About Symetria Recovery

Symetria Recovery’s Joliet clinic is an outpatient addiction treatment program serving Will and Kendall counties, built around medication for opioid and alcohol use disorders paired with counseling. Their approach, which they call The Symetria Method, brings medication-assisted treatment, psychiatry, and behavioral counseling together under one roof for people who can’t step away from work or family for a month-long stay. Care includes methadone and Suboxone treatment, an intensive outpatient program, and standard outpatient, with patients typically moving from daily dosing and IOP toward weekly visits as they stabilize. Methadone can be started the same day as the assessment, and no one needs to be sober before coming in.

The IOP meets Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings for about three hours, with groups of twelve or fewer led by licensed counselors, skills workshops, and a Friday progress review; most people stay nine to twelve weeks, though there’s no fixed end date, and some sessions can be attended virtually. On the medication side, methadone is dispensed on-site, Suboxone can be used for a short taper or longer-term care, and naltrexone is available orally or as a Vivitrol injection to block opioids and curb alcohol cravings. Patients also have access to unlimited one-on-one counseling, on-site psychiatry for depression, anxiety, and trauma, family sessions, case management, and a weekly SMART Recovery group. People who continue using aren’t removed from treatment; instead, their providers adjust the plan, and early 6:30 AM weekday dosing plus Saturday morning hours make it easier to keep a job while in care.
