About Us

Proven Addiction Rehab in Massachusetts

The team at Lake Avenue Recovery is firmly grounded in the philosophy that sometimes it takes an overwhelming breakdown to have an unbelievable breakthrough. At our addiction treatment center on the shores of Lake Quinsigamond in Worcester, MA, and Gardner, MA, our entire staff has the professional training necessary to guide each client to their highest potential through substance use disorder recovery.

Om vi börjar med de tekniska aspekterna så innehåller båda läkemedlen aktiva ingredienser. Köpa Viagra receptfritt innehåller sildenafil, medan Cialis använder tadalafil och oavsett vilken du väljer, behöver du ett recept först. Viagra kan dock skrivas ut fritt på NHS medan Cialis 20mg är begränsat, vilket innebär att det kan vara svårare att få tag på. Viagra finns i tre doser (25 mg, 50 mg eller 100 mg) medan Cialis finns i fyra (2,5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg och 20 mg), och båda läkemedlen tas oralt. Båda läkemedlen är utformade för att tas i en ”på begäran” kapacitet, så du tar ett piller innan du vill få erektion. De lägre doserna av Cialis (2,5 mg och 5 mg) är dock utformade för att tas dagligen så att du inte behöver planera i förväg. Detta är särskilt populärt för män som vill få erektion mer än en gång i veckan. Viagra (Sildenafil) och Cialis (Tadalafil) är båda tillgängliga som märkesvaror eller generiska och med olika tablettmängder.

At the detox I went to, I felt like just another number and I was very wary of further treatment. Thankfully, I landed at Lake Ave where my treatment has been just the opposite.

Our Specialities

What We Treat

Alcoholism

Those with alcoholism become reliant on alcohol both physically and psychologically and experience withdrawal symptoms if they try to quit drinking.

Drug Addiction

We developed our drug rehab in Massachusetts to reflect our belief in CURE: treating people through Compassion, Understanding, Respect, and Empathy.

Dual Diagnosis

7.7 million adults in the U.S. have a dual diagnosis. 52.5% of them do not receive treatment for either condition.

Mental Health

We continue to work together to eradicate stigma, expand access to care, and integrate the latest evidence-based services and medications into treatment.

Barriers To Addiction Treatment

A person in need of treatment for addiction to drugs or alcohol may embrace the fact that they need help, but still feel hesitant to take action. This can be for a variety of reasons, but ultimately it keeps the individual from getting the vital help they need for their substance use disorder. Lake Avenue Recovery recognizes that it takes true courage for someone to overcome the barriers to seeking addiction treatment. We explore the most common obstacles that keep people from entering outpatient treatment, whether as a first step in getting help or after completing residential treatment.
The cost of quality treatment for addiction can cause many people to feel scared to even explore the option. One of the benefits of attending outpatient care is that it proves much less expensive than residential or inpatient care. Because the person in treatment doesn’t reside in a facility, they can count on a lower cost that still provides the highly focused care they need. In addition, most insurance plans cover different levels of treatment for substance use disorders, making it affordable for people from all backgrounds.

This fear can crop up in two different ways. Someone who has just completed residential care may understand they will benefit from immediately transitioning to outpatient care but feel scared of working with a new treatment team. As well, someone who begins the entire process of seeking help in an outpatient center may feel concerned about meeting new people. Opening up and discussing emotions, behaviors, and experiences may seem frightening at first, but our staff of therapists is trained to help ease people into the process. We strive to make everyone feel a sense of safety and security while we work with them. We offer a compassionate, judgment-free experience provided by friendly experts who work to gain each person’s trust.

For those who do not live close to our facility, Lake Avenue Recovery provides transportation from supportive housing/sober living homes in the area. We also provide transportation to our local gym partner.

People are hardwired to want to avoid feeling embarrassed or judged by others. While someone who needs treatment for their substance use disorder may feel they are all alone, the reality is that they are not alone. In fact, a study done in 2021 revealed that 46.3 million people in the U.S. aged 12 or older met the criteria for having an addiction to drugs or alcohol. Getting help from a safe and proven facility does not mean the person is bad or weak. It actually shows they have great strength and bravery because they are choosing to become well and regain control of their lives.

    Lake Ave clients keep their cell phones, laptops, or tablets with them throughout treatment. We ask that they be silenced during groups to reduce distractions and interruptions.

    Our experienced medical and clinical staff use a comprehensive assessment to determine which level of treatment would be most suitable. This assessment is based on the American Society of Addiction Medicine’s placement criteria, the most widely used and comprehensive set of guidelines for placement, continued stay and transfer/discharge of patients with addiction and co-occurring conditions.

    We evaluate you on an individualized and personal level. Our comprehensive assessment starts with psychological and cognitive evaluations so we can better understand your history with addiction, identify any co-occurring disorders that may affect your treatment and place you in the appropriate care. This assessment will help determine our recommendation to you for PHP or IOP level of care.

    If you are experiencing the effects of withdrawal or need detox, we will gladly help place you in one of the many detox programs or other substance abuse centers in Massachusetts with whom we have strong relationships, prior to you joining Lake Ave Recovery for treatment.
