Finding Balance: Combining MAT with Counseling and Support

Discover how medication-assisted treatment (MAT) combined with counseling and supportive care creates a balanced path to recovery in Sacramento and West Sacramento.

Recovery Thrives on Balance

Opioid use disorder (OUD) can often feel overwhelming, not just physically but also emotionally and mentally. True healing is about more than easing withdrawal symptoms,  it’s about building stability in every area of life. At CORE Medical Clinic, we believe recovery is strongest when medication assisted treatment (MAT) is combined with counseling and ongoing support.

How MAT Builds a Foundation

MAT provides structure by stabilizing the body and reducing the cravings that often derail progress. Through options such as methadone treatment, buprenorphine therapy, and naltrexone treatment, patients can regain physical balance and focus on healing.

This stability is not the end goal, it’s the foundation. With the body more at ease, energy and attention can shift to the deeper work of recovery.

The Role of Counseling in Recovery

Counseling creates the space to explore the “why” behind substance use and the challenges that come with rebuilding life. At CORE, patients benefit from:

Together, these approaches help patients rediscover purpose, resilience, and connection.
