Integrated Suboxone® Treatment

“Medication is the starting point.
Recovery is the destination.”

Suboxone at Cove Recovery is not a prescription service.
It is a clinical program.

At Cove Recovery, Suboxone is a tool — not a solution on its own. We prescribe it as part of a structured, accountable treatment program that addresses the full picture of opioid use disorder: your substance use, your mental health, your recovery goals, and your life.

If you are currently receiving Suboxone from a provider with no therapy, no monitoring, and no real treatment support — we offer something different.

Real Outcomes. Real Recovery.

Our Bridge to Abstinence program has helped clients achieve lasting recovery from opioid use disorder. We are proud of what our clients have accomplished — and we believe the results speak directly to what structured, accountable treatment can do.

These outcomes are not accidental. They are the result of a program that requires real engagement — therapy, accountability, monitoring, and integrated mental health care — not just medication.

“Many of our clients are more than three years abstinent from drugs and alcohol. This is because we do everything we can to help those who need it most.”

Cove Recovery Clinical Team

Why Cove Recovery is Different

Many providers prescribe Suboxone® with minimal oversight — a brief appointment, a prescription, and little else. That is not treatment. At Cove Recovery, we will not simply write prescriptions.

Every client in our program must be actively engaged in treatment. That means:

Full SUD clinical assessment before medication begins — not after
Required participation in individual and group therapy
Co-occurring mental health screening and integrated treatment
Random urine drug screening — standard for every client, not optional
Regular prescriber oversight and medication management
Individualized treatment planning, updated as progress is made
Relapse prevention planning built into every treatment plan

Two Medication Pathways

The choice of pathway is a clinical decision made with your treatment team — not a prerequisite for starting care. Both pathways are equally supported within our program.

Pathway 1
Ongoing Suboxone
Maintenance & Recovery

For clients who benefit from continued medication support as part of their long-term recovery. Suboxone is prescribed as a clinical tool fully integrated into active SUD and mental health treatment.

Includes:

Ongoing medication support and management
Required group and individual therapy
Co-occurring mental health treatment
Random urine drug screening
Individualized and evolving treatment plan

About Suboxone
(Buprenorphine/Naloxone)

Suboxone contains buprenorphine, which reduces opioid cravings and withdrawal symptoms, and naloxone, which helps prevent misuse. Buprenorphine is FDA-approved and widely recognized as a gold-standard treatment for opioid use disorder.

Suboxone helps:

Reduce cravings and the discomfort of withdrawal
Lower the risk of relapse and overdose
Stabilize brain chemistry and restore daily functioning
Create the stability needed to fully engage in recovery

Suboxone is most effective when combined with structured therapy and recovery support — which is exactly how we prescribe it.

Pathway 2
Suboxone Taper to Vivitrol
Bridge to Abstinence

A structured, medically supervised Suboxone taper with transition to monthly Vivitrol injections. For clients whose recovery goal is full abstinence from opioid medication.

Includes:

Medically supervised Suboxone taper
Careful clinical monitoring throughout transition
Individual and group therapy
Monthly Vivitrol injection upon successful taper
Relapse protection — Vivitrol blocks opioid effects

About Vivitrol (Naltrexone)

Vivitrol is a monthly injectable form of naltrexone that blocks opioid receptors in the brain for a full 30 days. It is prescribed as part of our Bridge to Abstinence pathway and provides ongoing protection against relapse after a successful Suboxone taper.

Vivitrol helps:

Block the effects of opioids, eliminating the reward of relapse
Reduce cravings over time
Provide monthly accountability with no daily medication required
Support treatment of alcohol dependence as well as opioid use disorder

Important: Before starting Vivitrol, clients must be completely opioid-free for a minimum of 7 to 14 days.

Our medical team works closely with each client to ensure the transition is safe and that the initial injection does not cause sudden withdrawal.

Integrated Mental Health Treatment

Opioid use disorder rarely exists on its own. Depression, anxiety, trauma, and PTSD are common in people struggling with opioid addiction — and untreated mental health conditions are among the most significant drivers of relapse.

At Cove Recovery, mental health treatment is not a referral or an afterthought. It is built into your treatment plan from day one.

Comprehensive mental health screening at intake
Individual therapy addressing trauma, anxiety, depression, and co-occurring conditions
Psychiatric services available as clinically indicated
Coordinated care between your prescriber, counselor, and therapist

Treating substance use and mental health together leads to stronger, more sustainable outcomes. That is why we do both — for every client, on every pathway.

Who We Serve

We accept clients at multiple points in the recovery journey:

Individuals who have completed medical detox and are ready to begin MAT
Clients stepping down from inpatient or residential treatment
Clients currently prescribed Suboxone elsewhere who want integrated treatment support
Clients in stable maintenance who want therapy and accountability added to their care
Clients seeking a medically supervised taper with transition to Vivitrol
Clients with co-occurring mental health disorders requiring integrated treatment

Clients who are still actively using opioids will be comprehensively assessed and referred to medical detox or inpatient treatment before beginning Suboxone. We coordinate that admission directly — we do not leave clients to navigate it alone.

In-Person and Telehealth
— Hybrid Model

Cove Recovery operates a required hybrid model. Initial assessments, prescriber appointments, and urine drug screenings require in-person attendance. Therapy sessions may be delivered in-person or via telehealth based on clinical need and client circumstances. Fully virtual medication management is not available.

Your Treatment Team

Every client at Cove Recovery has access to a coordinated clinical team, including:

Prescriber — medication management and medical oversight

Licensed Addiction Counselor — individual counseling and treatment planning

Group Therapy Facilitators — structured SUD group treatment

Mental Health Therapist — co-occurring disorder treatment and individual therapy

Clinical Care Coordinators — supporting transitions, referrals, and continuity of care

Your prescriber and therapist communicate directly. Your care is coordinated — not siloed.
