Addictions We Treat At Fusion Recovery

Alcohol Use Disorder & Alcoholism Treatment

Alcohol addiction is one of the most common and most treatable substance use disorders, but it requires the right clinical support to address safely. Fusion Recovery offers personalized alcohol addiction treatment, including medication-assisted treatment (naltrexone and Vivitrol), medically supervised detox coordination, IOP, and individual and group counseling.

Opioid Addiction Treatment

Opioid use disorder covers the full spectrum from prescription pain medications to heroin and fentanyl. Fusion Recovery’s MAT-first approach, with methadone, Suboxone, Sublocade, buprenorphine, naltrexone, and Vivitrol all available, is the gold standard for opioid treatment and the approach most strongly supported by clinical evidence.

Heroin Addiction Treatment

Heroin dependency is one of the most physically and psychologically demanding forms of opioid use disorder to recover from. Fusion Recovery’s OTP-certified program provides MAT-first heroin treatment alongside structured outpatient programming, individual therapy, and peer support, in a non-judgmental environment built for real recovery.

Fentanyl Addiction Treatment

Fentanyl’s potency makes dependency develop quickly and withdrawal feel acute, and the contaminated drug supply means many people encounter fentanyl without intending to. Fusion Recovery provides urgent, compassionate fentanyl addiction treatment through our full MAT toolkit and OTP-certified program.

Benzodiazepine dependency is one of the most clinically complex addictions to treat; withdrawal requires careful medical management, not abrupt stopping. Fusion Recovery coordinates medically supervised tapering alongside CBT, DBT, and structured outpatient programming to support safe, lasting benzo recovery.
Cocaine addiction is driven by powerful cravings and behavioral patterns that respond best to evidence-based behavioral therapy. Fusion Recovery’s counseling-focused approach, CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, and relapse prevention, addresses cocaine and crack cocaine addiction through structured outpatient care and IOP.
Meth addiction carries significant stigma and significant treatability. Fusion Recovery provides evidence-based meth treatment through CBT, contingency management, DBT, and structured IOP in a non-judgmental environment where recovery is the only focus.
Prescription drug dependency, whether opioids, stimulants, or sedatives, develops through many pathways, and treatment needs to reflect the specific substance and how use began. Fusion Recovery provides tailored treatment for prescription drug addiction across substance classes.

Stimulant use disorder, covering cocaine, methamphetamine, and prescription stimulants, is treated at Fusion Recovery through evidence-based behavioral therapies, including CBT, contingency management, and IOP. No FDA-approved MAT currently exists for stimulants; treatment is counseling-focused and clinically proven effective.

Synthetic substances, including fentanyl analogues, synthetic marijuana, and bath salts, present unique clinical challenges due to their unpredictability. Fusion Recovery’s treatment approach for synthetic drug addiction combines MAT, where applicable, with behavioral therapy and structured outpatient care.
Cannabis use disorder is real and treatable, even if it’s often minimized. Fusion Recovery’s counseling-based approach, CBT, motivational enhancement, and IOP, support patients working through cannabis dependency in a non-judgmental clinical environment.

Substance Use & Co-Occurring Mental Health

Addiction and mental health conditions rarely travel alone. At Fusion Recovery, we treat both simultaneously through an integrated clinical approach, because treating only one consistently leads to the other pulling people back. Our co-occurring disorder programming addresses the substance use disorder and the mental health condition together, from the same clinical team, through the same program.

Conditions we treat alongside addiction include:
