APT Foundation’s Orchard Hill Treatment Services operates at 352 State Street in North Haven, Connecticut. Current federal and accreditation records continue to identify Orchard Hill at this address as an adult opioid treatment program, while Connecticut’s DMHAS treatment availability system also lists the program for intensive outpatient care. APT’s broader substance use program treats people affected by opioids, alcohol, and other substances, including clients with co-occurring mental health conditions. For someone seeking alcohol treatment, Orchard Hill can provide outpatient structure, but its opioid-treatment role should be clearly distinguished from medication care for drinking problems.
Intensive Outpatient Support
APT describes its intensive outpatient model as a minimum of nine hours of group sessions, individual sessions, and psychiatric consultation across three days per week, followed by less intensive outpatient support. This level of care can help adults who need more structure than occasional counseling while continuing to live at home. A person addressing alcohol use can work on motivation, triggers, coping strategies, emotional regulation, and relapse risk while receiving treatment within APT’s person-centered addiction system.
Evidence-Based Counseling and Mental Health Care
APT’s current clinical model includes motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral theory, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, group therapy, individual therapy, psychiatric services, and embedded primary care. These approaches can be valuable when alcohol addiction occurs alongside depression, anxiety, trauma, chronic medical problems, or another substance use disorder. Treatment is based on assessment, presenting problems, risk, age, gender, and culture rather than applying one standardized plan to every client.
Opioid Treatment and Other Substance Use Care
Orchard Hill is federally listed as a certified opioid treatment program, and APT commonly uses methadone and buprenorphine for opioid use disorder. Those medications should not be described as medications for alcohol use disorder. Adults whose main problem is alcohol should tell the clinical team that clearly so counseling, psychiatric care, and any appropriate medication for drinking problems can be planned correctly. If severe withdrawal risk is present, an outpatient clinic may also need to coordinate with a medically monitored setting before continuing routine care.
Withdrawal Safety
People with previous alcohol withdrawal seizures, delirium, severe medical illness, or rapidly worsening symptoms should not assume that Orchard Hill’s outpatient services are equivalent to inpatient detox. APT can evaluate needs and connect clients with other levels of care when outpatient treatment is not sufficient for safe stabilization.
Current Contact and Payment Options
The verified address is 352 State Street, North Haven, CT 06473, and current CARF and SAMHSA records list 203-781-4600. APT states that it provides access to treatment regardless of ability to pay. Current facility data associated with the program identifies Medicaid, Medicare, private health insurance, self-payment, and an income-based sliding-fee option. People seeking alcohol rehab services should call to confirm current IOP availability, insurance participation, authorization requirements, and which APT program is best matched to their diagnosis.
