About
Recognized as one of the top treatment facilities in the United States for four straight years (2021–2024), Indiana Center for Recovery located in Merrillville provides empathetic and cutting-edge outpatient services. Their Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) effectively connects residential treatment with traditional, less intensive outpatient care. This program features structured, research-backed therapies while enabling clients to return home each night. When clients arrive, they are greeted with a comprehensive tour of the facility, a check-in process conducted by a behavioral health technician, and introductions to their dedicated treatment team. Individualized treatment plans are crafted to target the underlying causes of addiction through personal counseling, group sessions, and workshops to develop essential skills.
The center focuses on customized treatment to suit each client's specific circumstances. Their dual-diagnosis protocol simultaneously addresses substance use disorders and mental health issues, while individualized services can concentrate solely on either addiction or mental health challenges. A wide range of therapies, including evidence-based practices, Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), and medication oversight, are offered. The IOP generally spans 4–6 weeks, with detoxification taking 1–2 weeks if necessary. This comprehensive strategy addresses substance misuse and accompanying issues such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD, with an emphasis on dual-diagnosis care that fosters holistically successful recovery.
Engagement from family members plays a vital role in the program, with therapeutic sessions and resources designed to empower relatives to actively assist in the recovery journey. These initiatives enhance communication and strengthen bonds, creating a nurturing environment that supports sustained recovery.
Veterans are provided with specialized treatment that caters to their distinct requirements, including GeneSight genetic testing to enhance medication efficacy and reduce potential side effects. In conjunction with tailored counseling, therapy sessions, and skill-building workshops, this evidence-based methodology promotes enduring recovery and better overall mental health.
