About Midwest Recovery Centers

Midwest Recovery Centers – Comprehensive Behavioral Health Treatment

Midwest Recovery Centers is a full-spectrum behavioral health treatment provider in Kansas City offering individualized, evidence-based care for both Substance Use Disorders (SUD) and Primary Mental Health Disorders. With a focus on clinical excellence, compassionate care, and long-term outcomes, Midwest Recovery delivers a structured continuum of care designed to meet clients at every stage of recovery.

The program is built around two specialized treatment tracks—Substance Use Disorder and Primary Mental Health—allowing clients to receive focused, condition-specific care while still benefiting from an integrated, dual-diagnosis-capable environment. Each client receives a personalized treatment plan supported by licensed clinicians, medical providers, and a multidisciplinary care team.

Full Continuum of Care

Midwest Recovery Centers offers multiple levels of care to support clients from stabilization through long-term recovery:

Inpatient Detox & Residential Treatment

Clients begin with medically supervised detox and transition into a structured residential program with 24/7 clinical support. Treatment includes individual therapy, group therapy, family involvement, and evidence-based modalities such as CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed care.

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) with Transitional Housing

A key differentiator of Midwest Recovery Centers is its extended transitional living model. Clients can step down into PHP while residing in supportive housing for an additional 60 days, allowing them to begin reintegrating into daily life while still receiving intensive clinical care.

Following PHP, clients have the option to remain in structured recovery housing for up to 9 additional months, providing stability, accountability, and continued growth during early recovery.

Community Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP)

Midwest Recovery offers community-based IOP programs for both Substance Use Disorder and Primary Mental Health, allowing clients to receive structured therapy while maintaining work, school, or family responsibilities. These programs reinforce coping skills, relapse prevention, and emotional regulation in a real-world environment.

Dual-Track Treatment Model

Midwest Recovery Centers separates care into two focused tracks:

  • Substance Use Disorder Track – Designed for individuals struggling with drug or alcohol dependence, incorporating relapse prevention, behavioral therapy, and long-term recovery planning.

  • Primary Mental Health Track – Designed for individuals whose primary need is mental health stabilization (e.g., anxiety, depression, trauma), with specialized therapeutic interventions and psychiatric support.

This dual-track approach allows for more precise care while still supporting individuals with co-occurring conditions through integrated treatment planning.

Evidence-Based & Experiential Therapies

Treatment at Midwest Recovery Centers combines clinical best practices with experiential healing approaches, including:

  • Individual, group, and family therapy

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

  • Trauma-informed care and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)

  • Experiential therapies such as mindfulness, yoga, and creative therapies

These modalities are designed to address not only symptoms, but also the underlying emotional and behavioral drivers of addiction and mental health conditions.

Long-Term Recovery Focus

Midwest Recovery Centers emphasizes sustainable recovery beyond initial treatment. Through structured step-down programming, transitional housing, and ongoing outpatient care, clients build real-world skills, accountability, and support systems necessary for lasting success.

Aftercare planning includes relapse prevention strategies, continued therapy, peer support, and regular clinical check-ins to ensure continued progress.


A Personalized, Patient-First Approach

Midwest Recovery Centers is committed to delivering ethical, high-quality care in a supportive and respectful environment. Every client is treated as an individual, with programming tailored to their unique clinical needs, life circumstances, and long-term goals.

My daughter is 19 dealing with fyntal addiction. I called Midwest Recovery, a gentleman named Rick answered the phone, I told him the details, my daughter doesn't want to go for treatment, but wants medical detox, my daughter has been to several different rehabs,and didn't work out for her,so Rick took his time and help find a resource for my daughter. Now It is getting her to go. I would highly recommend Midwest Recovery. Ps.Rick you are a amazing man, and thanks so much for your help and time..

Thank you, Amber. It means a lot to hear you’re feeling more in control and letting go of what no longer serves you — that kind of growth takes real courage. Keep giving yourself credit for the work you’re doing.

Accepted Insurance

Please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Midwest Recovery Centers 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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Outpatient Services are available for those who have been able to cease consistent and persistent drug and alcohol abuse, and have also developed a foundation of recovery tools in a previous program such as Residential and/or IOP services. Outpatient services are provided 1 or 2 nights per week, depending on clinical necessity.

