About this facility
Located just a 4-minute drive from the scientific landmark, the American Museum of Science and Energy, Groups Recover Together Oak Ridge offers outpatient treatment for opioid use disorder, focusing on care for underserved communities. Since 2014, the center has delivered flexible office-based opioid treatment (OBOT), combining medication-assisted treatment (MAT) with both virtual and in-person counseling. The center operates Monday through Thursday and is closed on Fridays and weekends.
Patients receive evidence-based care, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and the matrix model. These approaches address trauma, anger management, and relapse prevention to promote emotional stability and long-term recovery. Services also include substance use education, discharge planning, aftercare coordination, and sign language support for the deaf and hard of hearing.
The facility provides FDA-approved suboxone to manage withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings, complemented by weekly group therapy sessions. Clients receive personalized care from a supportive team including substance use counselors, recovery support specialists, and clinicians. Their intake specialists remain available 24/7 to answer questions and assist clients in scheduling appointments online at their convenience.
