<p><strong>ABOUT CENTER FOR BEHAVIORAL HEALTH LOUISIANA- SHREVEPORT, LA</strong></p> <p>With a focus on clients struggling with <a href="https://www.recovery.org/pro/articles/why-are-opiate-addicts-so-hard-to-treat/" target="_blank">opioid use disorder</a>, the Center for Behavioral Health operates addiction treatment facilities across the country. The center in the Louisiana city of Shreveport offers <strong>outpatient programs</strong>, including <a href="https://www.matrbehavioralhealth.com/" target="_blank">medication-assisted treatment (MAT)</a> via methadone and Suboxone, to adult men and women. It's <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/LA16.pdf" target="_blank">one of only 10 substance abuse treatment facilities in Louisiana</a> (less than one percent of all facilities in the state) to offer an opioid treatment program.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>In order to be admitted, clients must be <strong>18 years or older</strong> and addicted to opiates for one year or more. Those seeking counseling through the Center for Behavioral Health are admitted voluntarily following a self-referral or referral from another agency such as a hospital, court system, child and family services, etc. </p> <p>The facility combines MAT with traditional counselor-led behavioral therapy. The facility does not follow any one counseling philosophy and allows each counselor to treat patients based on their unique needs and the various backgrounds and education of each counselor. </p> <p>Clients are required to participate in <strong>drug testing</strong> based on federal and state laws. All clients receive <a href="https://www.recovery.org/topics/extended-recovery-programs/" target="_blank">aftercare</a> provided at no charge.
