Every client starts in a different place, and care at Meta Addiction Treatment meets them with a clear road map to make a change for the better. Their approach addresses co-occurring mental health conditions alongside substance use in the same plan, not one after the other. Full-day and half-day outpatient programs, led by Master's-level clinicians, treat substance use disorders like alcohol, opioids, and cocaine alongside anxiety, depression, and trauma.

Build a Well-Rounded Recovery Plan

Treatment plans center on the whole person, not just the substance use or mental health challenge that brought them in. Clinicians draw on evidence-based methods like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing (MI) to build coping skills and shift unhelpful thought patterns. Mindfulness, meditation, yoga, art therapy, and nutritional counseling round out the approach, giving clients more than one way to process what they're working through.

Shape Each Day around Commitments

Full-day and half-day formats give clients a level of structure that matches where they are in treatment, stepping down from one to the other as they build stability. Each day mixes individual and group therapy, skills-building sessions, and educational workshops, with breaks built in for reflection. Clinicians adjust the schedule as each client's needs change, keeping care consistent from one week to the next.

Stay Connected with Events and Resources

Every client leaves with an aftercare and relapse prevention plan built before their program ends. Continued counseling, support groups, and community resources help reinforce the coping strategies developed in treatment, while relapse prevention planning targets each person's specific triggers. Alumni events keep former clients connected to peers who understand the challenges and encouragement recovery still requires long after treatment ends.

Testimonial
I've struggled with my mental health for most of my life and always kept afloat one way or another, but Meta was the biggest turning point for me. I've felt so supported everyday while given an environment I felt safe in to heal. They've given me knowledge and coping skills that I will carry with me throughout my life. I'm very grateful to the Meta team and everyone I've met through them. For the first time since I was a kid I feel like I'm living and not just holding on.

Include Family in Recovery
Include Family in Recovery
Family involvement is built into treatment whenever it fits, based on the belief that having family engaged raises a person's chances of lasting success. Family counseling sessions cover addiction education and communication skills, helping relatives understand the recovery process and their part in supporting it long-term, with sessions scheduled around what works for each family.
Keep Working During Treatment
Keep Working During Treatment
Treatment doesn't have to mean putting work or school on hold. Full-day and half-day options are built around each client's existing commitments, and clinicians adjust care plans as responsibilities shift over time. The scheduling team works directly with each client to shape a plan that reinforces both recovery and outside obligations.
Talk It Out with Peers
Talk It Out with Peers
Group sessions include peer-driven discussion, where clients work through recovery alongside others facing similar challenges, not just one-on-one with a clinician. Full-day programming adds 12-Step sessions on top of this, building a sense of shared accountability that carries past the day's last session.
Find Hours That Work
Find Hours That Work
The North Reading location holds extended hours, open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. That range makes it easier to schedule sessions around a job, classes, or family obligations without losing momentum in early recovery, especially for clients balancing more than one commitment at a time.

MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT

Supportive Medication for Recovery

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is an evidence-based approach that pairs FDA-approved medications with counseling to treat addiction. The medications are used to reduce cravings, ease withdrawal symptoms, or block the effects of substances. More about MAT

Methadone

(Dolophine®, Methadose®)
Reduces opioid cravings
Not Available

Naltrexone

(Vivitrol®, Revia®)
Blocks opioid effects
Accepted

Buprenorphine

(Suboxone®, Subutex®, Sublocade®, Zubsolv®)
Eases opioid withdrawal
Accepted

This center accepts patients receiving MAT prescribed elsewhere for opioid use disorder, but does not prescribe it.

Note: Treatment centers offer different forms of MAT—such as oral tablets, dissolvable films, or monthly injections—and their policies can vary based on state regulations, provider preferences, and insurance coverage. Because of these differences, it's best to contact the center directly to learn what options are available and what might be right for your situation.
