KANZA Mental Health and Guidance Center is a private not-for-profit agency licensed by the Kansas Department of Aging and Disability Services as a participating community mental health center.

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.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

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. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

The length, intensity, setting, and treatment methods vary for each drug rehab in Kansas. Plans of care can be tailored to meet each person's own unique situation and needs. With the right program, individuals can successfully achieve long-term sobriety.

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 and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

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.

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.

dialectical iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

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.

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.

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.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

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.

Doctors are so self-centered, they really don't know how to treat patients, their focus is showing how "knowledgeable" they are.

If I had the option to NOT give a star I wouldn t. Personally from my perspective as an employee and seeing consumers sides i HIGHLY would not recommend this place for employment or to seek services. The lack of communication, lots of turnover, and the audacity. When you try to report an incidental cause to HR, they say it s not reportable but then the next day the other individual can report without any problem. They lose good employees who do their job and keep the old ones that talk around making it a drama filled environment. As a mental health facility, you d think they would have you back own their own employees mental health, ABSOLUTELY WRONG. They don t care. You hear one thing from your supervisor then you hear something else from someone else and you never know who is right. Lots of micromanaging with this company unfortunately. It s sad to say it s never got any better since I ve been there. It s like playing telephone with a bunch of grown a$$ adults. From receiving services from here, i recommend going elsewhere even if this company is closer. Definitely worth the drive to go somewhere else. The scheduling department don t do their job (supposedly) which falls back on us because I look bad. Nothing gets done, it takes weeks to hear back from upper management and sometimes they don t even update you. Upper management gets better with their team even if they may be trying. Who knows just trying to save someone going thru this hassle if they read this review. even tho you may be a great employee, you have to be upper management s favorite or on good terms to be employed for 2+ years. When it comes to over time, the company throws the biggest fit to remind you that it s not allowed unless approved by supervisor but the most important thing I want to worry about is if my client is taking well care of. Upper management rather not hear the situation. They just keep their door shut mostly all day and keep to themselves. You can not trust anyone to rant too even tho they recommend it because from their- it gets around the building. Good luck to ya!

This place is a joke. I figured after 25 years things would change so I signed my daughter up for services. The therapist can only see her maybe 1 time every 4-6 weeks. The social worker just tells you to call the hot line. 90% of the time the hot line is on a busy signal and then when they have you come in for a crisis you have to wait hours to be seen. After a year you would think that they would have worked on the behavioral issues but things are actually getting worse. They don't communicate with the parents and I will we switching places for treatment. If you are wanting guidance with a child DO NOT TAKE THEM HERE. they are also fast to hospitalize the child switch there meds in the hospital and then put them right back on the meds that are not working once discharged. Constantly cancel appointments and are just a waste of time. I wish I could give 0 stars.
