Specialized treatment for professionals struggling with substance use disorders offering PHP (partial hospitalization program), IOP (intensive hospitalization program), and Evening IOP (tailored for working professionals).
For adults with career and family responsibilities, seeking treatment for addiction isn’t easy.
At Positive Sobriety Institute, we have years of experience providing for the specific treatment needs of professionals in an environment that is safe, discreet, and supportive. Our sole focus is helping motivated adults regain their health, restore their relationships and resume their livelihoods. Lifelong recovery is the standard of excellence we pursue every day, with every patient.
Positive Sobriety Institute has successfully helped hundreds of professionals overcome addiction and dual disorders to achieve a fulfilling life in recovery. Our comprehensive, evidence-based approach combines medical and holistic therapies to heal the mind, body and spirit.
Our collaboration with the top-ranked Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine provides patients with complex health issues access to a wide array of medical specialists.
Our treatment team includes board-certified physicians, psychiatrists, nurse practitioners and therapists with specialized training in addiction medicine – a caliber of care that is rare for addiction treatment centers. Physicians are on-site, guiding and providing treatment for each patient.
With an average age of 45, the majority of individuals seeking treatment at PSI are adults with established careers. Our discreet, supportive environment enables professionals to recover among peers who have been through similar challenges and can relate. Many of our alumni keep in touch and continue to support each other in recovery long after treatment.
We are experienced in working with state boards, licensure departments, caduceus groups, employers, referral sources and other professional health programs to help individuals transition safely back into the workplace. We treat a wide range of addicted professionals including physicians, nurses, attorneys, executives, pilots, dentists, athletes and more.
Leading our extraordinary team is Dr. Daniel Angres, a nationally recognized expert in psychiatry, addiction and substance abuse treatment, and physicians’ health programs. Triple board certified in Addiction Medicine, Psychiatry and Neurology, and Addiction Psychiatry, Dr. Angres also serves as Adjunct Associate Professor of Psychiatry at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. He has been published extensively in peer-reviewed journals, lectured at major academic medical centers, and authored groundbreaking books on substance abuse treatment and recovery, including “Healing the Healer” and “Positive Sobriety.”
Dr. Angres is also the recent recipient of the Innovation in Physician Wellness Award from the Illinois Psychiatric Society.
Our substance use disorder treatment encompasses evaluation and assessment of substance use patterns, physical and mental health, medical history, and genetic testing. Essentially, this treatment plan incorporates every therapeutic strategy needed to reclaim life from addiction.
Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) in Chicago provides clients with the opportunity to engage in intensive treatment for almost a week. Individuals receive 4-6 hours of high-quality psychological care each day. This program also incorporates the residential substance abuse treatment approach with the flexibility of returning home at night.
With day and evening hours, our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) provides substance abuse treatment in a comfortable, convenient location. Ideal for those not needing medical detox or 24/7 supervision, IOPs help in transitioning from residential care or act as an alternative to inpatient treatment.
