About Human Resources Development Inst Professional Counseling Services
Human Resources Development Institute Professional Counseling Services provides outpatient addiction treatment and mental health services for adults on Chicago's South Side. Operating since 1974, this CARF-accredited recovery center offers flexible treatment options with financial assistance to support lasting recovery.
Human Resources Development Institute Professional Counseling Services operates as a community-focused outpatient clinic serving Chicago's South Side and Cook County since 1974. Located on South Racine Avenue, this established recovery center has built nearly five decades of experience providing addiction treatment and mental health services to adults seeking sustainable recovery solutions.
The center specializes in outpatient programs and intensive outpatient (IOP) treatment, offering flexible scheduling that allows clients to maintain work, family, and community connections while receiving professional substance abuse treatment. Their programs address alcohol use disorder, drug addiction, opioid use disorder, mental health conditions, and trauma-related concerns. Recovery support services and case management help clients navigate their ongoing recovery journey beyond initial treatment completion.
Treatment approaches center on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), helping clients develop practical skills for managing triggers, changing destructive thought patterns, and building healthier coping strategies. The center's CARF accreditation demonstrates their commitment to maintaining quality standards in addiction treatment delivery. Their clinical team works with both men and women in adult populations, recognizing that successful recovery requires addressing underlying mental health concerns alongside substance use disorders.
The facility serves adults throughout the South Side and broader Cook County area, accepting Medicaid, state insurance, and offering sliding scale fees with payment assistance options. Their commitment to providing services regardless of ability to pay removes financial barriers that often prevent people from accessing needed addiction treatment. With aftercare support including ongoing recovery services and case management, clients can build connections within the recovery community while developing long-term sobriety skills.
