About Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist
The Chemical Dependency Program at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist is part of the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine and is dedicated to providing individualized, structured care for individuals with substance use disorders, delivered by highly trained professionals.
Treatment Tailored to Individual Needs
The program serves individuals diagnosed with a substance use disorder who are willing to participate in outpatient care and whose medical and safety status allow treatment outside hospitalization. Services offered include confidential assessments, outpatient detoxification, medication management including buprenorphine for opioid use, dual-diagnosis treatment, individual treatment planning, 12-step orientation, random drug screening, family education and therapy, relapse-prevention programs, and continuing-care support following intensive phases.
Structure That Helps Sustain Recovery
Admission requires a valid diagnosis of a substance use disorder, ability to engage in treatment and manage daily responsibilities, and stable medical status. Treatment involves both group and individual sessions covering topics like psychoeducation, triggers, relapse prevention, spirituality, family roles, and the whole-person model. Continuing care is required after the intensive phase, typically involving weekly group sessions for at least twelve weeks. Participation in external support groups such as AA or NA is also required.

Specializations
Drug Addiction
Drug addiction is the excessive and repetitive use of substances, despite harmful consequences to a person's life, health, and relationships.
Intensive Outpatient Program
In an IOP, patients live at home or a sober living, but attend treatment typically 9-15 hours a week. Most programs include talk therapy, support groups, and other methods.
Medication-Assisted Treatment
Combined with behavioral therapy, prescribed medications can enhance treatment by relieving withdrawal symptoms and focus patients on their recovery.
Opioids
Opioids produce pain-relief and euphoria, which can lead to addiction. This class of drugs includes prescribed medication and the illegal drug heroin.
Who We Treat
Men and Women
Men and women attend treatment for addiction in a co-ed setting, going to therapy groups together to share experiences, struggles, and successes.
Approaches
Family Involvement
Providers involve family in the treatment of their loved one through family therapy, visits, or both–because addiction is a family disease.
Personalized Treatment
The specific needs, histories, and conditions of individual patients receive personalized, highly relevant care throughout their recovery journey.
Twelve Step
Incorporating spirituality, community, and responsibility, 12-Step philosophies prioritize the guidance of a Higher Power and a continuation of 12-Step practices.
Therapies
1-on-1 Counseling
Patient and therapist meet 1-on-1 to work through difficult emotions and behavioral challenges in a personal, private setting.
Family Therapy
Family therapy addresses group dynamics within a family system, with a focus on improving communication and interrupting unhealthy relationship patterns.
Medication-Assisted Treatment
Combined with behavioral therapy, prescribed medications can enhance treatment by relieving withdrawal symptoms and focus patients on their recovery.
Motivational Interviewing
Based on the idea that motivation to change comes from within, providers use a conversational framework to discover personalized methods for change.
Psychoeducation
This method combines treatment with education, teaching patients about different paths toward recovery. This empowers them to make more effective decisions.
Relapse Prevention Counseling
Relapse prevention counselors teach patients to recognize the signs of relapse and reduce their risk.
Spiritual Care
Tending to spiritual health helps treatment become more effective, allowing patients to better cope with their emotions and rebuild their spiritual wellbeing.
