About

About CTI Harlem

CTI Harlem is an outpatient substance use treatment clinic located at 177 East 122nd Street in East Harlem, New York. The program is operated by Services for the UnderServed (S:US), a long-established New York City nonprofit founded in 1978 that serves tens of thousands of individuals annually through housing, behavioral health, veterans services, developmental disabilities services, and urban farms.

CTI Harlem provides outpatient and intensive outpatient counseling for adults navigating substance use disorders, with particular experience serving clients with co-occurring mental health conditions, HIV/AIDS, and histories of homelessness or housing instability. The program’s location within the S:US network is one of its defining strengths: clients can be linked to supportive housing, vocational services, and veterans-specific resources alongside their clinical treatment, a model especially valuable for clients whose recovery depends on stable housing and community connection.

The program is CARF-accredited and licensed to provide outpatient substance use services in New York State. Clinical work emphasizes cognitive behavioral therapy, individual and group counseling, and integrated mental health support. CTI Harlem accepts Medicaid, private insurance, state coverage, and self-pay.

For adults in Upper Manhattan and East Harlem seeking outpatient addiction care backed by a citywide network of housing and supportive services, CTI Harlem offers a community-rooted option with strong wraparound capacity. The program is reachable at (212) 360-7116.

Located in East Harlem, the facility has served New York residents since 1978, developing expertise in managing complex detox cases including clients with HIV/AIDS and other medical complications that require specialized attention during withdrawal.

The facility's integrated approach addresses trauma, PTSD, and other psychiatric conditions alongside substance use disorders, recognizing that successful detox outcomes often depend on treating underlying mental health issues simultaneously.

The center's cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) programs help clients develop coping strategies for both addiction recovery and mental health management. This therapeutic approach proves particularly valuable for clients transitioning from medical detox into outpatient care, as it provides practical tools for managing triggers and maintaining sobriety while addressing trauma or other psychological concerns.

CTI Harlem maintains CARF (Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities) accreditation, demonstrating adherence to rigorous standards for addiction treatment and medical detox services. This accreditation requires regular evaluation of clinical protocols, staff qualifications, and patient safety measures, ensuring that detox clients receive care meeting established industry benchmarks.
