About us

The Beacon Center in Lockport, New York, offers comprehensive addiction treatment and support to people of all ages. Programs tailored to a client’s gender are created to give a safe, comfortable space for them to discuss their particular struggles. Beacon Center, which is dedicated to a person-centered approach, provides flexible, customized, and situation-sensitive therapy.

The intense outpatient program (IOP) at Beacon is designed for those who need a greater level of dedication to their healing journey than what conventional outpatient therapy can provide. This program offers a combination of individual and group therapy, as well as vital life skills lessons that are intended to promote long-lasting change, in addition to nine hours of weekly treatment and skills training sessions.

Beacon Center provides medication-assisted therapy (MAT) in addition to IOP, which addresses the psychological and physical components of addiction by combining counseling with FDA-approved drugs. Clients participate in skills workshops and relapse-prevention programs via MAT to aid on their path to long-term recovery.

Beacon Center, a reputable brand in mental health since 1990, is a New York State-certified treatment facility that runs two Opioid Treatment Programs (OTPs) in Central New York. One example of Beacon’s dedication to provide assistance that upholds patients’ dignity and promotes long-term rehabilitation is the Albert O. Nichols House, a community reintegration program for males. For those who are serious about solidifying their recovery foundation in a sober, supportive setting, this program is very beneficial.

Beacon Center’s mission statement expresses its conviction that recovery is achievable and that mental health and drug use issues are curable. They seek to provide therapy that is easily accessible, non-intrusive, customized to meet the requirements of each patient, and provided in an environment that upholds their dignity and sense of self. Beacon Center, a sizable, female-owned company in Western New York, places a high value on private, compassionate care and continues to adapt to changing community needs while upholding the highest levels of professional competence and empathy. The majority of major insurance plans are accepted at Beacon Center, including Humana, Cigna, Wellmark, and Anthem. Before starting treatment, clients are advised to confirm the specifics of their coverage.
