This facility accepts Medicaid and offers financial assistance depending on qualifications. They also accept cash, credit and debit card payment.

When seeking services for yourself or a loved one it can feel overwhelming and unclear as to what next steps should be taken to get the best level of care.

Once this is completed they will provide an evaluation of what would be the most appropriate treatment for you.

They provide individual, group and family therapy. This is to help you learn to manage emotions, develop stronger communication skills, boost self confidence and improve your relationships with your loved ones. During these sessions they will also provide alternative holistic coping tools and tools to help you manage emotions. This helps you get a better perspective on your journey and the progress you are making.

MAT as well as medication management are available. The appropriateness of these treatments will be assessed after speaking with the medical staff and counselors. When transitioning your old lifestyle into a new lifestyle, medication may be suggested to help manage conditions and help stabilize you. The MAT program helps with easing the impact of chemical dependency to reduce cravings and combat withdrawals.

This place literally said that they "don't treat behaviors"When I tried to get help for my son why are they called Park view "behavioral" health? Not only is this extremely confusing and frustrating. It's false advertising. Zero stars if I could

A year ago, this lady gave my group stickers and said "Write the word STOP on these stickers and put them all over your house, to remind yourself to stop repetitive thoughts."Those cheap stickers looked terrible after a month, and they're impossible to remove cleanly. Now I look even more insane to guests & visitors, with nasty sticker residue on my car dashboard.Toxic positivity is not the answer.

HORRIBLE LIFE CHANGING TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCE! Have a felony on my record because of this awful place!!! I was admitted here after having a mental breakdown from work. I have never been in trouble or had mental health issues. Was abused on checkin with the "safety officers" trying to handcuff me to the bed. They twisted my wrists in the constraints the oppose direction causing very much pain. The two safety officers stated I assaulted them. How do you expect someone to act when you are abusing them? I ended up with a level 5 felony! They let me leave the facility and found out later I had a warrant out for my arrest. I was arrested in Colorado and extradited to Indiana and spent 90 days in jail. Hello, do you not have training to treat people with compassion and respect? Why did you let me leave if I had a warrant? While there, I had zero sessions with anyone. Begged to leave after a week as there was a lot of abuse being done to patients with 'safety officers' being called. Most unprofessional incompetent place I have every experienced!!!! Now I have a felon on my record because of their incompetence. After getting out of jail, had none of my anti-depressant meds I was given in jail. Probation officer said they would give me some until I can get into the doctor. Front desk person knew exactly why I was there and said this was something they do. After meeting with the "expert" they stated they don't do this. They were zero help in a desperate situation. Incompetent people in this god awful place. Was assured I would not be billed for the inconvenience; however, battling a bill of 900 bucks. PLEASE DO NOT SUBJECT YOURSELF TO THIS ABUSE AND INCOMPETENT STAFF! YOU WILL LEAVE WITH MORE TRAUMA TO DEAL WITH!!

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

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.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.
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.
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.
heart-hands iconIntervention Services
When families plan a drug intervention in Indiana, the goal is to create self-awareness in their loved one, so they acknowledge the need for treatment and get help. A professional interventionist can work with the individual's family members to organize this intervention and provide direction for follow-up. During the intervention, loved ones share how the individual's substance abuse has affected them, and the interventionist adds a clinical perspective on how treatment can help the situation.

Treatments

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.

For long-term recovery from drug addiction, drug rehab in Indiana is often key. This treatment gives individuals who are struggling with a substance use disorder the tools to manage their disorder and achieve long-term sobriety.

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.

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.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
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 thumbnail image
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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.

Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.

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.

During trauma therapy in Indiana, your therapist helps you process traumatic experiences and learn how they affect your emotional, mental, and physical responses. You learn effective coping strategies that help to reduce the symptoms and improve your mental health and well being.

My child had a stay with them, they were severely inconsistent with everything. Charting didn t match what they were saying. Allowed a young child to stay up super late drink caffeine and not prepare him to come home for school and a normal life. I would not recommend them at all.

If I could rate this zero, I would. They just drug you up. The doctors don't even care about conflicting medicines. Abilify and Prozac should NEVER be taken together and they sent my friend home and lo and behold she had to go right back. They claim she's pchizophrenic when she's NEVER shown any history of pchizophrenia until she started abilify. SHE IS BIPOLAR. I've noticed a general increase in abilify prescriptions in the fort Wayne area as of June 2024 as well. That's not a coincidence. Awful place. Go to park center. Useless facility.

Very unprofessional! NO HELP.. Nick the main counselor for adolescence carries a very narcissistic I'm better than you attitude. I'm not sure who put him in charge of anything but he's more harm than help. Your program sucks and you are absolutely no help to our teens! My daughter willingly went and was kicked out of the out patient program with in two weeks for failing drug test. Nothing was said to me about the first fail and on the second fail he kicked her out. She has did nothing but talk about you and your narcissistic ways since! Don't send your kid here and shame on your program! We need help not harm. In a very polite way I hope non of you have to go through what we went through. DONT SEND YOUR KID HERE!

Worst institution I have ever stayed at. No communication on your care, will just sedate you with haldol and benzos until they feel like you re better. They wanted to keep me for 11 days, they let me leave after 72 hours after I asked to leave AMA. This place made my situation even worse, sitting in the bathroom slamming my head against the wall, which is something I have never done before in my life until I stayed here. I was a voluntary admit, but I wish I could go back in time and never stayed here. I m worse off mentally now because this place scarred me. Do not take your loved ones here. They only care about the cash flow they get from mentally ill people, not getting those people better.
