About AMS of Wisconsin LLC

AMS of Wisconsin, LLC in Onalaska offers caring, research-informed therapy for adults dealing with opioid use disorders. The center provides outpatient care across the entire spectrum, including intensive outpatient (IOP), regular outpatient services, and aftercare. Many clients start with medically supervised detox to reduce withdrawal safely, then move into medication-assisted treatment with methadone or buprenorphine. Treatment also addresses co-occurring mental health or medical needs. Program intensity and care setting are determined through individualized planning and follow the ASAM placement criteria.

The IOP program is organized but adaptable, with sessions 4 days per week for 2.25 hours each, continuing for 8 weeks. Participants attend about 9 hours of group therapy weekly, with a focus on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), relapse prevention, and 12 Step/Mutual Support approaches. In addition to groups, clients receive individual counseling and life skills instruction, along with recovery programs such as SMART or Celebrate Recovery. Scheduling options include both daytime and evening groups, helping accommodate people who work.

For continuity of treatment, the center also provides convenient guest dosing for individuals who are visiting or relocating temporarily. For a $20 daily fee plus a $25 one-time administrative charge, patients can continue methadone treatment safely while they are away from their usual clinic. This option supports ongoing stability for those traveling for work, family obligations, or vacations and helps them remain consistent with their recovery plan.
