Questions people ask about Allens Family Counseling Center Inc

What treatment does Allens Family Counseling Center Inc offer?

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Chicago has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

Does Allens Family Counseling Center Inc offer a detox?

They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Chicago is the nearest place that does it, a few streets away.

Does Allens Family Counseling Center Inc prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?

They prescribe buprenorphine, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Chicago, not all of them do.

Does Allens Family Counseling Center Inc take court ordered treatment?

They take mandated treatment. What paperwork the court wants back is between you and whoever ordered it, and Chicago has 8 other centers if the dates do not work.

Can a 16 year old be treated at Allens Family Counseling Center Inc?

They treat adolescents. A program built for a 17 year old is not the same program as the adult one, so ask which of the two they offer in Chicago.

How much does treatment cost?

The honest range is wide. A few outpatient sessions and a month of residential care are not comparable numbers. County behavioral health departments fund treatment directly in many places, and that route is invisible from a search. Ask for the all in figure, then ask which parts of it are estimates.

Can a mental health condition be treated at the same time?

The two feed each other, which is why handling them separately tends to work badly. A diagnosis made while someone is still using can be wrong, so assessment often waits until after detox. Ask who to speak to if the mental health side gets worse mid program.

How long does treatment take?

The block you are offered and the time the work takes are two different things, and that is the honest answer. The first two weeks are usually the most intensive part of whatever you choose. Ask what the step down looks like after the main program ends.
