About Northern Illinois Recovery Center
Located in Crystal Lake, Illinois, the Northern Illinois Recovery Center offers addiction treatment to teens and adults who are suffering from drug and alcohol addictions. They also offer dual diagnosis services which means that they treat mental health in addition to addiction. They specialize in a complete spectrum of care that includes detox services, a residential program, a partial hospitalization program, an intensive outpatient program and a standard outpatient program. They also have a sober living program.
When it comes to their detox service, they offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT). This can help in big ways by using medication to minimize the intensity of cravings and avoid any dangerous withdrawal symptoms. MAT services are provided in conjunction with therapy to treat the physical and psychological aspects of addiction.
Their residential program has room for 16 clients and allows them to access many services such as individual counseling, group therapy and family therapy in a safe, sober environment. This can help them identify triggers and learn coping skills. They offer these services in their outpatient programs as well.
They also use cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to treat their patients. They also offer more niche services like gambling addiction therapy. You’ll have medication management to make things easier for you and you’ll learn the practices of the 12 Step Program.
I like that you’ll also have access to more holistic treatment options like art therapy, music therapy and yoga. This is a great way to not only work on recovering from addiction but on cultivating your joy and brain health as well.

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.
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.

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.

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.
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.
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 provides you with a safe and supportive environment so you can address a traumatic experience. Your therapist helps guide you to understand your emotional, mental, and physical responses while developing healthier coping skills. This helps to improve your emotional resilience and ability to function in the community.
Eye Movement Desensitization And ReprocessingA therapist who specializes in creative arts therapy in Illinois helps you communicate your feelings through expressive activities such as painting, music, or acting. Skill in the art form is not required to benefit from this type of therapy.
Both inpatient and outpatient substance use disorder treatment programs may offer experiential therapy in Illinois. This method is often provided in addition to talk therapy. It offers opportunities for creative expression and reflection on emotions through activities such as adventure courses, animal care, music, or culinary arts.
