About Amethyst House
Established in 1980, Amethyst House has been dedicated to providing addiction recovery services in Bloomington and Evansville, Indiana, through a focus on evidence-based, client-centered approaches. The program emphasizes a twelve-step model, requiring residents to participate in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA) meetings, follow an outpatient regimen post-residential treatment, and secure employment. To enter the residential program, individuals must generally be at least five days sober, unless they have been directly transferred from a detox facility or hospital. Priority admission is given to pregnant women and intravenous drug users, and there are provisions for dependents to reside at the center when space permits. The residential accommodations are separated by gender, featuring shared bedrooms, access to laundry facilities, exercise amenities, and a communal kitchen for meal preparation.
After finishing the residential phase, clients are obligated to engage in outpatient services offered by Amethyst House. A comprehensive assessment is conducted to identify the appropriate level of care tailored to each individual, leading to the formation of small groups of 8-10 participants. The center employs various therapeutic strategies, including Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, individual and family counseling. During outpatient care, licensed clinical staff also provide evaluation and treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Amethyst House holds accreditation from the Commission for Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities and the Division of Mental Health and Addictions. It accepts Indiana Medicaid and various managed care plans for residential services, along with a range of insurance providers like United Healthcare, Aetna, Anthem, and Healthsmart for outpatient care.
