About Ascension St. Vincent Stress Center

St. Vincent Stress Center provides personalized substance use disorder treatment and mental health treatment to youth, adults, and seniors in Indianapolis, Indiana. They also offer emotional support for those with challenging medical conditions while focusing on mind, body, and spiritual healing.

St. Vincent Stress Center provides mental health care, dual diagnosis treatment, and outpatient treatment programs for all ages.

Outpatient treatment programming is a more flexible approach to addiction treatment that is a step down from Partial Hospitalization Programs and Intensive Outpatient Programs. This service provides continued support for addiction recovery through individual therapy, group therapy, and educational classes on addiction and recovery. Medications may be managed, and for those in need, trauma support may also be offered. The goal is to continue to move toward a life of recovery and a suitable aftercare treatment plan that allows for reintegration back into society. This program is available for seniors, adults, and adolescents who are looking for consistent treatment and help.

Mental health treatment focuses on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and other challenging psychiatric conditions. Individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy all serve as ways to deliver mental health support. These services can be administered in an inpatient setting, within an outpatient setting, or at a clinical office.

Dual Diagnosis, often referred to as having co-occurring disorders, is when two or more mental health concerns present themselves simultaneously. It is very common for those who struggle with addiction to also have an underlying mental health concern such as anxiety, depression, or a diagnosable psychiatric disorder. Without proper treatment of the mental health issue at hand, getting and staying sober can be difficult. By treating both the substance use disorder and the mental health needs concurrently, a greater chance for long term sobriety is achieved.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient programs are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. Their outpatient therapy counselors provide comprehensive outpatient care, and are experienced in, but not limited to: marriage and family counseling, sexual abuse counseling, child custody services, depression counseling, battered wife syndrome therapy, and adoption issues.

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.

sober-living iconSober Living Homes

The number one rule of a sober living home in Indiana is that residents cannot use or bring alcohol or drugs into the home. Breaking this rule typically results in eviction. In addition to this rule, men's and women's sober living homes have other standards that residents must meet. These usually include maintaining a job, helping with meal preparation and house cleaning, and attending 12-step meetings.

partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) can provide intensive rehab on a short-term basis. While PHP treatment typically requires a commute, telehealth may be available. PHP treatment costs can vary but are often covered by most insurance. The program duration can vary to meet your specific needs and require you to meet for a minimum of 20 hours a week for an average of 90 days. PHP Treatment services often include relapse prevention strategies, medication management, individual and group counseling, and other behavioral therapy interventions.

24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care

At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.

Our Policy: Ascension St. Vincent Stress Center works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact us to verify your specific insurance provider.

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

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.

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.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

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.

Eating Disorder Treatment

Eating disorders include anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, and dysfunctional eating patterns. Many psychologists and other mental health professionals consider eating disorders to be food addictions, meaning food is being used in an addictive way (similar to drug or alcohol addiction). Certain substance abuse treatment programs will have treatment for eating disorders as one of the services offered. An eating disorder may also present as a co-occuring disorder or dual diagnosis alongside drug and alcohol addiction.

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.

I just left St. Vincent after the last session in my program. This is the best place to get total control of your body. The staff is great and the patients there really care about one another.

For the most part, everyone has been extremely kind, and helpful. However there is one woman who works at the front desk, who was extremely rude to me and my daughter. We had 15 minutes to wait for her group therapy, and she came over to ask what we were doing there, then explained 3 times we were in the wrong area, without letting me speak.So we moved to the other side, and she continued staring at us, talking with her co-worker, making it obvious she was talking about us. Extremely unprofessional, and uncomfortable for people who struggle with mental health issues.

My experience here was very healing. I was skeptical about the program at first because I had never been to a mental health facility.I was shown extreme kindness and compassion by the staff from the day that I was evaluated, to the day that I graduated.I felt listened to, understood, and cared for. I will never forget how nice the staff treated me. Even the front desk ladies greeted me with a cheery good morning every time I walked in. I felt like I was safe here.I had an amazing therapist and nurse practitioner. They were both truly wonderful at providing me relief and reassurance regarding my mental health.The food and drinks they offered definitely surprised me because of how bad some of the reviews were. I was pleasantly surprised. They also have snack/drink machines and restrooms available at anytime.I met some pretty amazing people during my time here that I will forever be grateful for. I was happy to be placed in the group that I was.Family therapy was another huge thing that I valued. I appreciated the opportunity to be able to have the time with my own family. We all learned a lot.I went through PHP and IOP programs and graduated at the end. I would absolutely recommend this facility to my own friends and family. If you are considering going here, I encourage you to go into this journey with an open mind. It truly saved me on some of my hardest days. Thank you to everyone who helped me and supported me becoming this new version of myself. I am forever thankful!

