About Midwest Recovery Centers

Midwest Recovery is a full service alcohol and drug addiction recovery facility in Kansas City, Missouri. Midwest Recovery provides multi-phase treatment plans that meet adult clients where they are in recovery and guide them through a comprehensive, individualized program. This is a private facility with homelike amenities.

Midwest Recovery uses assessments to uncover adjacent behavioral health concerns before a client enters treatment. They provide dual diagnosis care for clients with such a diagnosis

The first step for many seeking treatment is detox. Clients reside at the facility during this process, where they can be monitored and cared for by the medical team, which helps clients cope with withdrawal. Once a client is stable, they can enter the appropriate level of treatment.

The residential program sees clients live at the facility while receiving treatment. The residence is a secure facility monitored around the clock by staff, who assist in meeting clients’ needs. This is a supportive community environment where clients follow a structured schedule.

Treatment is built on therapy and education groups that seek to help clients better understand their addictions, emotions, and triggers while teaching them improved communication and coping skills to support ongoing recovery. Therapy takes place individually and in groups.

During the second residential treatment phase, clients are moved to transitional housing, where they continue to receive outpatient care. Clients begin taking on more responsibility and gain more freedom as they continue to receive treatment and practice coping skills in anticipation of returning to independent living.

The IOP day program has clients visit the treatment facility three nights a week for three hour sessions. It’s sometimes used following inpatient care and lasts for 24 sessions. Clients participate in the same types of therapy and education groups as those offered in inpatient care.

This is a less intensive version of IOP for those who have shown improvement in coping skills and substance use avoidance. It uses the same model of therapy and education groups but meets less frequently than IOP, two and a half hours a night for two nights a week.

This is an Amazing place, with a heart for saving our loved ones from the addiction that is destroying not just them but their families as well. Whether it's intake, detox, counseling, and preparation with life skills and tools that will empower them to walk back into society and be humble but work hard for their sobriety, knowing that God is in control and that they can be successful in their recovery. I highly recommend. God sent them to me to save my son when he was ready to get clean but didn't know how...they were there...

I have been to numerous treatment facilities, including The Welcome House, ACT, Mirrors, Therapeutic Community, Intensive outpatient treatment (at numerous locations) and Midwest Recovery Centers has been the only one that I've actually enjoyed and feel like I left a different person. It may be a bit expensive but the experience was worth every penny. I can't say enough good things about the staff, groups, cleanliness, food and the overall magic power that resides within their walls. Thank you all so much!

Find it difficult to reach anyone in their billing office. Have left multiple messages but no response. I would like to have an explaination of the $6000/day inpatient charge submitted to my insurance and the $2300 lab charges.These charges seem.extreme for the services received described by my son.Then, we wonder why our insurance premiums are so high.

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 iconOutpatient
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 iconIntensive Outpatient
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.
aftercare iconAftercare Support
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.
24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care
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.
partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program
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.
sober-living iconSober Living Homes
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.

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-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
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-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
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.

This place is great! It is a smaller program so the time and attention my loved one received was amazing. We were not sure where to turn but the staff there answered all of our questions and helped us every step of the way. If you know anybody struggling send them to MRC.

EDIT in response to facility reply: I don't need to call for clarity. If your team is committed to patient-centered care, I hope you’ll view my review as an opportunity for growth for the next person who walks through your doors feeling vulnerable and in need of care. ____________________________________________ I was in the mental health recovery location. I went here for VOLUNTARY mental health treatment for PTSD, MDD, and GAD. I believed that I was going somewhere where people see this as a medical condition, not a defect or an offense. I'm writing this review because patients deserve to know in advance that Midwest Recovery performs an invasive "strip search" upon admission. I was in contact with them for almost a month prior to finally getting the courage to go, and not once was this disclosed until I was already admitted. That is the term they used, "strip search." The term “strip search” comes from law enforcement and correctional settings. It refers to the forced removal of clothing to search for contraband or weapons. It’s associated with criminal procedures, jails, and suspicion. Historically: police, prison staff, and TSA agents use this term. Clinically using this term is replicating carceral logic, which is part of the problem here. For Midwest Recovery to use that term, it shows how much of our mental health system still borrows from a punitive model. I have no addictions, no criminal history. The search is removal of all clothing, including undergarments. You have to bend over and cough. There were two nurses present; Geri & Sonya. When I told the nurses that I did not expect this, Sonya said with a rude tone and without any compassion, "You didn't?" As if that was a ridiculous thing for me to say. No, of course I didn't. Why would I? I went there voluntarily for medical treatment. This was not trauma informed treatment. It was traumatizing. I was already not doing well. I was already nervous. This felt dehumanizing. I don't care what explanations you provide for why you do this. I understand you may have patients who try to bring in restricted things. I should have been told in advance. I know that there are other inpatient facilities who do not conduct their safety search this way. I want to thank Geri and another nurse, I don't know her name - she was downstairs and has short red hair. They treated me like a human - respectfully, compassionately, and without judgment. The lady with red hair reminded me to be kind to myself because these are health conditions like any other. The other thing I wanted to bring up is that this is a 45-day treatment center, and that's a long time with a lot of downtime, but I didn't see a single book about mental health. There weren't many books at all. I only saw a few addiction books. I think it would be healing and a good investment in patients to have educational materials about mental health education that focus on treatment modalities and recovery. I thought this was the whole purpose of your existence. I think it's odd that this was missing. If leadership at the facility is genuinely invested in ethical, trauma-informed care and recovery and not primarily profit-driven, I hope they take my feedback seriously.

