Gillis offers outpatient treatment for individuals who do not require residential care but need structured professional support. The facility specializes in treating co-occurring mental and substance use disorders, recognizing that mental health conditions and addiction often occur together and require integrated treatment approaches. Gillis also serves criminal justice-involved clients, providing court-referred individuals with evidence-based programming that supports long-term recovery and successful reintegration.

Gillis accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private health insurance, ensuring that most insured patients can access treatment with minimal out-of-pocket costs. The facility also welcomes self-payment and cash options for uninsured individuals. Payment assistance programs may be available—prospective patients are encouraged to contact the facility directly to discuss financial options and determine what payment plan works best for their situation. Under the Mental Health Parity Act, insurance plans must cover mental health and substance use treatment at the same level as other medical conditions, so cost should never be a barrier to receiving the care you need.
