Our Alcohol and Drug Addiction Rehab Center Services in Chicago

Our Chicago North River outpatient programs include a wide range of services that treat the mind and body. We combine evidence-based approaches to drug rehabilitation with holistic wellness practices to help you progress through recovery. As one of our patients, you will go to multiple therapy sessions every week. These sessions may incorporate treatments such as:

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy: With our short-term cognitive behavioral therapy, patients learn how to change their thinking, beliefs and values to face challenges, overcome drug or alcohol addiction and prevent relapse. 
  • Dialectical behavioral therapy: Because some behaviors, thoughts and emotions can contribute to addiction, dialectical behavioral therapy works to identify and modify these factors through a personalized treatment plan. 
  • Motivational Interviewing: Motivational Interviewing (MI) helps patients get engaged in their recovery process. By focusing on the positive results of sobriety, patients will be more motivated to make a change in their life. 
  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on being mindful and accepting realities. This approach makes it possible for patients to move forward and take action toward recovery.
  • Dual diagnosis services: For co-occurring disorders, we develop dual diagnosis treatment plans that target both issues at the same time.
  • Medication-Assisted Treatment: Our drug treatment center offers Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) to make the withdrawal transition easier. Before being prescribed any medications, patients receive a medical exam.
  • Mindfulness-Based Sobriety: Unlike other treatments, Mindfulness-Based Sobriety focuses on the present. As part of this evidence-based treatment, patients join addiction treatment programs tailored to their specific needs.
  • Trauma therapy: No matter if a patient is dealing with acute, chronic or complex trauma, they can join a Seeking Safety program. For patients who also require therapy for substance addiction, we offer a Dual Diagnosis Enhanced Treatment.
  • 12-Step Facilitation: Through our Twelve-Step Facilitation (TSF) model, patients get involved in a fellowship (TSF Manual) designed to reduce subsequent use. 

We will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan that includes services that fit your needs. As you go through recovery, we will adapt your care strategy to change with you.

Programs at our Illinois Alcohol and Drug Addiction Treatment Centers

At Gateway Chicago River North, we specialize in outpatient services. The program models we offer at our facility include:

  • Outpatient rehabilitation: Because there is no accommodation involved, outpatient rehabilitation gives patients the flexibility of scheduling treatment whenever works best with their schedules. Therapy services include everything from cognitive behavioral therapy to Motivational Interviewing to addiction recovery support groups.
  • Partial hospitalization: With partial hospitalization, patients receive a full day of individualized therapy, treatment and support and then return to their home each evening. 
  • Intensive outpatient: Through our intensive outpatient program (IOP), patients receive intensive treatments and recovery services without giving up their entire daily routine. 
  • Addiction recovery community: Continuing to be involved with our treatment center encourages lasting recovery. Our addiction recovery alumni regularly meet for gatherings, community events and speaker jams.

If you need a more extensive drug treatment program, we also provide inpatient and residential options at some of our other Chicago, Illinois locations. We welcome you to contact us or visit us for an intake so we can help you find the path that’s right for you.
