About Lafayette House

Inpatient treatment is the highest level of care. The residential program is available to clients whose addictions have caused significant instability in their lives or who are coming from an unsafe living situation and need a safe place to receive treatment. Clients reside at the facility for the length of the program and are closely monitored by staff for the safety of everyone on site.

Residents help develop their course of treatment alongside their care team, with options including comprehensive counseling, family therapy, education opportunities, case management, recovery services, vocational training, and transitional housing. The goal of treatment is to help clients replace addictive behaviors with healthy coping mechanisms, develop life skills, and return to reintegrate into their daily lives.

Some substances, such as opioids, are known to have stronger withdrawal symptoms than others. Staff may administer medication to help clients cope with these problematic cravings and avoid relapse. All drugs used for MAT are FDA approved for such purposes, and staff closely watch clients for any adverse effects and to make adjustments.

Outpatient treatment is the next level of care after inpatient treatment. Outpatient care allows clients to visit the facility on a regular treatment schedule rather than living on site so they can continue to work their jobs and live at home. Clients sometimes use it as a transitional step following the completion of inpatient care, but clients may enter it independently, too.

Outpatient programs are also made available for those in certain court programs.

Accepted Insurance

Please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Lafayette House 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.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

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.

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

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.

Drug rehab in Missouri usually involves several phases: detox, rehab, and aftercare. The rehab phase may include a combination of inpatient and outpatient treatments, as the individual moves through a continuum of care on their recovery journey.

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

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.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Serving in the military is both mentally and physically challenging, and can result in trauma that persists even after combat ends. Military programs are tailored to the specific and often complex needs of active duty personnel, veterans, and military families. Clients often access these programs through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.

The providers who specialize in the children's rehab space understand the specialized needs that this population faces. School-based and social services such as tutoring and family counseling are often central to treatment. Child programs may also address the needs of youth experiencing substance abuse in the home, including a parent's or sibling's addiction.

Clinical Services

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.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

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.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

Life skills give you the ability to maintain healthy relationships, complete day to day tasks, and cope with challenges. Because substance use disorder often diminishes these skills, rehab in Missouri includes integrated life skills training to rebuild and reinforce these abilities.

Recreational therapy helps you overcome addiction by engaging in activities that promote physical fitness and mental health. These activities can include team sports, art, and outdoor adventures, Each of which helps reduce your stress level, improves mood, and develops new hobbies. These are crucial to support your long term journey to sobriety.

The goal of cognitive behavioral therapy in Missouri is to help clients change their thinking and behavioral patterns. Strategies of treatment include role playing, facing fears, and calming techniques.

A complete course of dialectical behavior therapy typically takes six months. Skills training happens in a group setting. You'll also attend weekly individual treatment sessions to receive coaching from a therapist. You'll work on understanding and accepting your feelings and learn how to manage them to make positive changes.

0 out of 10 would not recommend what's discriminated against the whole time because of my autism too much drama going on I felt more traumatized after leaving there than I did before coming there and I was pretty traumatized because of domestic violence I was also pregnant and my thumb is broken and I couldn't get help with carrying things, also The domestic violence Shelter manager Heather B. Something is very abusive she likes to manipulate and gas light the residents she also threatened to kick me out because of my autism and when I tried to file a complaint it said in the rule book if it was against the shelter manager bring it down to the lobby people front desk people and have it written to the CEO and she tried to forcibly grab it from my hand before I can bring it down and when I went down to bring it to those people she followed right behind me then went to her boss and tried to workplace politics her way out of it and I ended up getting kicked out that same day their excuse was the information at intake was wrong even though The Independent living Center lady that has been working with me was on the phone with me when I told them that the abuse happened a week ago and I guess they put in that it happened a day ago but from everything that happens everybody that I know can tell that it was most likely workplace politics at play that got me removed eventually because I decided to report the shelter manager

I came to this shelter hoping it would be a safe place for survivors of domestic violence to heal, rebuild, and feel protected after experiencing some of the most painful and traumatic situations of their lives. Unfortunately, my experience has been very different. A shelter should be a place where people feel respected, valued, supported, and cared for, but too often this environment has felt like the opposite. One of the biggest concerns is the lack of empathy and understanding from management. The shelter manager does not seem to truly understand the emotional, mental, and physical toll survivors are experiencing. People who come into a domestic violence shelter are often scared, vulnerable, and trying to rebuild their lives from the ground up. They need compassion, patience, and someone who genuinely cares about their safety and healing. Instead, there have been times where clients and even babies seem overlooked, as if their needs, emotions, and struggles are not being taken seriously. There is also a strong focus placed on clients working toward goals, and while having goals and building independence is absolutely important and understandable, the problem is that many times clients are not given the proper resources, support, or opportunities needed to actually reach those goals. It is difficult to succeed when people are expected to make progress but are not provided with the tools, guidance, connections, or assistance necessary to get there. Survivors need more than expectations—they need real support, resources, and someone willing to help them overcome the barriers they are facing. Another major concern is the willingness to remove people from the shelter without enough consideration for what happens afterward. It is extremely concerning that people escaping domestic violence, including mothers with babies and children, can be put in a position where they are facing homelessness and being forced back onto the streets. A shelter should be a place that helps people transition into stability, not a place where vulnerable families are left with nowhere safe to go. There should be more compassion, planning, and support put into place to ensure that survivors and children are not placed in even more dangerous situations. There are also serious concerns about how certain staff members treat clients. One specific kitchen worker has repeatedly been rude and has made insensitive comments toward residents. When someone is escaping abuse, they should never have to feel judged, embarrassed, or disrespected by the people who are supposed to be helping them. It is extremely disappointing that this behavior appears to continue without proper accountability or consequences. The Shelter Advocates deserve recognition and appreciation for the work they do. They are often the people on the front lines supporting survivors through some of their hardest moments. They listen to trauma, help families navigate difficult situations, provide emotional support, and handle situations that are mentally and emotionally exhausting. They deserve to be treated with respect, supported by leadership, and fairly compensated for everything they endure. The amount of responsibility placed on them does not match the support and pay they receive. Overall, this shelter does not feel like the safe, comfortable, and healing environment that a domestic violence shelter should be. Survivors who have already been hurt should not have to come into a place meant for safety and feel uncomfortable, unheard, dismissed, or unsupported. A trauma-informed environment requires kindness, accountability, patience, and genuine care from everyone involved. I truly hope these concerns are taken seriously and that meaningful changes are made. The clients, children, and staff all deserve better. People escaping domestic violence deserve a place where they can finally breathe, feel protected, and begin healing—not another environment where they feel like they have to fight to be heard or fear losing the only safe place they have.
