Drugs and substances treated at our Charlotte rehab
The Charlotte clinical team delivers drug rehab across the full range of substance use disorders alongside co-occurring mental health conditions. Each substance has a distinct withdrawal profile, relapse risk, and pharmacological option set; treatment is tailored accordingly.
Substances treated: alcohol, opioids (heroin, fentanyl, prescription opioids), benzodiazepines, prescription medications, cocaine, methamphetamine, polysubstance use.
Co-occurring mental health conditions: depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, bipolar disorder, ADHD. Mental health symptoms are treated alongside substance use using ASAM Criteria and LOCUS assessments at intake.
For deeper detail by substance and condition, see the substances cluster and dual diagnosis cluster.
Medication-assisted treatment in our Charlotte drug rehab
For opioid use disorder, the MAT formulary at Charlotte includes Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) as the primary agent, plus Vivitrol (extended-release naltrexone) and Sublocade (monthly buprenorphine injection). Methadone is not in our formulary; clients who need methadone are referred to a federally licensed opioid treatment program in the Charlotte metro.
For non-opioid substance use disorders, behavioral interventions are primary. CBT targets the trigger-thought-craving chain; DBT supports emotion regulation; motivational interviewing handles ambivalence; relapse-prevention planning maps substance-specific triggers. There is no FDA-approved medication comparable to Suboxone for stimulants, medication is used selectively for co-occurring conditions.
Clinical approach at the North Carolina drug rehab
The clinical model is consistent across The Archangel Centers, calibrated to North Carolina licensure and practice standards.
Modalities
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, narrative therapy (available for clients whose individual therapist recommends it), and medication-assisted treatment (Suboxone, Vivitrol, Sublocade). Methadone is not in our formulary; clients who need methadone are referred to a federally licensed opioid treatment program in the Charlotte metro.
Dual diagnosis at intake
ASAM Criteria (substance use), LOCUS (mental health acuity), PHQ-9 (depression), GAD-7 (anxiety), Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale, biopsychosocial history, nutrition, and pain screens. Co-occurring mental health conditions are part of the treatment plan from day one.
Family programming
Family therapy and family support work, with the client's signed release, run alongside primary treatment.
Trauma-informed care
Trauma-informed practice is the default across groups and individual sessions. Trauma-informed therapy is available for clients who screen in. We use "Trauma-informed care available" and "Trauma-informed care" because that is what we deliver.
Signs you may need drug rehab in Charlotte
Substance use disorder is a clinical diagnosis with specific criteria. If several of the following describe your current pattern, an assessment at our Charlotte drug rehab is the right next step.
- Tolerance, needing more of the substance to feel the same effect
- Withdrawal symptoms, substance-specific symptoms that resolve only with use (benzodiazepine and severe opioid withdrawal can require medical detox first)
- Loss of control, using more, or for longer, than intended
- Failed attempts to cut back, repeated promises followed by the same pattern
- Escalating use, larger amounts, more frequent dosing, or riskier routes
- Polysubstance combinations, benzodiazepines plus opioids, or stimulants plus opioids, sharply raise overdose risk
- Continued use despite consequences, legal, work, family, financial, or medical fallout
- Mood and personality changes, irritability, depression, or anxiety in non-use periods

A program built by people who have been there
“I came back from rock bottom. I'm here because I want to show others they can too. This isn't just a business. It's my mission.”- Mike Sorrentino, Founder
Mike and Lauren Sorrentino did not set out to build a generic treatment center. They wanted a recovery-grounded program that mixes lived experience, licensed clinical expertise, and family programming that actually moves the needle for the people who love someone in active addiction.
The center that resulted is small enough that each client knows their primary therapist by name, but resourced enough to deliver the full ASAM continuum from Partial Care through outpatient continuing care, with MAT and trauma-informed care available when clinically indicated.
Read the Full StoryMost clients leave the first admissions call with a clinical assessment, an insurance verification, and a scheduled start date. Recovery starts with a decision, not a commitment. The admissions line is staffed around the clock.
Admissions inquiries receive an individual review. Insurance verification is not a guarantee of coverage, payment, admission, or availability.
