The Role of Psychiatric Services in Addiction Recovery

At Victory Recovery Partners, a network of addiction-recovery centers on Long Island and NYC, we offer psychiatric services to our patients who are battling substance use and addiction issues. Psychiatric services are frequently needed, as many of our patients commonly have co-existing psychiatric conditions in addition to their substance use issues.  Substance use can develop due to personal issues such as chronic stress, anxiety, or depression. Additionally, conditions such as bipolar disorder, which is a “long-term” psychiatric condition, can also increase one’s chances and risks for developing a substance use disorder. With all of that being said, medication management is a major component of the treatment plans for many of our patients.

Our psychiatric services create a safe and secure provider-patient relationship. Patients will work with our team of psychiatric providers, such as psychiatric physician assistants, psychiatric nurse practitioners, and psychiatrists to develop a custom-tailored treatment approach. As a result, patients will be able to understand the underlying issues behind their addiction, allowing them to understand the connection between addiction, their body, and their brain.

Victory is unique in that we do not only rely on counselors to treat patients. As explained above, with our team of Physician Assistants and Nurse Practitioners, we make higher levels of specialized care available to our patients. Additionally, we are typically able to see new patients within 24-48 hours – in contrast to other practices who have longer lead times and may refer patients to third-party providers.

Our psychiatric services include a number of effective options, customized to the needs of each patient. We offer the following:
  • Psychiatric Evaluations
  • Medication Management
  • Group Therapy
  • Cognitive-behavioral therapy
  • Family Therapy
  • Anger Management

We have found that our patients truly appreciate having several options available to them for their psychiatric care. By accepting all insurances, we continuously operate and enforce our motto of “No One Left Behind”. Furthermore, we offer virtual appointments with our providers, allowing patients to receive their treatment from the comfort of their own homes.

Victory Recovery Partners, a network of addiction-recovery centers on Long Island and NYC, provides outpatient services to patients suffering from substance use disorder and addiction. We are unique in that all of our services are provided under one roof. This includes medication-assisted treatment, psychiatric, wellness, and behavioral health services. At Victory, we recognize that treating the whole patient is what matters most. Each patient is unique – by offering a large number of services, we ensure that each patient will have a custom-tailored and effective treatment plan. If you or someone you know is struggling with substance use disorder and addiction, we would like to help. For more information on Victory Recovery Partners, please visit our website.
