About Symetria Recovery
Symetria Recovery provides full outpatient care through the Symetria Method®. The center helps individuals struggling with addictions involving benzodiazepines, codeine, fentanyl, heroin, hydrocodone, opioids, oxycodone, and prescription medications. Its distinctive model for opioid dependence blends medication-assisted treatment (MAT) with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in an outpatient format. As a dual-diagnosis provider, Symetria supports clients with coordinated medication, counseling, and relapse-prevention planning in one place. Patients can meet with the clinical team to choose the appropriate medication or combination of medications for their needs. Symetria offers Methadone, Vivitrol, and Suboxone, and its intensive outpatient program (IOP) includes unlimited individual counseling sessions as well as group therapy several times each week. The goal at Symetria is to make long-term sobriety achievable for everyone in a respectful, non-judgmental setting, with no waitlist.
Symetria Recovery operates in Illinois and Texas. Symetria Palos Heights serves the southwest Chicago suburb area. Clients can feel confident they’ll receive high-quality, evidence-based treatment that helps. Harvard-led data indicates that Symetria is 80% more likely than other clinics or rehabs in the state to help people stop using drugs permanently.
