About Colonial Management Group
Colonial Management Group was located in Richmond, Virginia. They helped patients recover from opioid addiction. They’re closed now, but their main focus was counseling and they also had an intensive outpatient program with medication assisted treatment (MAT) that utilized methadone, buprenorphine and Suboxone.
Their counseling consisted of one on one, family and group sessions. They focused on helping patients deal with stress, handle loss and setbacks and find better ways to move forward. Long term success was their goal here by helping patients figure out the triggers that led to their addiction and ways to navigate them in the future.
They used counseling with MAT to help patients with detox and withdrawal symptoms. They believed medication under the guidance of a doctor and counselor was the best path to recovery. They stressed that MAT helped you return to work, family and social life as quickly as possible. They also felt that it’s better for a patient recovering from opioid addiction to learn to cope with their existing environment rather than be taken out of it.
The intensive outpatient program here was designed for people who didn’t quite need the level of care that an inpatient setting has but still needed some therapy and support. This program was focused on education about wellness, recovery, resiliency and family.
They handled Medicaid and Medicare patients as well as several private insurances but those were restricted by region. What really stood out for me about this treatment center was that they had a team effort approach to help people get better and recover.

Other Forms of Payment
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Addiction Treatments
Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
When you enroll in drug rehab in Virginia, a treatment plan is designed by professional staff in order to help you overcome drug addiction and modify addictive behaviors. This may include evidence-based treatments, group and individual therapy, and relapse prevention.
A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Clinical Services
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
