Volpicelli Center for Addiction

The Volpicelli Center for Addiction is a specialized medical practice focused on the treatment of alcohol and substance use disorders through evidence-based methods. Founded by Dr. Joseph Volpicelli, a pioneer in the field who led the landmark clinical trials for naltrexone, the center emphasizes a combination of pharmacological intervention and psychosocial support. It is particularly well-known for implementing the Sinclair Method, which utilizes targeted medication to achieve pharmacological extinction of addictive cravings. The center provides outpatient services, including medical consultations, personalized treatment planning, and counseling. Its approach, often referred to as the Volpicelli Model, integrates biological, psychological, and social components to foster long-term recovery.
