Outpatient Programs

Outpatient Programs

Meridian understands addiction and recovery. We know that each person will be successful in his or her own way. Our treatment programs offer many options to fit each person's healing style.

We offer a variety of outpatient programs in several locations (Flint, Pontiac, and Redford). Depending on your individual needs after you complete the intake process, your therapist or health care professional will recommend the appropriate program for you. Through your journey at Meridian, therapist or health care professional will work with you to continually individualize your program.

General Outpatient Program

This program is designed so that you will attend group on a weekly basis which will assist you in starting to learn how to build a support system throughout your recovery journey. You will also meet with licensed therapist twice a month. During the individual sessions, the licensed therapist and you will create a personalized treatment plan that reflects your goals and objectives for your recovery. You will learn and discuss issues such as triggers, challenges and accomplishments that have helped you change your behaviors. The therapist will work with you to incorporate any of your support systems into your therapy sessions. This could be a family member, a peer recovery coach or your sponsor. Therapy is science-based and focuses on helping you recognize behavior patterns and change them, so that you can lead a healthy, balanced lifestyle.

Intensive Outpatient Program

This requires a larger time commitment - at least nine hours each week for nine to 12 weeks. You will have individual therapy sessions and group sessions, and develop plans for recovery and relapse prevention. If you have an additional mental health condition such as anxiety or depression, you will have access to additional group specializing in "co-occurring" issues.

Therapy is science-based and focused on helping you recognize behavior patterns and change them, so that you can lead a healthy, balanced lifestyle.

Medication-Assisted Treatment Program

Waterford:
Meridian's Waterford office offers comprehensive MAT services for men, women and pregnant women who are dependent on substances.

Our MAT program works with you to individualize your treatment program with the assistance of a licensed therapist and a medical provider. This program combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and medications to treat the substance use disorder. Each person is treated by a highly qualified interdisciplinary team of medical and clinical staff who work together with you to create an individualized treatment plan and to continually assess and monitor your progress towards achieving your treatment goals.

Early Intervention Program

Those who are at risk of developing a substance use disorder may be referred to this educational program. The program includes 10 weekly group therapy sessions and two individual therapy sessions. You will learn about the physiological and social effects of substance use and criminal behavior. You also will learn problem solving techniques and will learn about treatment and recovery.

Naloxone Training Program

This program helps you learn how to prevent and respond to overdose situations. You will learn to understand what an overdose is, how to recognize it, how to prevent an overdose, and how to respond to an opiate overdose. You also will receive a Naloxone kit, which will reverse an opiate overdose, and will receive training on how to use it. We educate, train and issue these kits to clients, their family members, professionals and agencies.
