About Groups Recover Together
Groups Recover Together Kingsport offers outpatient care for opioid use disorder, prioritizing support for underserved communities. Since 2014, the center has provided flexible office-based opioid treatment (OBOT) that blends medication-assisted treatment (MAT) with counseling available in both virtual and in-person formats. Services run Monday through Thursday, with the center closed on Fridays as well as weekends.
Treatment is based on evidence and includes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and the matrix model. These methods target issues such as trauma, anger management, and relapse prevention to strengthen emotional regulation and support sustained recovery. Additional support includes education about substance use, discharge planning, aftercare coordination, and sign language assistance for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing.
The center uses FDA-approved Suboxone to help ease withdrawal symptoms and limit cravings, along with weekly group therapy. Patients work with a dedicated, encouraging team that includes substance use counselors, recovery support specialists, and clinicians. Intake specialists are available 24/7 to address questions and help clients book appointments online at times that fit their schedule.
