About Spero Health

Spero Health in Winchester, Virginia, is part of a network of outpatient addiction clinics specializing in opioid use disorder, and they also treat alcohol and other substance use disorders. Their model follows American Society of Addiction Medicine guidelines and combines medical care, counseling, and recovery support in one coordinated setting, so patients can keep living at home and stay on top of work, school, and family responsibilities. Care is offered as standard outpatient treatment and, at many locations, an intensive outpatient program (IOP), with telehealth visits available to eligible Virginia residents. They accept Medicaid, Medicare, and commercial insurance, and same-day or next-day appointments are often possible.

Medication-assisted treatment is central to their approach, with providers prescribing and monitoring Suboxone, Sublocade, Brixadi, and Vivitrol to ease withdrawal and cravings, always alongside individual or group counseling. IOP adds structured group therapy several days a week, individual sessions, and relapse prevention planning before patients step down to regular outpatient care. Recovery support staff help with practical needs such as employment, housing, child care, legal services, and transportation, and wellness offerings cover smoking cessation, sleep hygiene, and nutrition. Accountability is built in through urine drug testing, medication counts, and prescription monitoring, with visits starting more frequently in early recovery and tapering as patients become more stable.
