How medication decisions are made at the New Milford campus
Nothing is prescribed before a board-certified PMHNP completes a full evaluation — history, current needs, and what treatment stage a client is entering all factor in. After that, medication management runs on a regular follow-up cadence: dosing and approach get adjusted as treatment moves forward, and every change is coordinated with the primary therapist and recovery manager rather than decided in isolation.
For many of our clients, medication-assisted treatment is the thing that makes the program workable at all — it isn't a track running alongside treatment. When medication settles the physiological noise, a client's energy can finally go into the psychological work of recovery instead of being spent just getting through the day.

“I was referred to Lantana for aftercare and I'm so grateful I did it! The staff is so amazing and supportive. They listened to client feedback and made program enhancements. Ralph, Yana, Bill & Christian are so down to earth and easy to talk to! I will stay connected and look forward to alumni events!”
“I have a strong connection to Lantana Recovery in New Milford, CT. I have been able to stay sober for many years through this connection. The culture here supports a strong 12-step fellowship presence through sponsorship and step work for those who desire it. The staff here is amazing — supportive and helpful. They can even help with getting clients connected to the local recovery community. The location is perfect too, tucked into a quintessential New England downtown.”
“My husband had been in and out of different facilities for a six-month period. Once he was moved to Lantana there was significant improvement almost immediately, and my husband was able to move through the program and succeed. Thank you to the team at Lantana for understanding his issues and working toward a recovery and a plan for him to move forward.”
“This program and staff saved my son's life. They are kind and compassionate and treated us with respect. Addiction is a powerful disease and cannot be battled alone — it takes an army, and Lantana has built a great force to help families with that battle. We could not be more grateful for Mark, Mike, Christian and the entire team.”
“Lantana has consistently helped clients of mine that have gone through their programs. The clinical staff is top notch and their support staff are equally impressive at providing excellent care to clients. After 15 years of working in the treatment field I am still very confident when I refer families to Lantana for help with their loved ones.”
“The program at Lantana is wonderful. I went to Lantana directly after leaving a 30-day inpatient program and this was the best decision. The program helped me learn many coping skills for my recovery. The entire staff is amazing — they even helped with aftercare once I completed the program. I can't say enough about how wonderful this experience was.”
“Lantana Recovery is amazing! I can't say enough great things about this treatment center. They genuinely care and have a team that truly puts recovery first. The staff is compassionate and knowledgeable, creating a safe and supportive environment for healing. They don't just treat the addiction — they care for the whole person, offering tools and guidance that really make a difference. I highly recommend this center to anyone seeking real, lasting recovery!”
