About Psych and Psych Services
Psych and Psych Services in Elyria, Ohio is a CARF-accredited outpatient clinic offering Outpatient Program and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) levels of care for adults navigating addiction and co-occurring disorders. Certified by the Ohio Mental Health and Addiction Services Board, the clinic accepts Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, and private insurance, making structured outpatient recovery accessible across Lorain County.
Psych and Psych Services is a CARF-accredited outpatient clinic located at 750 South Abbe Road in Elyria, Ohio, serving adults in Lorain County who are working through addiction, co-occurring mental health conditions, and related life challenges. Fully certified by the Ohio Mental Health and Addiction Services Board, the facility operates seven days a week — including evenings on weekdays — giving people in recovery real scheduling flexibility without requiring them to leave their jobs, families, or communities.
The clinic offers two distinct outpatient levels of care: a standard Outpatient Program and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). The IOP provides a higher level of structured support than traditional outpatient, making it a meaningful option for people stepping down from residential treatment or those who need more than weekly sessions to sustain early recovery. Both tracks are designed to support longer-term recovery goals rather than crisis-only intervention.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) anchors the clinical work at Psych and Psych Services. CBT is a well-established, skills-focused therapy approach that helps clients identify and shift the thought patterns driving harmful behaviors — a practical fit for people managing addiction alongside trauma, dual diagnosis, or relationship difficulties. The clinic's scope explicitly covers co-occurring disorders, trauma and PTSD, survivors of abuse, and broader life and family issues, recognizing that sustained recovery rarely involves a single diagnosis.
Psych and Psych Services serves both men and women, and accepts a wide range of payment options including Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, sliding scale fees, and self-pay. That breadth of financial access, combined with seven-day availability and dual-diagnosis treatment capacity, positions the clinic as a practical long-term recovery partner for individuals and families throughout the Elyria area.
Outpatient Addiction Treatment and IOP in Elyria, Ohio
Psych and Psych Services operates as a dedicated outpatient clinic on South Abbe Road in Elyria, providing structured addiction treatment and mental health counseling without requiring residential stays. For adults in Lorain County who need consistent clinical support while remaining embedded in their daily lives, the clinic offers both a standard Outpatient Program and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) — two levels of care calibrated to different stages and intensities of the recovery process.
The IOP is particularly well-suited for people who have completed a residential or higher-level program and need a bridge to independent recovery, or for those whose circumstances call for more frequent clinical contact than weekly outpatient sessions provide. With evening hours available Monday through Friday and weekend availability, scheduling treatment around work, childcare, or other commitments is genuinely workable rather than aspirational.
Co-occurring Disorders and Dual Diagnosis Treatment
A defining feature of Psych and Psych Services is its explicit focus on co-occurring disorders — meaning the clinic is equipped to address addiction and mental health conditions together rather than in isolation. The clinic's confirmed treatment scope includes trauma and PTSD, dual diagnosis, survivors of abuse, relationship issues, and broader life and family challenges. For people in recovery who carry more than one diagnosis, this integrated approach reflects how treatment actually needs to work.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) provides the clinical foundation, offering clients concrete skills for recognizing and redirecting the thought and behavior patterns that sustain substance use and emotional distress. This structured, skills-based modality translates directly into the kind of daily coping capacity that long-term recovery depends on.
Insurance, Payment Options, and Access to Care
Financial barriers are among the most common reasons people delay or avoid treatment. Psych and Psych Services accepts a wide range of payment options — including Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, sliding scale fees, and self-pay — making outpatient addiction treatment accessible to a broad cross-section of adults in the Elyria area regardless of insurance status.
TRICARE coverage is specifically confirmed, which is meaningful for active-duty service members, veterans, and military families in Lorain County seeking outpatient addiction treatment or co-occurring disorder support. The combination of diverse payment acceptance and seven-day operating hours reduces two of the most common practical obstacles to starting and sustaining a recovery program.
Accreditation and Certification: What They Mean for Your Recovery
Psych and Psych Services holds CARF accreditation — an internationally recognized standard that evaluates treatment programs against rigorous quality and outcomes benchmarks. CARF accreditation is not automatic; facilities must demonstrate consistent, person-centered service delivery to earn and maintain it. For individuals and families evaluating outpatient programs, it serves as an independent confirmation of program quality beyond self-reported claims.
The clinic is also fully certified by the Ohio Mental Health and Addiction Services Board, the state regulatory body overseeing addiction and mental health treatment providers in Ohio. Together, these two credentials offer meaningful assurance that Psych and Psych Services meets established professional standards for outpatient addiction treatment and dual diagnosis care in the state.

Frequently Asked Questions
What levels of care does Psych and Psych Services offer for addiction treatment?
Psych and Psych Services offers two outpatient levels of care: a standard Outpatient Program and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). The IOP provides more frequent and structured clinical contact than traditional outpatient, making it appropriate for people stepping down from residential treatment or those who need a stronger support structure during early recovery. Both are delivered on an outpatient basis, allowing clients to remain in their community throughout treatment.
Is Psych and Psych Services equipped to treat co-occurring mental health conditions alongside addiction?
Yes. Co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis are explicitly within the clinic's treatment scope. The facility also addresses trauma and PTSD, survivors of abuse, relationship issues, and life and family challenges — conditions that frequently intersect with substance use disorders. This integrated focus means clients with more than one diagnosis do not need to seek separate providers for mental health and addiction care.
What therapy approach does the clinic use?
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the confirmed therapeutic method used at Psych and Psych Services. CBT is a structured, skills-based approach that helps clients identify the thoughts and behaviors contributing to substance use and mental health difficulties. It is widely used in outpatient addiction treatment and dual diagnosis care because it equips people with practical tools they can apply outside of sessions.
What are the clinic's hours, and can I attend treatment while working?
Psych and Psych Services is open seven days a week. Monday through Friday hours run from 8am to 8pm, Saturday from 8am to 6pm, and Sunday from 8am to 5pm. The extended weekday evening hours are specifically designed to accommodate people who work during the day, removing a common scheduling barrier to consistent outpatient treatment participation.
Does Psych and Psych Services accept Medicaid or Medicare?
Yes, the clinic accepts both Medicaid and Medicare, along with private insurance, TRICARE, state insurance, sliding scale fees, and self-pay. This broad range of accepted payment methods is intended to reduce financial barriers to accessing outpatient addiction treatment and mental health services in the Elyria area.
Is Psych and Psych Services accredited?
Yes. The clinic holds CARF accreditation, an internationally recognized quality standard for behavioral health and addiction treatment programs, and is fully certified by the Ohio Mental Health and Addiction Services Board. These credentials are independently verified indicators of program quality, not self-reported designations.
Does the clinic serve veterans or military families?

This makes the clinic an accessible option for military-connected individuals in Lorain County seeking outpatient addiction treatment or support for co-occurring conditions such as trauma and PTSD.
Who does Psych and Psych Services serve?
The clinic serves adult men and women. Its treatment scope covers addiction, co-occurring disorders, trauma and PTSD, survivors of abuse, relationship issues, and life and family challenges.

Where is Psych and Psych Services located?

Is the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) a good fit after completing residential treatment?
An IOP is a common and clinically appropriate step-down level of care after residential or inpatient treatment. At Psych and Psych Services, the IOP provides more structured support than a standard outpatient program, helping people consolidate recovery skills and maintain clinical accountability as they transition back to independent daily life. The clinic's dual diagnosis and trauma-informed scope also supports people managing complex needs during this transition.
