Being able to be yourself in treatment
Treatment works best when you can talk honestly about your life: your partner, your family, your gender, where and why you use. In a program that runs an LGBTQ group, those conversations are expected rather than awkward. Ask any program how staff are trained and how they handle names, pronouns and rooming.
See questions to ask an LGBTQ rehab before you commit.
Care that includes transgender and nonbinary people
Transgender and nonbinary people often report being misgendered or treated poorly in health care settings, which can make treatment feel unsafe. Before you enroll, ask how the program handles names and pronouns, room assignments, bathrooms and continuing gender-affirming hormones.
Read our transgender rehab guide for more.
Residential or outpatient?
The right level of care depends on how much you use, your health, your living situation and past attempts to stop. A program's intake assessment, usually based on ASAM criteria, will recommend a starting level.
Outpatient and IOP options near Wausau
If you need to keep working or caring for family, outpatient care may fit. 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. Intensive outpatient programs usually meet several days a week, and partial hospitalization runs most of the day while you sleep at home. See LGBTQ IOP and day programs.
