Flexible Outpatient Care on a Hospital Campus
Located on the Lutheran Hospital campus in Fort Wayne, the program offers structured outpatient and intensive outpatient (IOP) care for adults managing substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. Care is designed for people who need more support than weekly therapy but do not require 24/7 supervision, allowing them to live at home and stay connected to work, school, or family responsibilities while receiving consistent treatment.
Integrated Care for Substance Use and Mental Health
Treatment addresses substance use and mental health conditions together, with services that include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), motivational interviewing, trauma-focused counseling, and relapse prevention planning. Clients participate in individual, group, and family therapy, building skills they can apply in real-life situations as they navigate recovery outside of sessions.
Medication Support and GeneSight Testing
Care plans can include medication management alongside therapy. GeneSight testing is used to help guide medication selection based on how an individual is likely to respond, helping reduce trial-and-error when finding effective options. Medication support is integrated into treatment to address both mental health symptoms and substance use needs as part of ongoing outpatient care.
Practical Support and Continuity of Care
The program includes transportation assistance within Allen County, case management, peer support, recovery coaching, and help accessing housing, employment, and social services. Discharge planning, aftercare, and ongoing follow-up support help people stay connected to care over time. As part of the Indiana Center for Recovery network, the facility can connect clients to higher levels of care if needed, providing continuity without requiring a transition to a completely separate provider. Veterans and active-duty military members have access to programming designed to address their specific experiences and needs.

How we research treatment facilities
Across the site, our team has conducted over 1,000 pre-admissions calls to better understand the patient experience, interviewed facility clinical leaders, performed facility background checks, and compared our information against trusted public data sources.
Our research process begins with data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), accrediting bodies including The Joint Commission and CARF, government licensing agencies, and other trusted sources. From there, our team conducts significant original research, including:
- Pre-admissions calls: We speak with admissions staff to get a candid picture of patient experience.
- Background checks: We review complaints from past clients, media reports, actions taken by accrediting bodies, and positive recognition from notable organizations.
- Clinical interviews: We have in-depth conversations with clinical leadership, often lasting up to one hour, that give us a better understanding of clinical care.
- Data partnerships: We ingest and analyze exclusive data that provides information about in-network insurance status, cost, and more.
Research varies by facility. Each facility profile shows which research steps we completed and when each step was last performed. Learn more about our research process and background checks.
How we evaluate treatment facilities
These data help us develop a Trust Score for each facility—a simple letter grade that helps you assess how much confidence to place in a facility based on the information available to us. Trust Score considers accreditation, operating history, notable recognition, and concerns identified during our background check. Our Trust Score is an objective rating that is never influenced by advertiser payment. Learn more about our Trust Score methodology.
Important disclaimer
We cannot guarantee the quality of treatment at any facility. We cannot independently confirm the accuracy of every data point, and some information may become outdated or change over time. A Trust Score is a starting point, not a guarantee of treatment quality or outcomes. Please contact us if you would like to update or correct facility information.