I can’t say enough about the outstanding service and support I received from Midwest Recovery while finding placement for my son, who was transferring from treatment out of state. Sidney and Sean were both incredibly patient, compassionate, and understanding through every step of the process. They took the time to answer all of my questions—no matter how many times I called—and always checked in regularly while we waited for my son to agree to the program. What truly stood out was their willingness to share their own personal journeys with Midwest Recovery. Hearing their stories not only provided hope but also reassured me that this was the right place for my son. Their authenticity and dedication made a difficult time a little easier, and I’m deeply grateful for the care and connection they provided. Thank you, Sidney and Sean, and the entire Midwest Recovery team, for making a difference when it mattered most.

I would say overall the time there was good. The nurses were beyond wonderful 10/10. The care , love & respect I received was well. Though not all the staff members seemed to love their job as much as others, it showed sometimes. My biggest hurdle I ran into with MRC was deciding to use medical marijuana as part of my recovery. I have a medical card. Though they honor any other medicine prescribed by doctors… that may show up in a pee test. Xanax, adderall . Etc not cannabis. I was told I relapsed. Judged harshly. & made to feel out casted. I even felt as if some of my care while in there was to get me to change careers as I am a GM at a dispo. My company has ethics that helped get me to rehab, supported my mental health journey & continued to show me love & support. If I could give advice to MRC would be to open your eyes to natural remedies of healing. You have no problem pushing pills down peoples throats every 6 hours, but a plant that’s from the earth that I see daily benefit so many lives.. truly unfortunate we parted ways because of such thing.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience, we are sorry this was not a better experience for you, recovery is never an easy process. We are always eager to learn from feedback so we can better serve those in need!

This is a gem of a facility. This isn't a place where you go and you magically feel better just because you are within the environment. You truly have to show up for yourself every single day in order for this to work. I'm truly grateful 🙏 for all the people in this building. Aaliyah, Brista 😆, Bre, Charlene, Sara, Gerry, Sonya, Angie, Marco, Candace, Stephen, the new sara, Matt, Zach, Josh, Anthony, Wanda. My group leaders Rick, Todd, Jake, Dan, Meagan, Abby were all great. My therapist Tara was the most legit therapist I have ever had! My medical providers Beth and Chanicka (I know I misspelled it 😫) but they were all so kind always listened to whatever you had going on in your mental. Mckenzie the TMS provider always had a smile on her face which made the day easier in times of difficulty. Jimmy, Ryan and Brandon the chefs were also amazing. This place is top notch and I would recommend it to anyone struggle with mental health. Thank you for saving my life.

Very restrictive place. Food is ok or meh. Groups are very good. Restrictions are hard, 2 hours per day with your phone, you have a very restrictive time to get your meds. Say you need your med by at least 10pm, however something had gone bad and you can't get the 1 nurse that can give your med til 10:01, they have to call and get permission to give it to you. They allow coffee and tea, juice: orange apple fruit punch ang grape. Milk and chocolate milk. Also non caffeine energy drinks. They get 2 trucks per week and the drink selection runs dry very quickly. If you are on a dietary restriction this is not the place for you. The therapists they have are very good. They will push their other programs on you very much. I'll ignore the stars and give them a 6/10

Response from the ownerInvalid relative date format:
We are sorry for the inconveniences you faced , we are grateful to learn more so we can continue to shape our program as best we can!
