PORT Human Services

PORT Human Services delivers outpatient substance abuse treatment through their Kinston facility, emphasizing Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) as a primary intervention strategy. The center's outpatient program structure allows individuals to maintain work, school, and family responsibilities while engaging in regular therapeutic sessions and medical monitoring.

Their Multisystemic Therapy approach addresses the environmental and relational factors that influence recovery outcomes. This therapeutic method works particularly well in outpatient settings where individuals continue living in their home communities, requiring strategies to navigate ongoing social and family dynamics that may impact sobriety maintenance.

The facility incorporates Applied Behavior Analysis alongside traditional addiction counseling, providing structured behavioral intervention strategies. This approach proves especially valuable for individuals with co-occurring developmental or behavioral challenges, addressing substance use within the context of broader behavioral patterns.

Culinary Arts Therapy represents PORT's innovative approach to recovery engagement, offering hands-on therapeutic experiences that build practical life skills while processing recovery challenges. This creative therapeutic modality provides alternative pathways for individuals who may not respond optimally to traditional talk therapy formats alone.

PORT's ability to serve children, youth, and adults creates opportunities for coordinated family treatment planning. Their Multisystemic Therapy particularly supports family units where multiple members may benefit from therapeutic intervention, addressing substance use within the broader family system dynamics.

The center's mental health integration allows families to address substance abuse alongside other behavioral health challenges that may affect recovery success. This comprehensive approach recognizes that sustainable recovery often requires attention to multiple interconnected family and individual needs simultaneously.
