About Sandstone Care Chicago
Sandstone Care provides mental health and substance use treatment tailored to each client’s individual age and needs.
From their headquarters, they offer online intensive outpatient programs (IOP) for substance abuse. Sandstone also offers various in-person services and treatments for clients in the Chicago area.
Virtual IOP for Teens and Adults in Illinois
The striking feature offered by Sandstone Care is their online IOP. This virtual program is for folks who need substance abuse or mental health treatment.
They have a track for teens between 13 and 18 as well as one for young adults 18 to 30. Having the program online allows convenience and access for folks who might not otherwise be able to get to in-person meetings.
Highly credentialed professionals lead the program through a secure HIPAA-compliant digital platform.
I like that their program considers each client’s emotional, physical and mental wellbeing. Clinicians provide personalized treatment plans by offering telehealth video chat.
You’ll need a steady internet connection and they’ll take care of the rest. This IOP is for you if you need drug or alcohol rehab and/or mental health treatment.
Referrals to Chicago in-Person Services in Chicago
Sandstone Care also offers various levels of outpatient services in person including for clients with a dual diagnosis.
If you need an assessment, they can provide that for you. You can also get partial hospitalization treatment if the virtual IOP isn’t intensive enough for your needs.

Accepted Insurance
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.

Treatments
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.

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.
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.
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.
If you engage in cognitive behavioral therapy in Illinois, your therapist will work with you to change your thinking patterns. You'll learn how to recognize faulty thinking and develop skills to deal with stress without using substances.
Dialectical behavior therapy in Illinois typically involves keeping a diary to track actions and emotions. Your therapist will use this diary to determine what to focus on during each session. In addition to individual sessions, you'll also attend group meetings where you are trained in coping skills.
Trauma therapy provides you with a safe and supportive environment so you can address a traumatic experience. Your therapist helps guide you to understand your emotional, mental, and physical responses while developing healthier coping skills. This helps to improve your emotional resilience and ability to function in the community.
