About Sims-Kemper Clinical Counseling & Recovery Services

As the state capital of Kansas, Topeka is known for its pivotal role in the Civil Rights movement and school desegregation. The city is also the home of Sims-Kemper Clinical Counseling and Recovery Services which facilitates outpatient addiction treatment, gambling treatment, DUI assessments and DUI classes for adults and teens.

The clinic accepts Medicaid, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and other insurance plans. They have outside funding that may cover some services as well as a sliding scale of fees for those who qualify. I noticed that there are no out of pocket costs for the treatment of problem gambling.

Assessments and Treatment for Addiction and DUI in Topeka

Sims-Kemper provides comprehensive assessments that look at your mental health and substance use. They also administer DUI evaluations that are used to determine your DUI class requirements.

They have general outpatient care and intensive outpatient programs (IOPs). The clinic doesn’t offer mental health treatment or residential care but can refer you to an appropriate provider if needed.

Peer Mentoring Services for Recovery Support

Another element of the program that caught my attention is their peer mentoring program. Peers have been through addiction and recovery and can connect you to key community resources that helped them through the process.

Peers also extend encouragement as you go through treatment and can help you feel more comfortable in 12 step or other support groups.
