Compassionate & Non-Judgmental Healthcare

“Before coming to Sandstone Care, I was a slave to drugs and alcohol. It also did not help my mental health. I had lost a lot of hope and I had lost my spirituality. I was spiritually bankrupt. Sandstone Care gave me hope and gave me something to look forward to.” – Jesse

What to Look for When Selecting a Treatment Center in Lake Forest, Illinois

An Individualized Program

When it comes to finding the right behavioral therapy or drug addiction treatment program for you or a loved one, it’s essential to choose an organization that offers a comprehensive assessment process.

At Sandstone Care, we believe that every individual has unique needs, and we’re committed to tailoring our programs to meet those needs.

Don’t settle for a one-size-fits-all approach to treatment. Choose an organization that takes the time to understand your unique needs and provides personalized care and support.

Professional Team

Look for a licensed, experienced organization that focuses on a team-oriented approach, working together to support each client and their family. Find a team that includes individual and family therapists, substance use counselors, psychiatrists, and dietitians.

A highly credentialed team taking a holistic approach to care is critical to achieving successful outcomes from substance use and addiction treatment centers.

Safety

An organization that focuses on participant safety, both physical and emotional. Many people will discover through the treatment process that abstinence from all substances is the best choice for them. Through this journey, it is important to support participants in staying safe and reducing harm.

Find a support system you trust to aid your substance use and addiction treatment.

Icon Mental Health
Mental Health Services & Trauma Training

Drug abuse and addiction generally co-occur with a mental health or trauma experience. It is important that a treatment program has the ability to treat not only substance use but also underlying mental health concerns and trauma.

Ideally, a program would have a psychiatrist on staff, and staff trained in trauma-informed care. A good support system believes recovery and healing are two sides of the same coin, and both are necessary for long-lasting success.

Evidence-Based Care

An organization that draws on research and time-tested practices for the best possible outcome. Research or ask about the therapy methods they use in addition treatment.

The Family Component
Family Oriented

Any large life challenge always affects and is impacted by the surrounding system. Find an organization that supports and integrates the whole family. No one walks the road to recovery alone.

FAQ

You have questions. We have answers.

Our goal is to provide the most helpful information. Please reach out to us if you have any additional questions. We are here to help in any way we can.

Currently, we do not accept Medicaid/Medicare. Reach out to our admissions coordinators who can help connect you with providers who do accept Medicaid/Medicare.

Cost depends on location. We keep our treatment programs as affordable as possible while still maintaining the highest quality service possible. We are in-network with many insurance companies. Call our admissions team at 888-850-1890 or verify your insurance.

We offer age-specific programs for teens (ages 13–18 still in high school), young adults (ages 18–30), and Adults (ages 30+). For young adults participating in our Extended Care Program, we have Transitional Living Programs for men, ages 18–30, and young adult women.

There are many signs that getting help might be necessary. Some signs may include changes in friend groups, under-performing at school, running away, participating in illicit activities, engaging in risky behavior, or acts of self-harm.

The amount of treatment needed is very much dependent on each individual. A licensed clinician performs a comprehensive clinical assessment to understand the unique needs of each person to determine the level of care needed.

The assessment is the first step for all of our clients. The primary reason for the assessment is for us to get to know you and your situation so we can recommend the right program for you, whether that is at Sandstone Care or elsewhere. It is also a great time for you to get to know Sandstone Care as well.

Medication management can be an important part of the treatment process. If medication is recommended, our medication provider will see the client on a regular basis until an ongoing provider is established. If a client has an outside provider and they would like to continue to guide their medication during Sandstone IOP, a release will be required to ensure integrated care.
