I had an experience I was to ashamed to share around 7 years ago, with Sharon M as a counselor. I wound up losing my son at a time when I was most certainly fighting for my life on more than one front. She refused to testify in Dcfs court and I had to establish a new counselor, she was probably one of the first major failings that violated my right civilly and as a human and mother. Reading the comments just further solidifies the fact that she was a gateway for Dcfs to legally steal, sell, and use my child and my life as a means to an end. I hope you all feel what awful human beings you are when you look in the mirror, or look at your own family. People shouldn t be abandoned by their counselors the second Dcfs gets involved, y all should be ashamed.

I mean the reviews speak for themselves.. it s sad that a place trusted to unite families together would still be able to operate after so many negative experiences. They should be investigated internally to see what s really going on. It seems to me they don t actually want to unite families back together and would rather put children into foster care with complete strangers. They should never be allowed to do this. Let alone around the holidays. Sick and cruel.

Accepted Insurance

Counseling and Family Services works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Treatments

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

Programs

Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

Family Core is twisted in the game of politics. They tear healthy, loving families apart and use the kids as pawns to get a paycheck from the State.

This place is horrible. They take children out of good homes for no reason at all. Not right at all.

The absolute worst. The will deliberately lie under oath and yet call the parent deceitful. Very sad how they keep families apart for a paycheck and not follow their own policies. They have concerns but will not tell you what they are. They will lie about your records even though their name is tied to the documents. Sad identical service plan from Family Core case in Peoria county was used in another state and I got my child back out of state, but caseworker used manipulation and lies to get my rights terminated to my children. They refused to get DNA test for my children s father after he asked repeatedly for it so he could do services and see his girls. They all need psychological evaluations themselves as the caseworker I have liked to talk about she wished her baby daddy was locked up for child support. Do your job and help people not destroy what they are struggling to get back. I would never recommend this place to my worst enemy. They will lie on other caseworkers from different agencies with no actual proof of what is being said to be true. If you can prove they are lying in court seriously talk to the state s attorney s office and go after them for contempt. All they is criminals and take parents to court at a civil level. Fight for criminal charges and prosecution if you can prove your caseworker has lied. You fight for your kids, fight for the injustice of the criminal activity this agency does to your families.

They do NOT KNOW how to use a phone you call or text your caseworker and she never answers or texts you back .This is no way to treat children in care or foster parents who have opened their homes. The children did nothing to be in this situation and as a group we (foster parents and agency) are supposed to be here for the children! I only gave 1star because it made me. This is unacceptable
