Medical Marijuana (Cannabis) Certification

under Connecticut State Health guidelines

Medical Marijuana (Cannabis) Certification

We assist in providing documentation and certification for the state of Connecticut-approved indications of medical cannabis use. While the main psychiatric indication for medical cannabis use is PTSD, there are several medical conditions that the state of Connecticut considers eligible conditions for medical marijuana use, which our clinic can discuss and document for our patients.
Central Connecticut Behavioral Health provides help and advice when it comes to treating you with the help of medical marijuana. We ensure that it is consumed correctly and when it is indeed required. Our main concern is to focus on comfort, safety, and making you feel better by being caring and personal.

Process For

Evaluating Patients for Medical Cannabis

At Central Connecticut Behavioral Health (CCBH), the first step on the way to medical cannabis is thorough consultation, the way we do it online or in the office, depending on what is more comfortable to you. Our practice starts with a close examination of your medical report, present, and any prior course of treatment. We find time to educate ourselves about your condition, and know whether it qualifies to be a medical cannabis condition according to the demands of the state. We mostly evaluate states like chronic pain, anxiety, PTSD, and neurological diseases.

We can take steps only if we feel that the benefits outweigh the risks. Our assistance does not stop just because it is approved. At CCBH, we are always in touch with how you are doing, overseeing your development, and ensuring that cannabis is safely and effectively incorporated into your treatment plan as part of our personalized care model.

We also use medical marijuana to assist patients experiencing a lack of sleep or restless sleep. Our goal is to increase the quality of sleep through the relaxation of the mind, elimination of anxiety, and making the patient feel more rested and non-emotional.
