Family, rejection and recovery
Many LGBTQ people carry experiences of family rejection or strained relationships into treatment. Research on LGBTQ young people has linked family rejection with higher rates of substance use and depression, while family acceptance is protective.
Good programs make room for chosen family and offer family sessions when they help. Our guide on family rejection and recovery covers this in more depth.
Questions worth asking
If sex and drug use have become linked for you, say so at intake. A good program will address it without judgment as part of relapse prevention.
Outpatient treatment near Wausau
Not every situation calls for a residential stay. We don't list an outpatient program within 25 miles of Wausau; the nearest are farther out, and telehealth counseling may help fill the gap. Outpatient care works best when home is stable and supportive; it's also the usual next step after residential treatment.
Cost and coverage
The cost of treatment depends mostly on the level of care, length of stay and your insurance. Residential care costs the most; outpatient therapy the least. Many programs on SAMHSA's directory accept private insurance, and some offer sliding-scale fees. See our insurance guides.
