About Clinical Associates PA

Patients of every age, including young children and older adults, are seen at Clinical Associates, an outpatient mental health practice and addiction treatment center in Lenexa.

For substance abuse care, the clinic admits adults and adolescents. Residential treatment and medical detox are not offered at this location.

Court Approved Care

The clinic is an approved provider of substance abuse services for the Johnson County District Court and the District Attorney’s Office. Municipal courts in Lenexa and Overland Park have approved the clinic, as have the courts in Merriam, Shawnee and Olathe.

A person who needs a substance abuse evaluation for one of those courts can have it done by a provider the court has already approved.

Specialized Programs for Adolescents

Clinical Associates offers an outpatient rehab group for adolescents and a separate substance abuse group for adults. Family sessions are included in intensive outpatient treatment, and individual sessions are part of the outpatient program.

Teenagers in their own group are with peers of a similar age, which is the usual arrangement for this kind of care.

The practice was founded in 1992, and its substance abuse providers are Addiction Counselors licensed in Kansas. The clinic also holds certification from the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services for evaluations and treatment.

Accepted Insurance

Please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Clinical Associates PA works with several private insurance providers, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Outpatient treatment here is built on individual and group sessions. An intensive outpatient track, which includes family sessions, is also available.

The intensive outpatient program sits alongside standard outpatient individual and group treatment at this practice. Family sessions are part of it.

Clients in a rehab aftercare program typically have completed intensive inpatient treatment but may be receiving outpatient care. Many have concluded outpatient treatment as well and are in the maintenance phase of their recovery. Rehab aftercare services are designed to provide a full continuum of care as clients apply their recovery skills at home, in the workplace, and in the community. Clients typically receive peer coaching, career counseling, and 12 step recovery program induction, among other services.

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

The length, intensity, setting, and treatment methods vary for each drug rehab in Kansas. Plans of care can be tailored to meet each person's own unique situation and needs. With the right program, individuals can successfully achieve long-term sobriety.

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Drug rehabs in Kansas provide specialized care for individuals looking to overcome substance abuse and addiction. These programs offer a range of care options, including outpatient, inpatient, dual-diagnosis, and partial hospitalization programs. Expert clinicians utilize evidence-based treatments and trauma-informed therapies to address substance abuse and empower individuals in their long-term recovery.

Programs

Adults are served here, as part of a practice that treats every age from young children to older adults.

Young adults are covered too. The practice works with all ages, from young children through older adults.

Clinical Services

Family sessions are part of intensive outpatient treatment here, not an add-on.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

Individual therapy for drug and alcohol addiction treatment provides you with targeted support. Your therapist is able to address the unique aspects and triggers of your addiction so you can develop healthy coping strategies and set achievable goals. These are essential components of a successful journey to recovery.

Intake for the psych eval was quick and staff were kind. After that, coordination and treatment planning broke down. The written evaluation took months to deliver (even with an ROI), delaying meds and higher-level care. Verbal feedback raised personality-pattern concerns, bu ... Read More

I have been going to this practice for years- however I had a lapse in care/treatment because I had a baby and was going through post partum. My baby has finally started sleeping through the night however I haven’t been sleeping since stopping my medication for pregnancy/postpartum as a breastfeeding mother. I recently (a month and a half ago)- called and made an appointment with my provider. My appointment was supposed to be tomorrow and they called me today while I was at work leaving me a voicemail telling me my appointment has been cancelled and to call them back to reschedule. I called them back and was told because it’s been more than 6 months I have to have a 60 minute appointment vs the 30 minute that was scheduled by THEIR staff. I was told it was scheduled by a newer staff member who made a mistake. I asked what they can do to solve this for me as I have already waited a month and a half to be seen by my psychiatrist. They said sorry there was nothing they could do and told me I would have the wait another month as that’s the first 60 minute opening by MY MENTAL HEALTH nurse practitioner. No one offered any sincere apologies. No one offered to message my provider and see what accommodations they can do. None of this was my mistake- yet I feel like I am being punished for another month. I told them I was postpartum and was tearful on the phone and the front desk answering was extremely rude to me to the point where I told her I would take the appointment for next month and she said I’ll get you scheduled and hung up on me. I didn’t even know what time it was on that specific date and didn’t know until she scheduled me and I got a confirmation text on my phone. I’m frustrated by the lack of empathy and customer service they have provide from THEIR mistake- not mine and they couldn’t even offer me a solution. Extremely disappointed- I am just warning others to think twice before choosing Clinical Associates. The providers are great- however the rest of their staff do not know how to talk to their patients or be accommodating.

Talk about barriers to care. My PCP and I were pursuing complete psych testing for Autism, ADHD, the works. Getting in to see the provider the first time was ok. With insurance my copay was reasonable enough. Together we decided on the tests and scheduled for a month out. When I arrived for testing I was informed I would need to pay the $700 co-insurance BEFORE I could receive my results. It was stated that I should have been told when I checked out at the initial consult (I was not) I had scheduled to test in the morning and get the results that afternoon. So un-caffinated, barely awake, first thing of the day, I had to scramble to figure out if I could pay my part. Luckily I had a credit card with some balance on it that covered the bill. The testing was fine, the consult with the provider afterwards was fine. Then things really started going downhill. I was quoted 6-8wks to receive the full report, with the understanding that I could call to expedite if I needed it sooner for work accommodations. After 8 weeks I called to find out the report was not ready, and was promised a follow up. I made a total of five phone calls and one email over the next four months. On the last call I asked for a manager, and within two days my report was available. I am grateful to have a strong support network, decent insurance, a credit card, and coping skills that allowed me to get through this. When I called for the manager I could feel a panic attack coming on and was able to manage it myself. If I had this hard of a time getting a report I paid good money for, I can't imagine what others are going through.
