Description

The Clinician’s Guide for Medication Assisted Treatment, provides valuable strategies and general knowledge to counselors working with patients on Suboxone or other Buprenorphine medications. The guide and accompanying patient’s workbook, offer a solid plan of recovery for Opioid Use Disorder. Many if not most patients and counselors are fairly new to MAT and going through a major learning curve. Addiction treatment is rapidly evolving. It is our hope that these workbooks will help bring more consistency to Buprenorphine treatment programs. Suboxone programs vary from doctor to doctor and from counselor to counselor. There are many different opinions concerning when to taper, how to taper, and if to taper at all. These two books combine to form a cohesive counseling plan and recovery strategy for MAT patients on Buprenorphine medications. I work closely with Buprenorphine prescribers in developing and maintaining successful Suboxone programs. Much of what is contained in this guide is based on experiences and observations gathered from actual counseling sessions during the last six years. When doctor, counselor and patient work together, the results can be amazing.
