BHG Franklin Virginia Treatment Center

About BHG Franklin Treatment Center
BHG Franklin Treatment Center is part of Behavioral Health Group (BHG), one of the largest providers of medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder in the United States. Located in Franklin, Virginia, the center provides evidence-based opioid addiction treatment combining FDA-approved medications with counseling and comprehensive support services to help patients achieve lasting recovery.

Medication-Assisted Treatment Programs
BHG Franklin Treatment Center offers multiple medication options for opioid addiction treatment including methadone, provided through their opioid treatment program (OTP) with daily dosing under medical supervision; buprenorphine treatment (Suboxone); extended-release buprenorphine (Sublocade and Brixadi); and naltrexone treatment (Vivitrol). Each medication serves a specific role in recovery — methadone and buprenorphine help relieve withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings, while naltrexone blocks the effects of opioids. The medical team works with each patient to determine the most appropriate medication based on their individual clinical needs.

Counseling and Peer Recovery Support
Beyond medication management, BHG Franklin provides individual and group counseling services, comprehensive care coordination, and peer recovery support. Licensed counselors help patients develop the skills and strategies needed for long-term recovery, including relapse prevention planning, stress management, and relationship repair. Peer recovery support specialists — individuals with lived experience in recovery — provide additional guidance and encouragement, serving as role models for what sustained recovery looks like in daily life.

Patient-Centered Care Philosophy
At BHG, patients are welcomed into the care of doctors, nurses, counselors, peer support specialists, and other staff who provide treatment with dignity and respect. The center recognizes that the path to healing is different for everyone — some patients are just beginning treatment, others are returning after a pause, and some are transferring from another provider. Whatever the situation, the clinical team meets patients where they are and supports them with care plans tailored to their specific needs and circumstances.

Serving the Franklin Virginia Community
BHG Franklin Treatment Center proudly serves patients across Franklin, Suffolk, Courtland, and the greater Southampton County area of southeastern Virginia. The center is open six days per week with early morning hours to accommodate patients' work schedules. Operating hours are Monday through Friday from 5:00 AM to 1:00 PM and Saturday from 6:00 AM to 9:30 AM. The facility provides an essential treatment resource for a community that has experienced significant impacts from the opioid epidemic.

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year.

Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.

BHG Franklin Virginia Treatment Center offers 2 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.

The facility utilizes 7 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.
