Lawrence Comprehensive Trt Ctr

Lawrence Comprehensive Treatment Center provides two levels of outpatient care designed to meet people where they are in their recovery. The standard Outpatient Program offers structured clinical support with scheduling flexibility, while the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) delivers a higher frequency of care for individuals who need more consistent engagement to sustain their recovery. Both options allow clients to remain connected to their lives, families, and communities — a key advantage of outpatient-based substance abuse treatment.

As a certified Opioid Treatment Program accredited by CARF, the center operates within a recognized framework for quality and accountability. This certification signals to individuals and families evaluating long-term treatment options that the center meets established standards for opioid use disorder care — not just as a short-term intervention, but as a sustained recovery resource.

The clinical foundation at Lawrence Comprehensive Treatment Center is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a structured therapeutic approach that helps individuals identify and change the thinking patterns underlying addictive behavior. CBT is particularly well-suited to outpatient treatment settings because the skills it builds are practical and portable — clients can apply them in everyday situations long after formal sessions end.

For people building a long-term recovery plan, a treatment approach rooted in CBT offers tools that remain relevant through every phase of the recovery continuum, from active treatment through aftercare and beyond. The center's focus on this method reflects a commitment to equipping clients with durable coping strategies rather than short-term stabilization alone.

One of the distinguishing features of Lawrence Comprehensive Treatment Center is its confirmed service to individuals who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing. Access to addiction treatment has historically been uneven for this community, and a facility that explicitly identifies this population signals a meaningful commitment to inclusive recovery care.

Combined with a wide range of accepted payment types — including Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay — the center works to reduce the barriers that most commonly prevent people from engaging with substance abuse treatment and sustaining their recovery over time.

Located at 10 Embankment Street in Lawrence, MA 01841, Lawrence Comprehensive Treatment Center is open every day of the week. Weekday and Saturday hours begin at 5:45 AM, with Saturday closing at 9:00 AM and weekdays running through noon. Sunday hours run from 6:00 to 10:15 AM. This schedule is built to accommodate the realities of people in recovery who are also managing employment, caregiving, and community obligations.

The center accepts Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay or cash arrangements. This breadth of payment coverage makes it one of the more financially accessible outpatient recovery programs in the Lawrence area for individuals across a wide range of economic circumstances.
