Virtual Alcohol Treatment in Maryland

Yes! Research shows that virtual alcohol treatment can be just as effective as traditional in-person programs. Our approach combines evidence-based medication (naltrexone), professional counseling, and peer support—delivering the same core elements that make traditional programs successful, but with added convenience and privacy that actually improves consistent participation.

For moderate drinkers, the naltrexone approach typically prevents significant withdrawal symptoms since it allows for gradual alcohol reduction. However, if you currently consume large amounts of alcohol daily and are concerned about withdrawal symptoms, we recommend reaching out to us before joining the program to make sure it's a good fit for you. In some cases, a medically supervised detox may be necessary before beginning, and we may refer you to a separate program for that. If you do join, we will refer you to a physician who can evaluate your situation and may suggest additional medical support to ensure your safety during the transition.

You can start right away. As soon as you join the program, you’ll get instant access to our full library of resources, community support, and coaching. You’ll also be invited to schedule a Welcome Call with our team and receive a referral to a Maryland-licensed physician who specializes in prescribing naltrexone for alcohol use. During your telemedicine appointment, the doctor will assess your situation and determine the best plan for starting naltrexone safely and effectively.

Unlike approaches that view alcohol problems as moral failings requiring willpower, we treat alcohol use disorder as a medical condition responding to evidence-based intervention. Our program integrates modern neuroscience, behavioral therapy, and community support without requiring spirituality, labels like "alcoholic," or abstinence as the only measure of success.

Our program is delivered through a secure, private platform where you control what information you choose to share—including your name. Your personal data is never shared with anyone outside of our program. Additionally, the physicians we work with follow all HIPAA regulations to ensure your health information remains protected and confidential.
