Frequently Asked Questions
What substance use disorders do you help treat and manage?
We provide treatment for substance use disorders involving opioids, alcohol, stimulants, and other substances. We also support individuals facing non-substance addictions, including gambling, food, shopping, and gaming disorders.
Can substance use disorder be treated?
Yes. Substance use disorder is a medical condition—not a matter of willpower or simply “quitting cold turkey.” Like many chronic conditions, it often requires ongoing, whole-person care. Effective treatment typically combines medication (such as Medication-Assisted Treatment), counseling and behavioral therapy, mental health support, and strong community connections. Recovery isn’t always a straight line, and setbacks don’t mean failure—they simply mean the care plan may need to change. With the right support, long-term recovery is possible.
Is this an inpatient or outpatient program?
Our substance use treatment and recovery services are provided as an outpatient program. This means you can receive structured treatment, medical support, counseling, and recovery services while continuing to live at home and maintain work, school, or family responsibilities. If a higher level of care is needed, our team can help discuss options and next steps to ensure you receive the support that’s right for you.
What is Medication-Assisted Treatment/Recovery (MAT/MAR)?
Medication Assisted Treatment and Recovery (MAT/MAR) are game-changers in addressing opioid use disorder. It combines FDA-approved medications—such as buprenorphine, methadone, or naltrexone—with counseling and behavioral therapies to support both physical and emotional recovery.
MAT/MAR helps stabilize brain chemistry, reduce cravings, and lower the risk of relapse and overdose—especially during the early stages of recovery. For many people, it provides the stability and support needed to focus on healing, rebuilding daily life, and moving forward. With the right care and support, long-term recovery is absolutely possible.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes. All major insurance plans are accepted, including: private insurance plans, work (employee-sponsored) insurance, Health Marketplace, Get Covered Illinois plans, Medicaid, Medicare, and MCOs.
What if I don’t have insurance?
We offer a sliding fee scale to make behavioral health care accessible for uninsured or underinsured patients.
What should I do if I’m experiencing an emergency or crisis?
If you are in immediate danger or experiencing a medical or mental health emergency, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room right away.