Intensive Outpatient programs 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). Community Intensive Outpatient is tailored to those individuals that have been able to cease consistent and persistent drug and alcohol abuse, but still require the development of tools to respond to relapse triggers, cravings, and other hurdles of early recovery.

Rehab aftercare programs offer continuing care for clients in the maintenance phase of recovery and are designed to evolve over time. Outpatient treatment is generally categorized as drug rehab aftercare, but many clients continue to receive services after being discharged from formal care. These services are customized to clients' unique recovery goals, but typically include medical, mental health, and social services. Clients' case manager and recovery team play a key role in developing the client's care plan.

At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.

Designed for individuals who don't require 24/7 monitoring, a partial hospitalization program (PHP) provides intensive-level treatment while allowing you to stay at home. PHP treatment typically requires a commitment of at least 20 hours of treatment per week for an average duration of 90 days. Services commonly offered in PHP include medication management and evidence-based therapies, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Insurance coverage for PHP treatment may vary depending on your provider.

While they are a therapeutic program first, therapy is only part of the package; they also offer a structured sober living program. They believe that residing in a safe environment with others in the same stages of recovery promotes a sense of community and provides support. Their scheduled activities and functions are in place to follow a fun and healthy, active sober lifestyle.

Medical detox is the process of ridding the body of addictive substances under the supervision of licensed medical professionals. An expert medical team, which may include physicians, nurses, clinical staff, and therapists, will monitor your vitals, help maximize your comfort and safety, and provide medication if necessary to help mitigate the symptoms of withdrawal. The length of the process varies depending on your needs.

Inpatient rehabs provide a safe, supportive environment for clients to focus on their recovery secure from outside distractions, stressors, and triggers. Clients receive housing, meals, and intensive clinical supervision. They also engage in extensive addiction counseling, often including group and family therapy. Many programs prioritize recovery-focused life skills training to support clients' reintegration into their home, workplace, school, and community. Evidence-based holistic therapies, such as yoga, acupuncture, meditation, hypnotherapy, or animal therapy, may also be provided.

A drug intervention in Missouri is a planned meeting between a person struggling with addiction and their close friends and family members. The goal of the intervention is to motivate the individual to seek treatment. To be successful, an intervention requires careful planning which may involve intervention services from an intervention specialist. Theyl can be certified by the Association of Intervention Specialists, or they may have other expertise that qualifies them for this role.

12 step programs are designed to enable participants to understand and address the root causes of their addiction, accept responsibility for their life choices, and relinquish control over that which they cannot change. Participants are expected to regularly attend 12 step meetings and to be mentored in their recovery journey by a self-selected sponsor. Meetings are free, anonymous, and open to the public. A variety of formats are available, including programs for seniors, teens, family members, and nondenominational Christians.

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.

mental-health iconMental Health And Substance Abuse

Inpatient treatment provides mental health services with residency in the rehab facility for the duration of treatment. During treatment, you'll likely participate in evidence-based therapies like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), medication management, and skill development – all under the guidance of an expert mental health therapist. By focusing on both aspects of your mental health and treating your addiction, you'll gain vital skills to cope with cravings, manage stress, and prevent relapse. Family therapy or mindfulness training may also be available, which helps to improve mental health.

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.

Clinical Services

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.

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.

The goal of group therapy is to assist each client in identifying and understanding their own pathology in regard to their substance dependence. They strive to interrupt the self-destructive patterns of alcohol and drug use. Their talented staff have developed curriculum that promote the development of relapse prevention skills, communication skills, introspection, harm reduction and resolution, and establishing healthy boundaries. Group therapies range from emotional process groups, to cognitive behavioral therapies and psycho-educational groups. These lessons may be delivered in lecture form, group discussion, artistic expression, video, or written assignments.

During the admission process, each individual is assigned a personal therapist that will conduct individual therapy. They understand that some difficulties take time to resolve, and a group setting is not always the best avenue to find solutions. Individual therapy provides the opportunity to work on specific issues, have ongoing assessment and diagnosis, and to provide appropriate referrals. They have a large team of trained professionals in the community who may work in conjunction with the staff at Midwest to provide a complete clinical experience.

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.

Family therapy sessions help individual family members in Missouri learn to improve their communication skills and understand how the family dynamic is both affected by addiction and affects their loved one's addiction. Therapists work with individual members to identify and modify negative behaviors which helps create a more supportive home environment.

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.
