At Gateway Foundation in Aurora, IL, our patients benefit from evidence-based, individualized addiction treatment programs. We take time to understand the unique influences that impact each person’s addiction, allowing us to develop a highly personalized approach to patient care that’s focused on the unique needs of the individual.
Addiction is not a moral failing or a lack of self-control. It’s a disease that undermines the way your brain registers pleasure, influencing your behaviors, thoughts and motivations. Each person’s path to addiction is different and involves a variety of underlying influences and triggers. However, the result is the same, whether it’s alcohol, a prescribed drug or an illicit substance — the brain is changed both structurally and functionally.
Just as treatment is essential for heart disease or diabetes, treatment is a vital aspect to successfully recover from addiction.
With a full continuum of care and unparalleled clinical expertise, our addiction support services are designed with our patients in mind. Our dedicated team of clinicians and counselors takes the time to understand your unique needs, including your background, specific addiction and any co-occurring conditions you may have.
While every program we offer shares the same medical and clinical structure, we recognize that one size does not fit all. That’s why we customize your treatment plan so you get care that’s appropriate for your age, lifestyle, role and gender. This ensures the best possible experience and outcomes. Whether you’re a busy professional with an Alcohol Use Disorder or a member of the LGBTQ+ community using drugs to cope with stress and anxiety, we have a program for you.
