About MiraVista Behavioral Health Center

MiraVista Behavioral Health Center in Holyoke, Massachusetts, is a behavioral health hospital that pairs inpatient psychiatric care for adolescents and adults with outpatient substance use treatment that has served the Pioneer Valley for more than 40 years. On the addiction side, they run a methadone-based opioid treatment program open seven days a week and an office-based medication clinic for opioid, alcohol, and stimulant use, including outpatient withdrawal support for people with mild-to-moderate use. Their psychiatric units focus on short-term crisis stabilization, with average stays of 7 to 14 days for adults and 7 to 10 days for teens, and the adult unit can also address co-occurring substance use. They are part of TaraVista Health Partners, accept commercial insurance, Medicare, and MassHealth, offer sliding fee scales based on income and family size, and have Spanish-speaking staff.

In the opioid treatment program, each patient works with a dedicated team of nurses, master’s-level therapists, physicians, and physician assistants, receiving medication management, assessments, individual and group counseling, case management, and harm reduction planning, with transportation available within a 25-mile radius. The office-based clinic, MiraVista Recovery Services, prescribes options such as Suboxone, Sublocade, naltrexone, and Vivitrol, while individual counseling draws on relapse prevention, motivational interviewing, and DBT, along with connections to community resources. For people with OUI charges, they provide the Massachusetts Impaired Driver Program and a year-long Second Offender Aftercare program that requires a court referral. They also hand out Narcan and offer overdose response training at no cost, and the adult psychiatric unit emphasizes gender-affirming care with particular attention to the safety of LGBTQIA+ patients.
