Opioid Addiction Treatment in Williamstown, MA
Because You Deserve a Way Out That Actually Works
Opiate addiction doesn’t happen overnight—and neither does recovery. It might start with a prescription. Or a friend’s leftover pills. Or just trying to numb out something that hurt too much for too long. However it began, if you’re here, it’s probably because you’re tired. Tired of chasing, crashing, hiding, or hurting.
At Greylock Recovery, we offer a different kind of support. No lectures. No shame. Just real help from people who understand what you’re up against—and know how to walk with you through it.
📞 Call 413-884-6013 or Verify Your Insurance to take the first step.
What Makes Opiates So Hard to Quit?
Opiates (like heroin, fentanyl, oxycodone, or morphine) hijack the brain’s reward system, rewiring it to crave more—while punishing the body when it doesn’t get it. Withdrawal can feel impossible to survive without help: chills, vomiting, muscle pain, panic attacks, crushing cravings. And relapse? It often hits harder the second time around.
That’s why recovery from opiate addiction requires more than just willpower. It takes medical support, structure, and a team that actually cares if you make it.
Our Levels of Care at Greylock Recovery
Support That Meets You Where You Are—And Stays With You
Opiate recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all. Some people walk in needing to stabilize first. Others are ready to dig into deeper healing. At Greylock, we offer two connected levels of care that work together to carry you through both:
Detox
Withdrawal can be brutal—and dangerous—without the right support. In our medically supervised detox unit, you’ll be monitored 24/7 by licensed professionals who know what they’re doing and actually care. Comfort meds are available. So is compassion. This is the first step toward getting your body—and brain—back.
Residential Treatment
Once you’re medically stable, you’ll move into our structured residential program. This is where the real rebuilding happens. You’ll have a daily schedule, therapy sessions, group support, and a quiet environment that helps you focus without distractions. No judgment. No pressure. Just time and space to figure out how to live again—on your terms.
Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
A Tool—Not a Crutch
When cravings hit hard, or your body still feels like it’s in fight-or-flight mode, sometimes willpower alone just isn’t enough. That’s where Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) can help.
At Greylock, MAT isn’t a shortcut—and it’s definitely not a substitute for real recovery work. It’s a support system, offered with zero judgment, to help you stay grounded while you heal.
How It Works
MAT uses FDA-approved medications—like Suboxone, Sublocade, or Vivitrol—to:
- Reduce withdrawal symptoms
- Ease the grip of cravings
- Give your nervous system time to stabilize
- Help you stay present in therapy and day-to-day life
You won’t be handed a script and sent on your way. Every medication decision is made with your treatment team, based on what actually works for your body and your goals.
Why People Choose MAT
For many, MAT is the difference between another relapse—and a real chance at long-term recovery. You might benefit from MAT if:
- You’ve tried quitting opiates before and couldn’t stay clean
- You fear going through withdrawal again
- Cravings make it hard to focus on anything else
- You’re pregnant and need a safer path to recovery
- You’re coming out of detox and want more stability
MAT at Greylock
The difference here? It’s all on-site. You’ll receive MAT as part of your larger treatment plan—alongside individual therapy, group support, trauma-informed care, and help for co-occurring mental health symptoms.
We’ll check in with you regularly. We’ll listen. And when you’re ready, we’ll talk about tapering—or not. You’re in the driver’s seat, and we’re here to walk the road with you.

Programs That Recognize Who You Are Outside Addiction
You might be a parent. A daughter. Someone carrying trauma. At Greylock, we offer specialty programs that meet you where life’s really happening:
- A Mother’s Journey Program – for pregnant women and new moms who need a soft place to land
- Family Forward – for rebuilding the relationships that matter most
- Stay Connected – long-term check-ins and accountability for life after treatment
This isn’t just opiate treatment. This is care that remembers you’re human—and stays with you as long as you need it.
How Opiates Take Hold—and Why It's So Hard to Break Free
The longer opiate use continues, the more the brain adapts—turning the drug from a “want” into a terrifying “need.” This is why people stay stuck even when they want out. And why the shame spiral gets so deep.
If that’s where you are—trapped in the loop of quitting, relapsing, hiding, and hurting—know this: You’re not weak. You’re human. And you don’t have to do this alone.
