They have poor customer service. I always have to wait more than an hour and a half to be seen, even if I arrive on time for the appointments. They have a lazy staff.
About Lake County Behavioral Health – Round Lake Park Mental Health
Lake County Behavioral Health – Round Lake Park Mental Health is located in the quaint village of Round Lake Park, Illinois. This government clinic provides behavioral health and substance abuse services for youth aged 12 to 20. Your child can access comprehensive care and specialized interventions to meet their unique needs.
Their Child & Adolescent Behavioral Services (CABS) program welcomes youth currently experimenting with substances or diagnosed with substance use disorder. Your child can participate in outpatient care while living at home and maintaining responsibilities like school. They provide trauma informed group, individual and family counseling as well as crisis interventions, case management and psychiatric services.
Affordable Care Regardless of Finances
One great feature that caught my eye was their flexible payment methods. The clinic accepts Medicaid and Medicaid MCO insurance, and you can still receive compassionate care without insurance. They provide services based on your number of dependents and income. If you’re an eligible Lake County resident you can pay based on a sliding fee schedule. That way finances won’t stand in the way of getting the care your family needs.
Empowering Families With Specialized Care
I also think their Family Support Program (FSP) is fantastic. If your child has a severe emotional disturbance and needs more intensive or residential services, they can connect you to with appropriate care. Your child can also access free therapeutic and individual support including nutrition classes, gym memberships, art therapy and drama therapy.
Protecting Lives With Harm Reduction
Lastly, I think it’s great that they offer prevention and harm reduction programs just 25 minutes away at their Waukegan location. Anyone in Lake County can participate in opioid overdose prevention and education. You can learn more about the nature of opioids, how overdoses happen and how to reverse them with Narcan. They even provide free Narcan kits to participants after they complete the training. I think this is great because you can gain the tools to spread awareness and save lives.

Other Forms of Payment
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.
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.

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.
In the DBT Group patients must be involved in individual therapy at the clinic to be in this group. The group uses instructional lecture, group discussion, behavioral rehearsal with modeling and role-play, written handouts, and homework assignments to help you decrease unmanageable issues in your life. Mindfulness skills are central to this group.
Family involvement with treatment, when clinically helpful to a client's progress, is encouraged. Case managers are available to assist families in obtaining the resources necessary to restore balance. They strive to help youth and their families develop positive coping techniques, communication skills and the means to manage mental health issues, while maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
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.
