About Queen City Treatment Center
Treatment Centers LLC offers opioid addiction and co-occurring disorder treatment through multiple centers in North Carolina. One of the centers is Queen City on Albemarle Road in Charlotte. Their programs are for adults.
They accept Medicare, some Medicare Advantage plans, and Medicaid. Some patients may be eligible for state funding. They also take many major insurance carriers.
The Charlotte clinic is an outpatient clinic. They’re open on weekdays and Saturdays at various hours. They’re closed on most federal holidays.
The clinic offers methadone treatment which is an evidence based therapy for opioid addiction. Methadone blocks the brain receptors that opioids affect thereby allowing you to gradually detox without terrible withdrawal symptoms. They also use Suboxone (a blend of naloxone and buprenorphine). Buprenorphine helps with withdrawal symptoms. Naloxone keeps you from misusing opioids.
Both the methadone and Suboxone treatments have positive results in as little as 90 days. There are no damaging side effects with these drugs as long as you take the proper dose. Licensed nurses, working under the supervision of an onsite doctor, administer the medications so you can be sure you’re getting the proper dose.
In addition to the medication assisted treatment (MAT), you’ll have a personalized approach to your recovery. You’ll participate in group and individual counseling to address any co-occurring disorder you may have. Some examples of co-occurring disorders are depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. The program also emphasizes a healthy lifestyle through proper nutrition and exercise.
The program starts with an initial intake at which time the team will make sure you have all the information you need to get started. They’ll answer any questions, verify your insurance, and discuss a comprehensive treatment plan. Be sure you leave a few hours for the initial intake. Most people are in the program for 90 days or more. If you’re on methadone maintenance, you’ll typically be required to stay in the program for 12 months or longer. If you think you’re pregnant, inform the staff as soon as possible.

Accepted Insurance
Other Forms of Payment
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
There are many types of drug rehab in North Carolina. To receive treatment for addiction, you can choose from many inpatient and outpatient programs. Often, participants start with detox and work through a full continuum of care that continues with ongoing support for long-term recovery.
A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.
Men and women enjoy a supportive environment within group therapy sessions for drug and alcohol addiction treatment. You can share your experiences and build connections with your peers while receiving encouragement from individuals who have faced similar challenges.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.
During couples therapy in North Carolina, a psychologist helps you and your partner resolve problems that are occurring in your relationship. This licensed therapist uses talk therapy to help you both work through challenges together. The process involves learning new skills to better handle conflict and life issues.
Family therapy sessions address the emotional toll that addiction has had on the family unit and individual members. Therapists work with families to develop better coping strategies, which in turn create a stable environment for their loved one's recovery process.
