Course overview

Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) is a treatment modality for substance use disorders. It combines counseling and behavioral therapies for addiction with medications used at careful dosages to reduce the physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal and assist clients in the recovery process. With half of people 12 and older reporting use of an illicit substance at least once and 21 million Americans experiencing addiction, this is an important and relevant topic.
