About Meridian Psychotherapy
Meridian Psychotherapy Services, LLC is a private psychotherapy group in Virginia Beach, Virginia. They treat clients with substance use and/or co occurring mental health disorders. They provide medication management, psychiatric evaluations, outpatient detox with Suboxone and treatment for a range of mental health issues. Care is provided by licensed physicians, psychiatrists, therapists and nurse practitioners. One of the nice things is they accept most insurance plans including TRICARE and Medicare.
One of the unique things about this center is that they offer Spravato (esketamine) for clients with treatment resistant depression. Spravato is a nasal spray administered in the office. Most clients take it for about six months though sometimes longer. You’ll have to remain at the office for two hours after receiving the spray and you can’t drive home after your appointment.
They also offer an outpatient medical detox program for clients with opioid use disorder. This is a four to six week program using Suboxone. You’ll be given tapering doses of the drug until you’re free of opiates. You’ll meet with a therapist and participate in group therapy regularly while in the program. They have a maintenance program for those who need to be on Suboxone for longer periods.
There’s a S.A.F.E. group which is a monthly educational group for family and friends of those with chemical dependency. The group teaches you strategies for dealing with someone in recovery. You don’t have to have a client getting treatment at the practice to attend. The program is on the first Monday of each month via Zoom from 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. The program is limited to two support individuals per family and only those 15 and older can attend. You must register first and the cost is $25.00 for two people.
If you have a teen in recovery then there’s a teen program for kids ages 14 to 17. This is a hybrid (Zoom and in person) program that runs for 12 weeks. The program is a youth substance abuse outpatient program for females and males where they’ll find guidance and support in maintaining sobriety.

Accepted Insurance
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.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.
Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

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.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.
Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
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.