I was admitted to youth inpatient for a couple days. I ve never been to a mental facility, so I don t know what I should ve or should not have expected. I got there very late at night, so maybe that s the reason why, but I was left confused on what to do. I only had schedule information from the journal. I have anxiety, so I felt ashamed and embarrassed to ask for help. I would ve liked some more information.As for the staff, I tried my best to respect them. Aside from (guess who ) Dr. Fletcher, I feel that they respected me back. I had a very pleasant with what I think was a nurse. One night she came over for her shift and we had a nice talk after watching a bit of The Incredibles.About Dr. Fletchers: I think it happened to everyone. My first visit, I was just barely holding back tears. I was admitted for a suicide attempt, and I was called selfish. I was told that my family would no longer trust me, which I understand, but he tried to suggest that my parents would take my door away in my bedroom. I think that s a bit out of line. I saw every patient come out of his office either crying or feeling worse than they did before. Horrible doctor for a mental facility.The food was nice, it wasn t anything special obviously. We had time to wash up.A couple times when we had time to continue journaling, I got dirty looks. I was apparently being too loud with the girl next to me. I was actually having a bit of fun and feeling comfortable. It slightly made me go back in my shell, but I understand.The hospital seemed clean to me. I was able to get laundry done and have fresh clothes. It didn t smell dirty at all.The isolation rooms made me anxious. I would hear screaming nonstop. I thought it was a bit strange, but then again, I didn t and still don t really know what s normal and abnormal.From my small stay, I d say it s an alright hospital. One takeaway from this is that Dr. Fletcher should not be here anymore.

this was by far the most horrible facility i was ever a patient in. staff told me i was a liar when i wouldn t tell them what the wanted to hear and a nurse told me my scars were ugly. i was told that my suicidal thoughts were going to tear apart my family and make me lose all my friends. i was made to feel guilty about feeling hopeless. the outpatient groups are equally as bad with kids forming friendships and encouraging each other to try new things . i am still in therapy two years later trying to recover from my experience here as all it did was traumatize me. the nurses on the youth unit are extremely rude and uncaring and in my opinion are the last people in the world i would want taking care of a child in crisis. i beg of you find somewhere else because this place needs to be shut down i have no idea how they are still in business.

I went to be evaluated. Because I wasn t suicidal or homicidal I wasn t given the time of day. All I was offered was IOP. I live 2 hours away. I needed to stay there to be put on meds and regulated so I m not in physical pain from my PTSD. It s horrible. They didn t listen to me. All they cared about is that I m not suicidal or homicidal. There is more to mental illness than killing yourself or others. The obese lady who evaluated me was condescending and harsh. I hope she reads this and learns that there is more to it than just being suicidal.

They again lied to me about mental health on a false premise upon entry into the facility and during my stay there. The police beat me while I was under the influence of their junk science injections that caused me to have an adverse reaction.

Words cannot express my gratitude to St. Vincent s Stress Center.I walked into this facility with a multitude of issues and they were all solved to my satisfaction in just under the week.From the initial reception to the final walkthrough, I was treated with Respect, Dignity and the utmost compassion. Everyone from the nursing staff, psychiatry, doctors and social workers.I have dust allergies and I was afraid I would be miserable without my allergy medicine but this facility is very sterile and clean and I did not sneeze once.The food being served is REAL food. It is not the processed junk we re so used to eating.Modern medicine is truely a marvel. They have medication for everything now. I was astonished how quick of a turnaround I felt from my initial entrance.If you trust the system, it works people.God Bless St. Vincent s Stress Center and God Bless every single person that enters that facility day in and day out.

I had my child in there at end of March. 17 years old. Took me years to get him in somewhere. The doctor didn't listen to me at all!! my son is very very smart he knows how to manipulate and the doctor discussed him being released within 4 days of being there he shouldn't of discussed that with him at all. My son's a type 1 diabetic and they wouldn't let him keep his CGM on and only check his blood sugar three times a day when I took him home the day of release his blood sugar was so high it took over fifty units of insulin to get in normal range and several hours. They also put him on medication that I specifically asked if it raises blood sugar they said it didn't after googling it, it does that's one of side affects. They wouldn't keep him longer they didn't help me find anywhere else to keep him longer. They didn't listen to me at ALL. That doctor up there should retire. 1 doctor that's 100 years old. Who doesn't listen to the parents. Everyone was really nice but as far as mental health 0 stars.
