About Pilsen Wellness Center, Inc. – Chicago
Pilsen Wellness Center is an outpatient mental health and substance use recovery facility in Chicago, Illinois. Their addiction recovery program involves ambulatory detox, medication assisted treatment and opioid maintenance therapy. They even address co-occurring disorders. This is when someone struggles with mental health and substance use disorders. DUI services are also available for clients involved with the criminal justice system.
The facility delivers individualized addiction recovery programs that are culturally sensitive. This means the program is tailored to your unique needs and respects your cultural background, language and beliefs/values. They even provide dedicated services for Latinos or Spanish speakers. Recovery is outcome based, focusing on strengthening family dynamics and fostering community empowerment through individual wellness. Their CARF accreditation validates their commitment to quality care.
Their ambulatory detox lets you receive treatment for withdrawal symptoms on an outpatient basis. This means that you’ll visit the facility regularly for monitoring and medication. This makes it very flexible, unlike medically monitored detox.
Their medication assisted treatment addresses the needs of clients affected by opioid use disorders. This technique uses FDA approved medication alongside counseling to support recovery. The medicine eases withdrawal symptoms, curbs cravings and prevents complications. This enables the client to undergo therapy or counseling.
Their complete program involves individualized assessment, treatment planning and comprehensive case management. Their board-certified physicians provide acute psychiatric intervention, medication training and monitoring. This helps clients with co-occurring conditions manage both their mental health and substance use issues more effectively. Proven therapeutic models like cognitive behavioral therapy are delivered via group and individual counseling. This focuses on developing solid coping and relapse prevention skills via healthier thinking patterns and life skills. You’ll also participate in peer recovery support groups like AA or NA.
Their case management services provide assistance in obtaining public entitlement program benefits and home and hospital visits. They also provide advocacy and support services referrals. Aftercare support may be available upon successful detoxing. Their opioid maintenance therapy offers essentially the same services. This makes sense, considering that it is a specific form of medication assisted treatment that focuses on harm reduction rather than immediate abstinence. Comments from past clients indicate an overall positive experience.
