South End Drug Rehab Center

Early on a Sunday you might stroll through the SoWa Open Market, certain that the South End’s tight-knit charm shields it from Boston’s opioid emergency. Yet the Boston Public Health Commission’s 2024 overdose report reveals 352 South-End-and-beyond residents lost their lives to opioids that year—the city’s highest toll on record. If you or someone you love is feeling that undertow, East Coast Recovery in Cohasset offers a welcoming lifeline just beyond the skyline.

South End Challenges, Statewide Realities

  • Fentanyl’s footprint. Massachusetts officials confirm the synthetic opioid was present in 93 percent of fatal overdoses in 2022—a record proportion that pushes relapse risks sky-high.
  • Urban stressors. High rents, service-industry schedules, and dense nightlife along Tremont and Harrison make abstinence harder to sustain.
  • Treatment bottlenecks. Many Boston programs require lengthy wait-lists or full-time residential stays that clash with jobs and family duties.

East Coast Recovery bridges those gaps, giving South End clients hospital-level support by day and the option to sleep in their own beds—or in our sober-living residence—each night.

Where We Are and How to Reach Our Treatment Center

Address: 215 Chief Justice Cushing Highway, Cohasset MA 02025 Phone: (617) 390-8349 

  • Drive: I-93 S to MA-3 S brings most South End residents to our front door in about 40 minutes during standard traffic, confirmed by embedded mapping on our contact page.
  • Train: The MBTA’s Greenbush Line runs from South Station to Cohasset Station; a five-minute rideshare finishes the trip.
  • Ride support: Admissions staff arrange pickups for first-day intakes and provide evening shuttles so you can attend city-based recovery meetings without logistical headaches.

Programs Tailored to Your Stage of Recovery

Day Treatment

Our day treatment delivers six hours of structured therapy, five days a week. You’ll immerse yourself in cognitive-behavioral groups, individual counseling, and family sessions, then return home—or to our sober house—for the evening. For many South End residents balancing work or caregiving, this program offers inpatient intensity minus overnight separation.

Partial Day Treatment

Partial day treatment trims attendance to 10-12 clinical hours weekly—usually late afternoon or early evening blocks—so you can keep up with school or work obligations. Expect skill-focused groups, trauma-informed therapy, and peer accountability that deepens coping capacity without dismantling daily life.

Outpatient & Aftercare

Graduates step down to weekly or bi-weekly counseling and alumni groups, reinforcing relapse-prevention strategies while you rebuild routines back in the South End.

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)

For opioid or alcohol use disorder, evidence-based medications such as buprenorphine or naltrexone are paired with counseling. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration notes MAT improves survival and boosts retention in treatment, making recovery more durable.

Dual Diagnosis: One Team, One Plan

The National Institute on Drug Abuse explains that substance use and mental illness commonly intersect, complicating outcomes if treated in silos (NIDA co-occurring disorders). Our clinicians screen every client for anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other conditions, then integrate psychiatric support and evidence-based therapies—such as EMDR or DBT—into your addiction plan from day one.

Beyond Four Walls: Holistic Experiences

Beach Process Groups

Fridays often conclude with small-group therapy on Cohasset’s Sandy Beach, where sea air and open horizons make vulnerability feel safer.

Adventure & Community

Nature walks in Wompatuck State Park, cookouts on our lawn, and evening shuttles to Boston AA/NA meetings ensure you practice sober living in real-world settings before graduation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  • How long is the commute from the South End?

    Most clients drive to Cohasset in 40 minutes via I-93 S and MA-3 S, while the MBTA Greenbush Line reaches Cohasset Station in about an hour door-to-door, including a five-minute ride-share hop.

  • Do I have to live on campus?

    No. All programs are outpatient by design. Many South End residents sleep at home; others opt for our sober-living house when home triggers are strong or commuting is burdensome.

  • What if I’m struggling with both anxiety and fentanyl use?

    Our dual-diagnosis model addresses mental health and addiction simultaneously. You’ll meet clinicians trained to manage medications, trauma therapies, and relapse-prevention strategies in one integrated plan.

  • Is Medication-Assisted Treatment replacing one drug with another?

    MAT medications stabilize brain chemistry so you can focus on therapy; they are administered under strict medical supervision and have been shown to increase treatment retention, reduce illicit opioid use, and lower overdose risk—benefits documented by SAMHSA.

  • Will my insurance cover treatment?

    East Coast Recovery is in-network with most major insurers. Our admissions team verifies benefits quickly and transparently explains any out-of-pocket costs before you commit.
