Community Medical Services N 23rd Ave Phoenix

This Phoenix clinic handles opioid use disorder on an outpatient basis, so people come in for visits and go home the same day instead of staying overnight. The team combines prescribed medication with counseling sessions, so the medical and counseling parts of care move together rather than on separate tracks.

Clinicians oversee medication, and therapists run one-on-one and group sessions. Peer support specialists with their own recovery history serve alongside that clinical staff, giving practical encouragement from a person who has been there. The clinic calls its methods evidence-based and builds treatment around each individual.

The site near W Northern Ave and I-17 is reachable by car or public transit and has parking. Arizona has 433 SAMHSA-listed facilities in all, and this is one of them, listed under outpatient care.

Programs at this 23rd Ave clinic

Care here is outpatient only, built around medication-assisted treatment. Clinicians use FDA-approved medications to reduce cravings and ease withdrawal discomfort, and that medication plan is paired with counseling rather than standing alone.

Counseling choices include individual sessions, group therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, trauma-focused therapy, life skills work and relapse prevention counseling. Arizona outpatient opioid treatment at this clinic pairs medication with evidence-based counseling for adults. Aftercare includes discharge planning, continuing care and peer mentoring.

Ask about daily visit structure and take-home schedules before you go, since those details shape how care fits around work and family.
