Support That Helps Recovery Last
Certified by SAMHSALicensed by the State and DEAAccredited by a SAMHSA-approved OTP agencyYes. Counseling is necessary for everyone in a methadone program as a core part of treatment. Individual and group therapy give patients the skills and support that medication alone cannot provide. Counseling creates the space to:
Ease withdrawal symptoms
Reduce overwhelming cravings
Help you feel steady, physically and mentally
Prevent relapse and support long-term recovery
This combination of medication and therapy is known as methadone maintenance counseling or methadone treatment counseling. Together, they provide a balanced path to recovery.
One-on-one therapy tailored to your history, needs, and goals.
Group counseling in a methadone clinic: weekly, with up to 10 people.
Evidence-based counseling techniques: CBT, DBT, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, relapse prevention, trauma-informed care, and more.
Affordable & accessible: Medicaid, major insurance, or $50/week self-pay.
Licensed, SAMHSA-certified, DEA-approved, and OTP accredited.
Every person’s recovery story is different. That’s why we offer two forms of counseling to support you throughout treatment.
In private, one-on-one sessions, you’ll meet with a counselor who listens without judgment and helps you create a plan based on your goals. These sessions are designed to give you space to process your experiences and receive personal guidance.
Each week, patients have the option to participate in group counseling. Groups are small, with no more than ten people, so that everyone has a chance to speak and connect. Guided by a trained counselor, groups provide a sense of community and shared accountability that can be just as powerful as medication in keeping recovery on track.
Counseling in a methadone program isn’t one-size-fits-all. Different approaches are combined to meet your needs and give you practical tools for recovery. At Revive Treatment Centers, our counselors use evidence-based methods such as:
Relapse prevention planning: gives you tools to spot triggers early and avoid setbacks.
Motivational interviewing: helps you find your own reasons for recovery and strengthen your drive to stay on track.
Mindfulness and meditation: teaches ways to calm your mind and manage stress in the moment.
Abstinence skills-building: strengthens your ability to say no in real-world situations.
Trauma-informed care: makes sure your past experiences are respected and handled without judgment.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): shows how to recognize thought patterns that fuel relapse and replace them with healthier ones.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): builds skills for handling strong emotions and improving relationships.
Psycho-educational materials: clear resources that explain addiction, treatment, and recovery step by step.Disease transmission awareness: provides education to protect your health and lower risks.
Each patient’s plan may look different, but the goal is always the same: to give you the knowledge, skills, and support to maintain stability and build a healthier future.
At Revive Treatment Centers, your care is backed by the highest standards. We’re fully licensed in Illinois, certified by SAMHSA, accredited through a SAMHSA-approved OTP agency, and licensed by the DEA, so you can feel confident that your treatment meets strict safety and quality standards.
We also make care accessible. Individual and group counseling, along with methadone treatment, are covered by Medicaid and most major insurance plans, including CountyCare, Molina, Meridian, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, and Humana. If you don’t have insurance, self-pay is available at just $50 per week. That means safe, professional care is within reach, no matter your situation.
Starting treatment can feel overwhelming, which is why we make the first steps as clear and simple as possible.
During your first week, you’ll meet with our medical staff to confirm that methadone is the right treatment for you.
You’ll sit down with a counselor who will learn about your history, your mental health, and your recovery goals. Together, you’ll create a treatment plan that fits your life.
You’ll complete a urine drug screen, and within the first two weeks, a physical exam, TB test, and basic lab work.
These steps are designed to keep you safe and supported. At every point, our team walks you through what to expect so there are no surprises.

Counseling here is not a box to tick for your dosing privileges. It is where the reasons underneath opioid use get worked on, which is the part that determines whether treatment holds after the medication has done its job.
Mostly listening. You will be asked about your history, what you have already tried, what you want out of this, and what is currently hardest. You do not have to have answers ready, and you are not required to disclose anything you are not ready to say. Nothing you say changes your access to medication — that is worth stating plainly, because people often assume otherwise and hold back for months.
More often early on, less as you stabilise. Frequency is set with your counselor around your actual schedule — work, childcare, transport — rather than a fixed template. If the schedule stops working, that is a conversation, not a reason to drop out.
Substance use treatment records carry federal protections stricter than standard medical privacy rules. Your employer does not get told. Your family does not get told unless you ask us to involve them. If you are involved with courts or probation, what is shared is limited and you will know exactly what it is before anything is sent.
If weekly counseling is not enough structure on its own, our intensive outpatient program runs several sessions a week.
