Staff knows how tough reaching out for help can be, and their caring assessment and referral team is there to support you every step of the way. Available 24/7, they offer free and confidential assessments to help you figure out the best treatment options, whether it’s outpatient counseling or more intensive care.

The Adult Chemical Dependency Inpatient Program provides a supportive, structured setting for detox and recovery, using the Living in Balance (LIB) model for effective treatment and relapse prevention. Many patients continue care through the partial hospitalization program, which offers similar evidence-based methods in a less intensive setting. You may not need inpatient or partial hospitalization at all. Your care team may recommend intensive outpatient treatment, which meets Monday through Thursday for 3 ½ hours.

Patients in most of the addiction treatment programs here have access to the Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP). It’s a system that helps folks take charge of their mental health by figuring out what triggers them, spotting early warning signs and finding coping strategies. All programs include plenty of individual and group therapy sessions. Family therapy is also available.

Mission Wellness offers a personalized dual diagnosis program for military members and veterans. The program combines evidence-based and holistic treatments to address mental health and addiction issues. With therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, and expressive arts, plus onsite military only closed AA meetings, it’s designed to support the unique challenges of military life and service.

At Lincoln Trail Behavioral Health, you’ll find a warm, welcoming space where you can experience recovery using a blend of evidence-based and holistic treatments. Their programs are designed to help you find balance and move forward.

Accepted Insurance

Please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Lincoln Trail Behavioral Health Outpatient Center 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.

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.

Inpatient rehab is designed primarily for clients exiting detox, those in early recovery, and those in crisis situations that may increase their risk of relapse. Clients reside at the inpatient treatment center for the length of the program, which may range from two weeks to more than 18 months, depending on the program design. Inpatient treatment typically includes 24-hour clinical care and extensive addiction counseling and recovery education using CBT, DBT, RBT, motivational interviewing or other psychotherapeutic approaches.

Lincoln Trail Behavioral Health System IOP's are for Adults seeking treatment for alcohol & substance abuse/dual diagnosis. The treatment modalities used include Living in Balance, The Matrix Model, TCU Mapping-Enhanced Counseling, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Seeking Safety. These treatment modalities are also supplemented with the 12-Step based daily meditation readings.

Rehab aftercare programs ensure clients' access to continuing care after the completion of intensive inpatient treatment. Outpatient care is often considered a component of drug rehab aftercare, but most clients continue to receive support services after being discharged from formal treatment. Service portfolios are customized to clients' unique and evolving needs and are often designed in collaboration with clients' case managers and care teams. Peer coaching, career counseling, relapse prevention, and 12 step program induction are standard.

Living in Balance helps patients to discover areas of life they have neglected through addiction and gives them the resources to live a sober life. In addition to Living in Balance, patients attend Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) while in treatment. They receive a copy of the Big Book and begin to work the 12 steps. 12 step education is provided in groups and individually patients work on each step.

A sober living home in Kentucky offers many benefits to those in recovery. These drug-free environments allow individuals to distance themselves from situations that would prompt triggers and lead to relapse. Men's and women's sober living also offers 12-step programs, counseling, job placement services, and long-term residence after treatment. During their stay, residents are required to abstain from alcohol and drug use, pay rent, and contribute to household responsibilities.

Collaborative treatment planning with the Psychiatrist, Case Coordinator, Social Worker and the Nurse helps each patient develop specific goals and determines interventions with the greatest likelihood of success. These interventions are symptom and solution focused. Interventions include the provision of a safe and therapeutic environment, daily physician supervision, nursing and monitoring, and care and intensive programming.

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.

Often beneficial for individuals who don't require 24-hour supervision, a partial hospitalization program (PHP) can be an alternative to inpatient rehab or a transitional option. PHP treatment typically involves 6 to 8 hours of treatment per day, up to 5 days a week for an average of 90 days. PHP treatment often includes relapse prevention strategies, medication management, and other behavioral therapy interventions. While the cost of a partial hospitalization program can vary, it is often covered by insurance.

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 Kentucky often starts with detox, then includes inpatient or outpatient treatment, and continues with aftercare support. Specific methods used during each of these phases varies, but often include individual and group counseling, medication, and recreational therapies.

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.

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.

In Kentucky, comprehensive substance abuse treatment programs are available to address addiction and any co-occurring mental health disorders. Typically, treatment programs offer various levels of care, including outpatient, inpatient, and partial hospitalization. Treatment activities include individual and group therapy, recovery support meetings, evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and psychoeducation. By the end of treatment you will have the resources and supportive recovery community to sustain long-term mental health and sobriety.

Inpatient addiction treatment means you will reside at the facility and receive rehab and mental health services. Comprehensive treatment programs include mental health aspects, medical and psychological support, experiential therapies, cognitive behavioral therapies (CBT), and various therapeutic interventions aimed at addressing addiction and improving mental health. Additionally, individual and group counseling are standard mental health offerings, as are relapse prevention education programs.

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.

Lincoln Trail Behavioral Health System's Mission Wellness Program is designated as a Patriot Support Center of Excellence. It is available to active duty military, reservists, National Guard and veterans experiencing mental health, substance abuse and dual diagnosis issues, particularly those related to combat and stress. They provide a structured integrated approach to healing by utilizing evidence-based treatment modalities led by a multi-disciplinary treatment team of mental health professionals.

Teen programs are designed to address the unique pressures teens face, pressures that can drive them to experiment with dangerous, addictive substances. They need programs that meet them exactly where they are and give them tools for long-term recovery. Therapy can help teenagers understand and work through underlying issues so they can reclaim the life ahead of them.

