Duane Dean Behavioral Health Center

Our organization proudly offers accredited programs through the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) International, ensuring the highest standards of care. Staffed by master’s level counselors and social workers, our services are overseen by a dedicated Board of Directors and directed by our experienced Director of Clinical Services.

We specialize in Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), a comprehensive approach that combines FDA-approved medications with counseling and behavioral therapies to address substance use disorders. This holistic method aims to treat the whole patient by integrating medication with therapeutic support.

MAT has demonstrated significant effectiveness, particularly in managing opioid use disorders. In 2013, approximately 1.8 million people struggled with opioid use related to prescription pain relievers, and about 517,000 faced issues with heroin. MAT has proven to be clinically effective, greatly reducing the need for inpatient detoxification services and offering a tailored approach to each patient’s needs. This approach includes supportive services to address a range of patient requirements.

The medications used in MAT are administered at safe and controlled levels to manage opioid dependence. Research indicates that when properly dosed, these medications do not adversely affect intelligence, mental capabilities, physical functioning, or employability, providing a robust and supportive treatment option for those in need.
