About The Way Back Inn – Maywood
You’ll find The Way Back Inn in Maywood, Illinois, just 15 minutes outside of Chicago. This CARF accredited rehab has provided a continuum of care for adults and youth aged 13 to 17 since 1958. Whether you need ongoing support or can live at home and attend treatment, they have an option for you.
Their recovery programs include extended residential care, an intensive outpatient track, standard outpatient treatment, and recovery homes. They strive to meet you at any recovery stage, providing holistic and proven therapeutic interventions for addiction. Group and individual therapy, yoga, 12-Step programming, art therapy, didactic groups, and more are available. These approaches can help you build essential coping skills to support your recovery journey.
What stands out most to me is they offer gambling disorder treatment. They’re one of the only facilities in Illinois to provide multiple levels of care, including a long-term residential program, for gambling addiction. I think this is great because while often overlooked, gambling can be just as detrimental as substances to your overall wellbeing. You’ll benefit from compassionate care to get to the root of your addiction and change your behaviors.
Another feature that caught my eye was their daily life skills activities. In their residential program, you can practice cooking, housekeeping, budgeting, and maintaining a work-life balance. They ensure you gain the tools for independent living and gaining financial literacy. That way you can become self sufficient to promote sustained recovery.
I also think it’s nice that they provide family groups. Anyone who has been affected by a loved one’s addiction can seek support and guidance in their weekly family sessions. They offer process oriented therapy to help your loved ones understand addiction and recovery. Your family and friends will benefit from learning to support you and themselves throughout this journey.
