About Family Guidance Center

This branch of Family Guidance Centers is located in Chicago, Illinois, and is known for providing evidence-based treatment to adults with substance use disorder. They’re also experienced in treating clients with a dual diagnosis. This is when a person is living with addiction issues and a co-occuring mental health disorder, such as depression or anxiety.

I appreciate that Family Guidance Centers doesn’t follow a ‘one size fits all’ approach to treatment. They instead create personalized treatment plans that consider a client’s addiction, strengths, and recovery goals, as well as take into account additional issues, like legal concerns and domestic violence.

Outpatient treatment programs vary in intensity, depending on a client’s needs. Whatever the program, clients will receive individual and group counseling to help them dig deep into the underlying causes of their addiction and develop healthy coping strategies to deal with substance use triggers. Clients may also receive addiction education, which teaches clients about the emotional, psychological, and physical consequences of substance use.

Those with opioid addiction, whether it be heroin or pain medications, may be eligible for the center’s medication assisted treatment program. In medication assisted treatment clients are prescribed medication to relieve opioid cravings and withdrawal, so they can fully engage with a personalized counseling program.

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.

Levels of Care

Outpatient Rehab

Outpatient rehab in Illinois may be brief or long-term, depending on the individual. During this time, you will maintain membership in a support group as well as attend one-on-one counseling sessions. The focus is ongoing development of life skills that will prevent relapse.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Detox & MAT

The first step toward a drug-free future is typically detox. This initial phase of drug rehab in Illinois can last up to a week. During this time, addictive substances are slowly and safely cleansed from your body.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

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.

Payment Options

Financial Aid

If you need help to pay for alcohol and drug rehab in Illinois, there are a number of financial aid programs available. In order to qualify for aid, you must fill out an application and check on the status of your application often. Competition can be stiff for these forms of financial assistance.

Payment Plans & Financing

For those who are underinsured or uninsured, paying the total cost of a rehab program up front is not feasible. Fortunately, many alcohol and drug rehabs make financing available to potential clients through private loans, in-house payment plans, or partner lenders. You can choose a finance package that lets you start treatment immediately and pay for it later.

Free Rehab

Most states offer free alcohol and drug rehabs through public mental health and addiction treatment centers. These centers often provide detox, intensive outpatient programs (IOPs), residential treatment, partial hospitalization programs (PHPs), and support groups. You must meet certain requirements in order to qualify for free alcohol and drug rehabs, such as lack of income and insurance.

Medicaid Accepted

Medicaid will cover at least some, if not all, of the associated costs for detox and alcohol or drug rehab in Illinois. Since Medicaid is not accepted by every treatment provider, be sure to speak with your insurance provider to confirm your benefits and the coverage details before entering a treatment program.

Self-Pay Options

Self-pay options, also known as private pay, are common when paying for drug rehab in Illinois. As the name suggests, you are paying for treatment out-of-pocket. Examples of private pay include paying in cash, writing a check, taking out a personal or medical loan, credit card payments, and more.

Sliding Scale Payment

Many alcohol and drug rehabs in Illinois offer sliding scale payment plans for clients who cannot otherwise afford to pay for treatment. You'll need to fill out an application and, upon acceptance, the rehab will work with you to develop a payment plan based on your income.
