About Ascension Saint Mary – Chicago

AMITA Health Saints Mary and Elizabeth Medical Center Chicago offers outpatient addiction treatment services at its Saint Mary campus in Chicago, Illinois. The program provides individual counseling, group behavioral therapy and structured intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization programs for adults. I appreciate how their approach addresses both substance use disorders and behavioral addictions, offering flexible care designed to fit into your daily life.

Outpatient Programs

The medical center provides tiered levels of outpatient care, including intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization options for adults working through substance use challenges or behavioral addictions such as gambling and internet use, shopping and food related concerns. These structured programs allow you to receive focused treatment while maintaining responsibilities at home or work.

I want to note that treatment includes individual counseling sessions tailored to your recovery goals and group behavioral therapy where you connect with others facing similar struggles. Sessions focus on building coping skills, understanding the underlying drivers of addiction and creating a sustainable plan for long term wellness.

Amenities

Massage Room

The massage room offers a wealth of benefits as part of an overall evidence-based drug and alcohol recovery program. Massage therapy boosts blood flow and flushes lactic acid from the muscles, and the vascular benefits last several days after the massage.

Private Rooms

In order to maintain a sense of autonomy, many private rehab facilities offer clients the ability to choose their own private rooms. The privacy and personal space ensure that the recovery process is as comfortable as possible.

WiFi

Some rehab programs offer free Wi-Fi to guests who have full access to their smartphone devices or laptop computers during treatment. While access to these devices may be allowed, the time spent using them is often regulated or restricted so clients can focus on treatment.

Residential Setting

Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recover. Benefits of an inpatient program include increased safety, a higher success rate, and the time and distance given to focus on recovery. Residential drug rehabs are often the preferred method of treatment, as they can be tailored to meet specific needs, offer focused therapeutic care, and provide the necessary tools to sustain recovery.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Adult Program

Individuals who are struggling with addiction to drugs or alcohol can get support at an adult program in Illinois. Designed for men and women over the age of 18, these programs offer rehabilitation treatment and recovery services.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

In Illinois, cognitive behavioral therapy is an effective method for addiction treatment. It teaches effective communication skills, provides tools to help people improve mood, and empowers participants to dismiss insecurities that can lead to substance abuse.

Men's Rehab

Men’s rehab in Illinois typically includes individual, group, and family therapies. Group sessions are conducted with men only, which encourages greater vulnerability and sharing opportunities among participants.

Women's Rehab

Women who have substance use disorders are more likely than men to have co-occurring mental health disorders. Women’s rehab in Illinois often provides treatment for dual diagnosis, so women can get help for their addiction and disorders such as anxiety or depression.

Alcoholism

Each alcohol rehab in Illinois is unique, but most include three basic aspects of treatment: medical detox, psychotherapy, and medication. Through these methods, participants receive treatment for the physical, mental, and emotional aspects of alcohol use disorder.

Levels of Care

Inpatient Rehab

Inpatient rehab in Illinois features intensive clinical supervision and a highly structured and supportive environment, meaning this level of care is especially well suited for clients just beginning their recovery journey and those at risk of relapse.

An Illinois dual diagnosis program treats both your mental health and recovery needs. Psychiatrists and addiction specialists work together to address co-occurring disorders, such as depression, anxiety, or ADHD.
