About Our Programs
The Montefiore Einstein Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences has a broad network of substance use disorder treatment programs providing compassionate, evidence-based outpatient care throughout the Bronx for adults and adolescents who suffer from a range of substance use disorders, including alcohol, cocaine, cannabis, benzodiazepines, heroin, fentanyl and other opiates, as well as co-existing conditions such as depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorders and others.
Our dedicated team of addiction treatment professionals includes medical providers, mental health clinicians, peer advocates and support staff who assist our patients in developing the skills they need to reach their goals. Montefiore Einstein’s programs build upon a harm reduction framework to integrate addiction medications such as methadone and buprenorphine (Suboxone®) with patient-centered, state-of-the-art supported care.
Over the past 40 years, we have helped thousands of men and women enter recovery and rejoin their families and communities. Through recovery, individuals are empowered to help find meaning in their lives and integrate into their communities.
