Questions people ask about Guidance Center
Is Guidance Center residential or day treatment?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Atchison is set up for.
Is detox part of what Guidance Center offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Atchison, 1.8 miles away.
Can Guidance Center handle a court referral?
Yes. Court ordered treatment is one of the things they take, and one of 14 things they offer a named program for.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Guidance Center?
They prescribe naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 1 center near Atchison, not all of them do.
Do I have to come in person to Guidance Center?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Atchison often still has to be in person.
Is Guidance Center an option for someone under 18?
Yes. They treat ages 12 to 17, which only a minority of centers do. Atchison has 1 other center, and an age range is the first thing to confirm on the call.
Is there a sliding scale?
The honest range is wide. A few outpatient sessions and a month of residential care are not comparable numbers. The gap between two quotes is often the length of the program rather than the quality of the care. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can go through what your coverage is likely to reach.
What if there is depression or anxiety as well?
Treating the substance use and leaving a diagnosis untouched is a common reason a first attempt does not hold. Psychiatric medication and treatment medication can usually be managed together by the same team. Ask who to speak to if the mental health side gets worse mid program.
