Gateway Foundation offers outpatient substance use and co-occurring mental health disorder treatment for adults. They have a Springfield, Illinois, location on Adlai Stevenson Drive.
The facility is a BlueDistinction Center with BlueCross BlueShield of Illinois. They also accept Aetna, Cigna, and Health Alliance. They may accept other insurance as well.
The outpatient program is a comprehensive substance use treatment program. They have a partial hospitalization program (PHP), an intensive outpatient program (IOP), and traditional outpatient care.
The PHP is a structured program that meets every day for several hours. It’s a good followup program if you’ve recently graduated from an inpatient program. It’s also a good option if you need a highly structured program but can’t do an inpatient treatment program.
You’ll participate in group and individual therapy sessions. Some of the therapy modalities include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) where you’ll learn to overcome negative thinking patterns. There are routine evaluations from medical professionals who will adjust your program if necessary.
The PHP also includes medical support for detox. If you need medication for co-occurring mental health disorders like depression or anxiety, you can get that in the PHP as well. You’ll be able to live at home while attending the program.
The IOP is also an outpatient program that allows you to live at home while attending. The nice thing about the IOP is that you can work or go to school while in the program because it’s more flexible. You’ll attend group and individual therapy and also participate in recreational activities.
The traditional outpatient care program is much more flexible and less restrictive. You’ll meet with a therapist about once a week. You’ll see a psychiatrist once a month for medication management if you need to.
The center also offers support groups. These groups help you continue your sober journey by equipping you with the tools you need to face your personal challenges. Support groups are led by a licensed therapist. Some groups are age- or gender-specific. Some groups are focused on substance use care.

Accepted Insurance
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.
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning.

Among those with substance abuse problems, the most common co-occurring mental health problems include depression, anxiety and trauma-related issues.

Gateway treats dual diagnosis through comprehensive drug rehab programs that use proven, or "evidence-based" approaches and best practices.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one).

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.
Motivational Interviewing has strong scientific support for being a highly effective therapy for those with a substance abuse problem. Instead of trying to convince an individual of the benefits of stopping substance abuse, Gateway Alcohol & Drug Treatment's professional counselors help each person weigh the pros of this behavior against the cons while in drug rehab. Counselors assist individuals in exploring their core values and deeply held goals. These values and goals are usually inconsistent with continued substance abuse, so they become the guiding force toward behaving in a way that is consistent with positive, healthy living.
If you or someone you care about has experienced or witnessed a life-threatening event and is abusing alcohol or drugs to ease painful memories, trauma may be the primary driver of substance abuse. Rather than avoiding the issue, Gateway Treatment Centers can help individuals work through traumatic events and instill in them a sense of resilience with our personalized approach. Through integrated treatment, trauma victims may simultaneously addresses addiction and mental health concerns with trauma-specific treatment approaches to meet individual needs.
Life skills training in Illinois gives you the tools you need to meet daily demands. These fall into three main categories: personal skills, interpersonal skills, and cognitive skills. While in rehab, you'll work on each of these areas as part of your recovery treatment.
