Drug Rehab in Joliet, IL

Yes, Methadone can be prescribed the same day as the assessment. Getting access to Suboxone® has to wait until you are physically in withdrawal. Most patients schedule a same-day or next-day assessment. Intake assessments run Monday through Friday 6:30 AM to 3 PM and Saturday 7 to 8:30 AM.

Our clinic is at 229 N Hammes Avenue, just west of Joliet West High School and east of Ascension Saint Joseph Hospital. We are the only Symetria location in Will and Kendall counties and the closest Symetria clinic for southwest Chicagoland. Suboxone® refills are available at your local pharmacy or for pickup at our clinic.

Both medications are prescribed at our Hammes Avenue clinic. The choice depends on how heavy your opioid use has been and whether daily clinic dosing or a take-home prescription fits your life better. Methadone has no withdrawal-wait requirement; Suboxone® does.

Our IOP meetings are scheduled on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 9:00 AM to 12:15 PM. That is nine hours of weekday morning counseling led by a licensed addiction counselor. Our group size is small by design. Sessions cover triggers, coping skills, and the patterns that keep substance use in your life. One-on-one counseling slots are unlimited and come in addition to the group sessions.

No, you do not need to be sober before you start. Patients arriving in active use are welcome here. The intake conversation works with where you are that day. If you keep using during treatment, your medical provider adjusts the plan based on how you are doing.

Yes, you can keep working. The 6:30 AM dosing window is the earliest in our network and exists specifically because Will County patients commute to work. Many of our patients come in for their dose before a 7 AM shift in Plainfield, Shorewood, or Romeoville and never miss work. IOP, outpatient counseling, and one-on-one sessions all run on weekday mornings, so treatment fits before or around your shift.

Yes, depression, anxiety, and trauma sit underneath substance use for many of our patients. Our on-site psychiatry team treats both at once, so you do not bounce between providers or argue with insurance about which condition gets covered.

We protect your records under HIPAA. Nothing is shared with your employer, your family, or anyone else without your written consent. The clinic has discreet parking and a discreet entrance for the same reason.

You can find us at 229 N Hammes Avenue, between the high school and the hospital. From I-80, take Larkin Avenue exit. From I-55, take 53 north into Joliet. Pace bus 505 stops at the Glenwood and Hammes corner. Parking is on-site and free.

It depends on the medication and program you are enrolled in. An IOP typically runs nine to twelve weeks, then moves to weekly outpatient. Methadone treatment is long-term, and many patients stay engaged for years. Suboxone® is similar. The right length is the one that keeps you stable.
