Sandra Eskenazi Mental Health Center- 3171 N. Meridian

Sandra Eskenazi Mental Health Center – Thomas P. Stitt Building provides outpatient care for adults struggling with substance use issues, dually diagnosed mental health conditions and compulsive gambling behaviors. It’s located on North Meridian Street in Indianapolis just three miles north of downtown.

They also help children and adolescents tackle mental issues that impact their emotional wellbeing. The facility also offers harm reduction services including overdose lifeline NaloxBox, fentanyl test strips and xylazine test strips. They’re one of several Eskenazi Health’s network of facilities delivering low-cost healthcare for underserved communities across Marion County in Indiana.

They accept Medicaid, Medicare and several commercial insurances. They also offer a sliding fee scale for patients without insurance or with limited financial resources.

The clinic offers substance use and mental health assessment, individualized treatment planning and clinically appropriate care. They offer medication-assisted treatment or MAT for clients dealing with opioid addiction, alcoholism and stimulant use. MAT is a proven technique that uses FDA-approved meds alongside counseling to support lasting abstinence. The clinic prescribes Suboxone and Methadone to help you manage withdrawal symptoms and curb physiological cravings. You’ll also attend individual, group and family therapy to handle underlying issues and build practical coping skills to prevent relapse.

Clients struggling with dual diagnosis also receive psychiatric support such as medication management and monitoring. The clinic can also help you handle cannabis and hallucinogenic misuse and problem gambling. Gambling may co-occur with substance dependence if you use drugs/alcohol to cope with gambling losses or enhance gambling thrills.
Skilled counselors will assist you in breaking this cycle by addressing both issues simultaneously. It’s all about helping you regain control of your life. You may even access smoking and tobacco cessation services here or via referral to clinics within their network.

Pregnant women in recovery benefit from tailored and holistic care via a specialized program called Circles of Recovery for Families. This family-focused program blends prenatal, intrapartum and postpartum care with primary care and substance use recovery. It also includes treatment for psychiatric conditions.
