Gateway Foundation

You can find Gateway Foundation in Gurnee, Illinois, close to Route 41 and Highway 20. They focus on treating clients who are struggling with alcohol or drug abuse along with co-occurring mental health disorders. They also help those who are in the throes of a gambling addiction with therapy, education programs and counseling.

Addiction Therapy Services and Treatment

When you first arrive at Gateway for treatment, you’ll see their neutral colors, a hardwood floor, and a clinical, but home-like setting with warm decor and comfy furniture. As for their care, they will assess and evaluate your physical and mental conditions and work together with you to create a custom treatment plan that will help you in achieving your wellness goals.

They offer a medication-assisted recovery plan with medication-assisted treatment to help in managing your withdrawal symptoms, which may include cravings and discomfort. They work together with mental health care providers and addiction specialists to ensure you are carefully monitored and that your treatment is helping to improve your conditions.

DUI Classes and Evaluations

I find it good to know that they also offer DUI classes for those who have been referred to Gateway by the court system following convictions for a DUI/DWI offense. They work with you to assist in navigating to legal system requirements and to help in healing both your physical and emotional health needs.

I like that their format for the program includes an extensive evaluation of your court case and your physical and emotional conditions. The staff then provides weekly classes to attend that includes educational classes and lessons along with group discussions. This is followed by an aftercare program to help maintain a healthy lifestyle and prevent relapse.
