AMITA Health Center for Mental Health

Struggling with addiction and mental health challenges combined can be isolating, but AMITA Health Center for Mental Health in Palatine, Illinois made sure you were never alone in your fight. With a compassionate whole-person approach, AMITA Health offered a ton of support services for those who are seeking care for behavioral addictions, co-occuring mental health conditions, and substance use disorders. Plus, they had options for anyone who is in an immediate crisis and seeking instant support. They’re now closed, but there are still numerous treatment centers in the area that can help you.

Addiction is complex and no two people who are looking to get sober will have the same recovery journeys. That’s why AMITA Health took a personalized approach to treatment and addressed addictions in all forms, from alcohol and drug dependency to behavioral addictions like shopping, gaming and gambling.

The team of doctors they had at their health center stayed updated on the latest evidence-based therapies, so patients were always receiving the most updated and accurate care. Plus, patients had access to medication-assisted treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy and detox if needed.

There were a few other things that patients had access to at AMITA Health Center, like partial-day treatment programs, 24/7 mental health emergency care for crises and intensive inpatient programs that provided a structured approach to recovery.

AMITA Health Center didn’t just offer substance abuse support for adults. They also offered it for teens who were struggling with substance abuse. The adolescent program offered by AMITA Health Center did more than just focus on getting a teen sober from substances. There was a heavy focus on life skills, academic support and behavioral therapy to help develop healthy coping mechanisms for stress that were involved in this program too.
