About New Era Rehabilitation Center Inc

New Era Rehabilitation Center is an outpatient addiction and behavioral health provider in Bridgeport, Connecticut, with a second clinic in New Haven. Board-certified physicians founded the center in 2002, and their work centers on opioid treatment, methadone maintenance, and counseling. They also treat alcohol use disorder and co-occurring mental health conditions. Their philosophy pairs treatment of the addiction itself with care for underlying issues like anxiety, depression, and trauma, and they aim to reduce harm while keeping people connected to work and home life. Care levels include supervised outpatient detox for opioids and alcohol, ongoing medication-assisted treatment, an intensive outpatient program, and standard outpatient counseling.

Medication options include methadone, Suboxone, and buprenorphine for opioid use disorder, plus monthly Vivitrol injections for alcohol dependence after an eligibility assessment. Methadone patients typically start with daily clinic visits for dosing and may qualify for take-home doses as they stabilize. The intensive outpatient program runs 8 to 12 weeks in small groups of 10 to 12 people, meeting three times a week for three hours per session. Individual therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, family counseling, and groups covering early recovery skills, 12-step work, anger management, and relapse prevention round out treatment, along with medication management, wellness education, and aftercare planning. They accept Medicaid, Medicare, and many private insurance plans, and both clinics sit near the highway and public transit.
