Individualized Care
Phoenix House in Ronkonkoma offers adults a safe and supportive environment to focus on recovery with 3 different recovery programs. They offer a men’s and women’s residential program, as well as specialized programming with evidence-based treatment for veterans. Clients go through an initial medical and psychological assessment that will identify their unique treatment needs and provide them with a comprehensive treatment plan. Individually tailored treatment plans are designed to meet each individual’s treatment needs, and case management services provide regular monitoring to track progress and make adjustments accordingly. Clients will work toward their recovery goals with a team of qualified professionals that include licensed therapists, counselors, and trained medical staff who are committed to providing quality care in a supportive environment.
Their highly structured dual-diagnosis program offers holistic, evidence-based treatment. Residential treatment may consist of individual and group therapy, peer support, parenting counseling and support, anger management, relapse prevention, and life skills training. They use proven methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and trauma-specific therapy as part of their programs. Experiential therapy methods may include creative activities led by a therapist, such as art, dance, or music therapy used to promote social and emotional well-being.
In addition to evidence-based therapies, patients will also receive life skills, educational, and vocational training as part of their treatment to help with reintegration back into society and maintaining sobriety. Phoenix House also offers medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to clients who are struggling with physical dependency, which includes medications that can help manage and alleviate the physical symptoms of withdrawal such as methadone or suboxone.
Their military community services program offers substance abuse and mental health treatment specifically designed to deal with suicide prevention, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and the unique needs of veterans, current military personnel, and their families.
Phoenix House is active in engaging with the community, advocating for addiction and mental health treatment and recovery resources. After treatment, clients are connected to a strong alumni network, providing ongoing support and allowing them to stay connected, provide encouragement, and share experiences with others in recovery. Discharge planning can assist clients in finding outpatient support once they complete their residential program.

Center Overview
Treatment Focus
This center treats substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. Your treatment plan addresses each condition at once with personalized, compassionate care for comprehensive healing.
CARF Accredited
CARF stands for the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities. It's an independent, non-profit organization that provides accreditation services for a variety of healthcare services. To be accredited means that the program meets their standards for quality, effectiveness, and person-centered care.
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
Methadone
Dolophine®, Methadose®
Methadone is a full opioid agonist, meaning it activates opioid receptors in the brain to produce effects like pain relief and euphoria. It is longer acting than many other opioids, making it useful in medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorder.
It reduces withdrawal symptoms and cravings by occupying opioid receptors without causing intense highs. Because it is a full agonist, it must be used carefully to avoid overdose, but it is highly effective when taken as prescribed within a structured program.
Naltrexone
Naltrexone
Vivitrol®, Revia®
Naltrexone is an opioid antagonist, meaning it blocks opioid receptors in the brain and prevents opioids from producing effects like euphoria or sedation. It is used to treat both opioid and alcohol use disorders, but does not cause physical dependence or withdrawal.
It helps reduce cravings and the rewarding effects of opioids or alcohol, supporting long-term recovery. Because it blocks opioid effects, it should only be started after a person has fully detoxed from opioids to avoid triggering withdrawal.
Buprenorphine
Buprenorphine
Suboxone®, Subutex®, Sublocade®, Zubsolv®
Buprenorphine is a partial opioid agonist used to treat opioid use disorder. It activates opioid receptors to reduce cravings and withdrawal but has a ceiling effect, meaning it produces less euphoria and respiratory depression than full opioids.
Buprenorphine binds tightly to opioid receptors, blocking other opioids from attaching and reducing the risk of misuse. It's often combined with naloxone (as in Suboxone®) to discourage injection misuse and is available in daily or monthly forms.
This center accepts patients receiving MAT prescribed elsewhere for opioid use disorder, but does not provide MAT.
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.
