About Nicasa Behavioral Health Services
Nicasa Behavioral Health Services in Waukegan, Illinois, is a social service agency that provides behavioral health supports to men and women. They also provide services if you're ready to start treatment for a substance use disorder. Care is offered in an outpatient treatment setting, though you can get referred to their residential treatment program if you need more robust care. This is a compassionate care facility that provides services to individuals of all backgrounds including members of the LGBTQ community.
When you first seek treatment here, you’ll work with a care team that will take the time to understand your unique recovery needs. They'll put together an individualized treatment plan that consists of evidence based therapies. With supports like cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy, you'll learn skills for success. For example, you’ll learn how to identify triggers that have contributed to your substance use. You'll also learn how to manage stressful emotions that lead to thoughts of addiction and relapse.
There are also family advocacy and support groups as well. Through family counseling, your loved ones will learn how to best support you on your path to recovery. You'll also find a slew of life skills classes such as parent education classes, prevention programs, and other supports.
You can get connected to more robust resources if you need them. This may include residential treatment or supportive housing through a halfway house. Through this continuum of care, you'll be supported in the way you need as you move toward a sober future.
