APT Foundation Inc Residential Services Division

Amethyst House provides residential treatment beds for individuals requiring intensive, round-the-clock support during critical phases of recovery. The facility combines structured residential programming with the flexibility of outpatient services, allowing residents to gradually transition between levels of care as their recovery progresses.

Located in New Haven's established recovery community, residents benefit from proximity to ongoing support networks and alumni connections throughout south-central Connecticut. The residential treatment environment emphasizes building sustainable recovery skills while maintaining connections to family and community support systems.

The center operates a certified Opioid Treatment Program (OTP) providing methadone services through the broader APT Foundation network. This specialized programming addresses the unique challenges of opioid addiction recovery, combining medication-assisted treatment with behavioral interventions and peer support.

Dual diagnosis capabilities allow simultaneous treatment of substance use disorders alongside trauma, PTSD, and other co-occurring mental health conditions. This integrated approach recognizes that many individuals enter recovery carrying multiple interconnected challenges that require coordinated clinical attention.

Outpatient programs serve both individuals stepping down from residential treatment and community members seeking ongoing recovery support without residential placement. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy forms the foundation of therapeutic programming, helping participants develop practical skills for managing triggers, cravings, and life stressors.

Telehealth capabilities extend program access across New Haven County and greater Connecticut, ensuring geographic barriers don't interrupt recovery progress. This technology proves particularly valuable for alumni maintaining long-term recovery connections and accessing ongoing clinical support.

Insurance acceptance includes Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, and Connecticut state insurance programs, removing financial barriers for diverse community members. Veterans receive specialized attention recognizing their unique service-related experiences and potential trauma exposure.

American Sign Language interpretation ensures the deaf and hard of hearing community receives full access to group programming, individual counseling, and peer support activities. This commitment to accessibility extends to serving pregnant women, court-ordered participants, and individuals with HIV/AIDS, creating an inclusive recovery environment.
