About Franciscan Saint Margaret Behavioral Health

Franciscan Behavioral Health Dyer offers behavioral health services in Dyer, Indiana, to address every aspect of chemical dependency problems.

Medical briefcase icon 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.

inpatient iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

Persons who require high-level support but who do not wish to leave their homes or communities may enroll in an intensive outpatient program (IOP). Clients typically commit to a minimum of nine treatment hours across three therapeutic sessions per week, but many programs offer up to 20 hours of care weekly. Most intensive outpatient rehabs provide a combination of psychotherapy, recovery education, and holistic care. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is widely available for those in alcohol or opioid recovery.

aftercare iconAftercare

Clients receiving support in a rehab aftercare program have completed inpatient care and may also be preparing to exit formal outpatient care. Outpatient services are typically categorized as rehab aftercare, but these services often continue beyond the cessation of formal treatment. Rehab aftercare services are designed to promote life-long recovery through comprehensive, wraparound care, which may include medical, mental health, and social services. These programs are usually created in collaboration with the client's case manager and care team.

12-step icon12-Step

12 step programs foster participants' long-term sobriety through personal growth rooted in spiritual principles, though religious affiliation is not mandatory. Most 12 step meetings are non-denominational but are based on the belief in a higher power. Participants learn to understand and address the causes of their addiction, accept responsibility for their choices, and relinquish control for that which cannot be changed. Regular group meetings and mentoring by a self-selected sponsor are required.

partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) can provide intensive rehab on a short-term basis. While PHP treatment typically requires a commute, telehealth may be available. PHP treatment costs can vary but are often covered by most insurance. The program duration can vary to meet your specific needs and require you to meet for a minimum of 20 hours a week for an average of 90 days. PHP Treatment services often include relapse prevention strategies, medication management, individual and group counseling, and other behavioral therapy interventions.

24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care

When you receive 24-hour clinical care in Indiana, you'll be under constant supervision from highly trained medical staff. Nurses, doctors, and addiction specialists provide medications and other treatment to address withdrawal symptoms and any additional medical needs. Common medications that are prescribed include valium and Librium to relieve alcohol withdrawal, and anti-depressants to relieve cocaine withdrawal. For opioid abuse, doctors may prescribe methadone or naltrexone to manage cravings and clonidine to treat high blood pressure.

check iconDual Diagnosis

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

mental-health iconMental Health

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.

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

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.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

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.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

Motivational interviewing aims to stimulate the client's personal motivation and commitment to change. Rather than receive advice and warnings from the therapist, the client is given the opportunity to share their concerns and reach their own conclusions.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

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.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

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.

eye-movement iconEye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapeutic approach in Indiana that uses an eight phase protocol to address trauma and the symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder. It helps you reprocess traumatic memories and reduces your emotional distress, using a desensitization process to promote overall mental health.

family iconFamily Therapy

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.

medical-detox iconExperiential Therapy

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

nicotine iconNicotine Replacement Therapy

Feelings of withdrawal and intense cigarette cravings make quitting smoking difficult. Nicotine replacement therapy can double your chances of long term success. This therapy provides a small amount of nicotine, so you can slowly wean yourself off this addictive substance.

Highly recommend. I imagine if you are reading this review that you are looking for care for yourself or a loved one. When I was recently in that position, I was scared to death. The staff are kind and understanding. Once I got to visit my loved one there I was put at ease and felt confident we were getting the help and support we needed. They have a schedule that they stick to, which is a great variety of therapy, meeting with a psychiatrist, and group therapy. We got sent home with resources and a direction of help to improve our situation. I am thankful.

I was admitted may of 2023 and November of 2023, both times they would not communicate with my parents about how I was doing and when I would be discharged.Once I got to the php portion of getting help the communication got even worse. Once I was signed up to start, my mother was told to cancel three weeks worth of therapy because I was meant to be in php for at least two weeks. I was in php for no longer than a single week, my mother was unaware of when I would be discharged from this part until the day of discharge. I was unable to reschedule my canceled appointments and went without help for the rest of the year, causing my me tal health to plummet. I later found out the reason they practically kicked me out is because I knew one of the patients there.Do not send your kids here, they do NOT communicate and they don t care about your child s mental health, no matter how much they try to reassure you that they do.Edit: I m also trans, and once I told both sections my preferred name they refused to use it, causing more distress during my time in the hospital. They weren t being ignorant since I explained to the nurses I interacted with how I feel about it, they just didn t care.

You will be rushed out even if the primary doctor demands you need to be there. And if you return after a suicide attempt don t expect them to help. The nurses hugged me and was angry that they were sending me home because they knew I needed help. If you feel suicidal go to St. Catherine, they actually helped me. I was hospitalized here after struggling for 3 years of post Covid issues that led to a mental breakdown. I told them I wasn t ready to leave and they kept saying I was just trying to stay there because I felt safe. I WAS DEALING WITH A 3 YEAR BATTLE!! Of course I felt safe and needed to feel safe going home. The meds made me feel suicidal and when I come back for help after an attempt you throw me out and tell me to deal with it? Even though my doctor demanded me to be there for help? I am so lucky my friends helped me find help. How many suicide cases would have been avoided if you didn t reject them and make them feel like they were just seeking attention? Shame on you.

I had a breakdown and ended up admitting myself to them. The staff really helped me. Ross, Kathy, April and Kaylen were extraordinary. Dr. Cates is impeccable and understood my situation from the moment we spoke. If you are having debilitating mental health issues, you won't find a better place in NWI. Overall, it was quite the experience. While difficult, if you do the work, you will be rewarded.

Poor to no communication. You have one initial consultation then they do not call or return calls to provide updates on your child s progress/treatment.

I stayed here from a thurs-mon. EVERYONE I had dealt with (which was quiet a bit lol) was very awesome! They made me feel welcomed and did the best to address my concerns. I would give 5 stars if on weekends they had more groups for the people that come through. But the workers def 5 stars, I was secretly freaked out what I was walking into, but fear went out window real quick. Thank you for being awesome u all that I met!! U rock!! so if u go in, plz be nice lol u have nothing to worry about.
