About DUI Community Counseling Inc

DUI Community Counseling Inc is a Chicago outpatient counseling practice near Midway International Airport that focuses on people facing DUI charges or other alcohol- and drug-related court requirements. Monica Orozco, a certified alcohol and drug counselor, founded the practice in 2010 so people could get confidential, judgment-free help while meeting their legal obligations. They are licensed by the Illinois Division of Substance Use Prevention and Recovery and appear on the approved DUI provider lists for the Cook and DuPage County circuit courts. Their services include alcohol and drug evaluations, risk education classes, early intervention counseling, and Level 2 outpatient and intensive outpatient treatment, with sessions held by appointment either in person or online.

Care usually starts with a 90-minute assessment that determines whether a substance use disorder is present and assigns a DUI risk classification. Minimal-risk clients complete a 10-hour education course covering how alcohol and drugs affect judgment, behavior, and driving. Higher risk levels add early intervention counseling, outpatient treatment, or 75 hours of intensive outpatient work, followed by continuing care over six to 12 months, and longer stays are available when needed. They also offer DOT and non-DOT drug testing, court monitoring support, case management, and help with Secretary of State reports, hearings, and denial responses for people trying to get their driving privileges back. Payment is private pay, and they offer payment plans and income-based discounts for those who qualify.
