Substance Use Disorder
Substance use disorder (SUD) occurs when the recurrent use of alcohol or drugs causes significant clinical impairment, including health problems, disability, and failure to meet responsibilities. At Diamond Link Psychiatric Services, we approach SUD with compassion and evidence-based care. We assess each individual’s pattern of use, underlying triggers, and co-occurring mental health conditions to create a holistic recovery plan.
- Comprehensive Assessment: In-depth evaluation of substance use history, severity, and any co-existing psychiatric concerns.
- Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT): Use of FDA-approved medications (e.g., buprenorphine, naltrexone) to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms.
- Relapse Prevention Planning: Skill-building sessions focused on coping strategies, triggers identification, and early warning sign recognition.
- Integrated Counseling Coordination: Collaboration with therapists and support groups to address both addiction and mental health needs.
- Ongoing Aftercare Support: Regular follow-up visits to monitor progress, adjust treatment, and reinforce long-term recovery goals.
Our team provides nonjudgmental, patient-centered care designed to treat the whole person, not just the addiction. We combine medical expertise with empathetic support, ensuring safety and dignity throughout recovery. By coordinating with therapists, family members, and community resources, we build a strong support network that empowers lasting change. At Diamond Link, you’ll find a partner committed to guiding you every step of the way toward renewed health and well-being.
