It's basically impossible to make an appointment, whenever you get to make it the service isn't that bad.
About Genesis Counseling Services Ltd
Genesis Counseling Services is an outpatient mental health and addiction treatment clinic in downtown Janesville, Wisconsin. They see people of all ages. They employ nurse practitioners, mental health counselors and clinical psychologists. In this type of setting, you’ll usually meet with your treatment providers about once a month, but that could be adjusted depending on your needs.
This clinic has a few notable advantages. The variety of professionals allows them to treat mental health and substance use disorders holistically. This is important because substance use rarely exists in isolation from other mental health problems. At this clinic you can have all of your mental health needs addressed together. You can engage with one counselor for individual counseling, and then another for couples counseling. You can get your prescriptions managed by a nurse practitioner. Iif you need psychological testing for conditions like ADHD or autism, you can find that here too.
Another advantage of this clinic is their availability. They’re open from 8 am to 8 pm and are available on Saturdays if needed. This is great for people who have trouble taking time away from work to get treatment.
They take most major private insurance plans, Medicare and Medicaid.
Latest Reviews
Their resident nurse is insanely condescending and demeaning in verbiage. The one "therapist" I interacted with is mostly concerned with describing their personal life rather than helping another adult.This is truly a lame-duck operation. If you really need help, call someone else.
Ive been going to Genesis for several years now. I started with one therapist who had to step down due to family matters. I see Tiffany S now and highly recommend her. I have made such huge progress in the time seeing her that it's been unbelievable to see where I came from to now. The front desk is awesome as well. Four stars is simply because I know my husband went to see a therapist there who was really awful. Basically if a therapist isn't the right fit, try someone else in the organization.
Front desk is always fabulous. My therapist is there for me when I need her.

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.
Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.
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.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.
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.
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.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Outpatient 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.
Intensive Outpatient Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) support clients' return to their community following inpatient treatment and may also offer an alternative to hospitalization for clients who are relatively stable following detox. Many intensive outpatient rehabs require clients to participate in a minimum of nine and a maximum of 20 treatment hours weekly. IOP services are also highly customizable and typically include a combination of addiction counseling, recovery-focused life skills training, medication assisted treatment (MAT), and holistic therapies such as meditation.
Aftercare Support Rehab aftercare programs support clients' long-term recovery through highly customized wraparound care aligned with clients' evolving needs. Most have been sober for a period of weeks or longer and have completed intensive inpatient rehab but may be receiving outpatient care. Many clients also receive services after being discharged from formal treatment. Long-term care plans are typically developed in collaboration with the client's case manager and care team and may include peer coaching, relapse prevention, and related services.
Treatments
Treatment for alcohol use disorder (AUD) is available in several formats and levels of care. The treatment process address various issues that contribute to a dependence on alcohol (often referred to as alcoholism). Alcohol rehab in Wisconsin provides the tools and supports you'll need to overcome AUD and maintain long-term sobriety.
The goal of drug rehab in Wisconsin is to address drug addiction as a complex issue that involves physical, mental, and relational aspects. During rehab, treatment focuses on each of these areas and gives you the tools you need to achieve and maintain sobriety.
Dual-diagnosis treatment programs in Wisconsin can provide substance abuse treatment for individuals facing addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders. You can usually find treatment to suit your individual needs, whether that is inpatient, outpatient, or day treatment. These programs utilize evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based interventions to help you relearn new thought patterns, develop new coping strategies, and learn the skills to maintain recovery.
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
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.
The word dialectical describes the foundation of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Meaning "opposite," the word refers to the treatment's focus on both acceptance and change. While learning to accept where you are and the emotions you're feeling, you also learn to grow and change to establish healthier patterns in your life.
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.
When conducting motivational interviewing in Wisconsin, therapists engage with their clients as equal partners. They don't provide unsolicited advice or confront clients. Instead, they ask questions and listen, with the goal of empowering clients to recognize any need for change and their ability to make those changes.
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.
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.
Addiction treatment in Wisconsin emphasizes life skills training to help you relearn critical capabilities for day to day life. This training helps you build healthy, positive strategies for everything from self care, to career, to interpersonal relationships.
An experiential therapy approach allows clients to address their pain through doing and relating rather than only talking about it. Examples of this approach include equine therapy, adventure therapy, music, gardening, and martial arts.