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

Cognitive behavioral therapy in Kentucky involves learning to recognize unhealthy thinking patterns and developing problem solving skills to cope with life's challenges. It will help you have greater confidence in your abilities so you can change your patterns of behavior and break free from 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.

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.

The Willows Program at Lincoln Trail Behavioral Health System provides a treatment team approach focused on acknowledging the impact of past trauma and unresolved emotional concerns while assisting the young woman in building safe and functional patterns for coping. The Willows Program is equipped to treat youth who have been victims of trauma, including sexual abuse an dissociated sexually reactive behaviors. The program utilizes Evidence-based practices sensitive to age, gender and trauma history. The Willows Program consists of a Trauma-Informed milieu structure which provides expressive therapy modules, exercises in accountability and empathy development, psycho-education, relapse prevention, identification of behavior cycles, development of grounding skills for emotional safety, and assisting patients with creating safe family and social supports.

As you begin couples therapy in Kentucky, you'll outline the goals for therapy. Your therapist will then arrange to meet with you in weekly joint sessions and, in some cases, individual sessions. You'll receive homework assignments to practice each week between sessions that will help you reach your goals.

EMDR is a therapeutic modality originally developed to help process trauma. In an EMDR session, a patient is prompted to undergo eye movements that mimic those of REM sleep. This is accomplished by watching a therapist's finger move back and forth across, or following a bar of light. The goal is repetitive sets of eye movements that help the brain reprocess memory, which can significantly reduce the intensity of remembered traumatic incidents. Associated memories can heal simultaneously, leaving patients significantly calmer, more stable, and more emotionally relaxed.

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. Lincoln Trail Behavioral Health System recognizes the importance of family involvement and support in the treatment process, therefore the program emphasizes family participation through therapy.

Nutrition therapy is a form of holistic therapy that is often incorporated into drug rehab programs in Kentucky. Eating healthy meals and learning how to choose the best foods for recovery helps you heal faster and helps prevent relapse.

Holistic alcohol and drug addiction treatment centers use recreational therapy to help you find a constructive way to spend your time and manage your stress. Activities can include yoga, team sports, creative arts, and painting. These encourage social interaction, support your physical fitness, and improve your mood, all of which are crucial for maintaining a successful recovery.

Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) in Kentucky is not intended for long term use, but it can help you get over the challenging initial phase of quitting smoking. Based on your craving levels and other lifestyle needs, you can choose from a variety of NRT methods to reduce withdrawals and break free from nicotine addiction.

It’s been almost 3 months since leaving this facility. I have finally built up the courage and cooled off enough to write this review. I started the IOP at the beginning of may with an amazing group of kids, and at the time, an amazing therapist. I started seeing this therapist individually, and that’s when things got bad. This therapist knew I was actively recovering from an eating disorder, and told me my weight and BMI the second session. She also told me not to feel bad about it because of the comparison to hers. She also told me to track my calories and had me in an extreme deficit. I also want to say, I have extreme OCD, and that’s why I was there. Instead of doing actual therapy for OCD like exposing me, she recommended I wear a mask and gloves, creating a new compulsion. She was completely uneducated, and I honestly do NOT KNOW how her boss lets her do this stuff. The program is. 21 sessions, I was there for almost 3 months and she wasn’t planning on discharging me until late August. She told me to use her email as a diary, and when I was worried about sickness, she made my mom take me to the urgent care. Most of the time, we weren’t really doing group work; it was mostly watching movies, doing crafts etc. I didn’t learn anything the whole time I was there. The therapist knew about my fears, and most of the time she was good about letting others know when a triggering topic was brought up. But sometimes, she would get annoyed of me, and make comments like “I don’t know why you’re acting like this”. I tried so hard to give her patience and understanding, because she is newer, but it just kept getting worse. She was SO unprofessional, and always used the inpatient unit as a threat. She also argued with kids. She made us go around telling everyone why we were there, even when we didn’t want to. I learned things that I shouldn’t know about substances, terms, and other inappropriate topics. I got to my lowest because my whole summer was gone, and I was being overtaken by this program, so I started to become super quiet and shut down. On July 28th, I showed up to group virtually because I was SO done with showing up, and I told the therapist about an impulsive decision I made. It was with no intention of putting my safety at risk, and that was discussed clearly. She then told me I had to go get an assessment at the inpatient unit. I did, and I WAS CLEARED TO GO HOME. I went home, had a great night, and the next morning I was woken up to a call at 9AM saying I had to go back for another assessment or CPS would be called. At this point, we knew the therapist had called OUT OF HER BUSINESS. Sharing her opinion and why she thought they dropped the ball. She had no business, or say in the doctors decision, but still decided to be a snoop. We went back in, and my parents refused to sign any of the papers because we had got assessed and cleared the day prior. We were held illegally behind locked doors for over 6 hours. Because we hadn’t signed any papers, and no orders were in place and we were still being held, we called the police. When the police got there, we were told to get an attorney asap, and that we were being put on a hold. The cops thought this was ridiculous. Not even 72 hours later, I was deemed safe, and released. I still have flashbacks, and I cried for at least a week after that because I was mortified that I was going to be taken from my home for no reason once again. Now I have to do EMDR for this event, and I’m scared to get a therapist ever again. Thanks to you guys! I hope this therapist gets discussed and fired. Tearing up while writing this because of how badly this affected me AND my family. Things are still being handled. But I’d proceed with caution before entering this program.
