What We Treat
Mental Health Treatment at NuLife Behavioral Health Illinois
- Mental health disorders are common in the US. The following are a few of the more common mental health conditions we treat at NuLife Behavioral Health:
- Anxiety. Anxiety is the most common family of psychological disorders in the nation, affecting 19 million adults. Although all forms of anxiety can be debilitating, anxiety responds well to treatment.
- Depression. Depression robs a person’s life of joy. It’s much more than passing sadness. Depression can consume a person’s life unless they seek treatment.
- Trauma & Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Although combat is responsible for many cases of PTSD, other events like assault, rape, neglect–even surviving a serious car accident–can produce PTSD.
- Bipolar Disorder. Bipolar disorder’s effects are much more devastating than regular changes in one’s mood. Like the rest of these disorders, it’s a condition that can be incapacitating, but with the proper treatment, bipolar disorder can be controlled.
Addiction Treatment
- Alcohol. Alcohol is the most commonly abused substance in the US and the world. For millions, drinking leads to alcohol addiction, but alcohol addiction, commonly called alcoholism, can be treated. Professional addiction treatment can stop the progression of alcoholism in its tracks.
- Prescription Drugs. Prescription painkillers like oxycodone and sedatives such as Xanax, Valium, and Ativan have legitimate uses but can also be addictive.
- Heroin. Heroin is a highly addictive opioid in the same family as many prescription analgesics. Unlike medications, heroin is illegal and can be lethal when mixed with alcohol or other substances.
- Cocaine. Cocaine delivers euphoria and energy to its users. As an illegal stimulant, it’s addictive and produces serious harm to the heart and nervous system.
- Meth. Crystal methamphetamine is a profoundly addictive stimulant. Unlike other substances, it can cause addiction within a few uses. Although it can cause severe damage to a person’s health–and life–meth addiction responds to treatment.
Our facility in Buffalo Grove Illinois offers all of the following programming options:
Our levels of care include traditional outpatient services and more intensive outpatient treatment. These more involved options include our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), designed as a step between partial hospitalization and regular outpatient counseling, and partial hospitalization (PHP), which occurs 5 days a week, 4 to 5 hours a day. At all levels of care, participants return home in the evenings.
Our treatment programs provide all of the following:
- Individual Therapy: One-on-one sessions with a mental health professional to address the emotional and behavioral habits that fuel a client’s mental disorders, substance addiction, or both.
- Group Therapy: Therapy sessions involving multiple patients, often focused on shared experiences. Group therapy topics include coping strategies, substance abuse recovery, stress management, and living life on life’s terms.
- Family Therapy: Sessions involving the patient’s family members address family relationships and how they affect the patient’s mental health and recovery.
- Substance Abuse Treatment: At NuLife in Illinois, we offer medication-assisted treatment, counseling, and support groups for individuals struggling with addiction.
- Psychiatric Services: These Include evaluation, diagnosis, and medication management for mental health disorders.
- Support Groups: Peer-led groups provide support and a sense of community for individuals facing similar challenges.
- Educational Programs: IOP and PHP offer workshops or seminars on topics related to mental health and wellness.
- Aftercare and Relapse Prevention: Ongoing support to maintain recovery and prevent relapse after initial treatment phase.
NuLife’s Programming Options
We offer several levels of care, tailored to your unique needs. They include our partial hospitalization program and an intensive outpatient program. Both of these treatment options allow participants to go about their normal routines.
PARTIAL HOSPITALIZATION PROGRAM
Our partial hospitalization program (PHP) is for people who need more support than a traditional outpatient program offers but don’t require 24/7 inpatient treatment. PHP typically consists of six to eight hours of programming daily, five to seven days per week.
Partial hospitalization offers individual, group, and family therapy, and an array of holistic treatments, including music, yoga, acupuncture, and experiential therapies.
INTENSIVE OUTPATIENT PROGRAM
IOP typically consists of 12 hours of programming a week. While in this program, clients continue to build healthy coping skills. In our IOP, clients participate in small interactive groups and individual sessions with their primary therapists.
Typically, clients attend sessions for 12 hours weekly. Clients attend three group therapy sessions weekly and individual counseling sessions with a licensed mental health professional. We also encourage clients in our substance abuse treatment program to participate in 12-step support meetings, which can be a way to continue building a support system after treatment.
All our treatment programs offer cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), two of the gold standard treatments for recovery from mental health disorders, substance addiction, or both.
Dual Diagnosis Treatment
Dual diagnosis, or co-occurring disorders, happens when a person has a mental health disorder and substance addiction at the same time. Dual diagnosis care requires the advanced treatment you’ll find at NuLife Behavioral Health in Buffalo Grove, Illinois.
