group and Paired Recovery, a clinician-initiated peer-support program.

Adult Program

Each adult program in Massachusetts is designed to help individuals over the age of 18 recover from addiction to drugs or alcohol. The length of the program and its intensity varies, based on the needs of the individual.

Alcoholism

Most alcohol rehab in Massachusetts consists of individual counseling and group therapy sessions, which address mental and emotional concerns that are contributing to alcohol use. Treatment helps participants make changes to maintain sobriety and prevent relapse.

LGBTQ Friendly Rehab

LGBTQ-friendly rehab in Massachusetts offers programs targeted to the unique experiences within this diverse community. Staff specialists understand that an environment promoting acceptance makes it easier for people to open up and focus on healing.

For men who want to stop drinking or using drugs, men’s rehab in Massachusetts offers help and hope. These treatment programs, designed specifically for men, help participants recover and rebuild their lives.

Women's Rehab

Women who are seeking treatment for substance use disorders can receive various levels of care at women’s rehab in Massachusetts. Programs include detox, partial hospitalization programs (PHP), intensive outpatient programs (IOP), telehealth programs, sober living, outpatient, and aftercare.

Teen & Adolescent Program

Teen and young adult substance abuse can set individuals on a life-long path of destruction. A young adult program in Massachusetts can intervene in young adults’ lives to set them on a better path during this crucial stage of life.

Levels of Care

Detox & MAT

The first step to a drug-free future is detox. This involves slowly and safely ridding your body of all addictive substances, under 24/7 supervision. This is typically the initial phase of drug rehab in Massachusetts.

Outpatient Rehab

Massachusetts outpatient rehab does not have a defined timeline. The program is tailored to meet your recovery needs, and may last 90 days or a year or more. During this time, you will attend therapy sessions and support group meetings, for ongoing accountability and development of sober-living skills.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

If you meet the diagnostic criteria for two or more conditions, you have a dual diagnosis. Massachusetts dual diagnosis treatment is designed to address both conditions simultaneously, for improved recovery outcomes.

Payment Options

Financial Aid

If you're struggling to pay for treatment, financial aid may be a solution for you. This can provide access to all levels of care. Financial assistance options include grants, scholarships, non-profit programs, personal funding, and health insurance programs to help you manage the expense of substance abuse treatment.

Medicaid Accepted

If you're in need of financial assistance, MassHealth may be an option for you. MassHealth can help pay for all levels of care, including detox and inpatient rehabilitation.

Medicare Accepted

As a resident of Massachusetts with MassHealth Senior Care Options, you may have coverage options to help with the cost of treatment. The amount of coverage will depend on many things, including whether you are seeking inpatient or outpatient treatment for substance abuse.

TRICARE

Administered by the Department of Defense, TRICARE offers comprehensive military health insurance plans for active and retired military members and their families. Similar to PPO programs offered by private insurance companies, TRICARE covers multiple levels of care for addiction treatment, including detox, inpatient rehab, and outpatient services.

Private Insurance

If you have private insurance, you can use it to help cover the cost of treatment. Most rehab insurance policies tend to have different coverage rates and costs that policyholders are responsible for paying, so check with your insurer for detailed information.

Self-Pay Options

If you prefer to take control of the cost of your treatment, you can opt to pay for it yourself through self-pay options, also known as private pay. This option provides access to all levels of care — from detox to inpatient rehabilitation — because you’re not limited by the rules of insurers or state-run programs.
