Silver Oaks Behavioral Hospital

About Silver Oaks Behavioral Hospital – New Lenox, Illinois

Silver Oaks Behavioral Hospital offers acute treatment for mental health and behavioral health concerns including substance use. You can find them on the Silver Cross Hospital campus in New Lenox, Illinois.

They offer inpatient chemical detox and specialized addiction programs for adults and pregnant or new mothers. While their addiction treatment primarily serves adults, they also have mental health programs for teenagers and older adults.

Something great about Silver Oaks is that they help you connect with people experiencing similar challenges to you. In group therapy sessions, you and other patients will discuss recovery under the guidance of a trained addiction therapist. You’ll learn helpful coping mechanisms, analyze healthy and unhealthy behavior patterns, and share in a safe and educational environment.

Process groups are slightly more informal gatherings which also give you the chance to share with similar patients. These sessions focus more on sharing your personal feelings and experiences and encouraging each other.

They use several treatment modalities in individual and group therapy sessions here, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). The CBT techniques used in Silver Oaks focus on teaching you to manage your thoughts so that they positively influence your moods and behaviors. You’ll learn to work through unhelpful thoughts in real time, aiding your sobriety journey.

Their DBT techniques are similar, but place more emphasis on emotional regulation and mindfulness. Your therapist will teach you methods for tolerating discomfort and distress without turning to substance use as a coping mechanism.
