Parkside Outpatient Program — Astoria, NY

Records on file indicate this program accepts both Medicaid and Medicare. Specific eligibility rules, covered services, and authorization steps differ by state and plan tier. The admissions team can run a benefits check and walk through any cost-share before you schedule.

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is offered with Buprenorphine used in Treatment, Naltrexone used in Treatment. These FDA-approved medications ease withdrawal and reduce craving while clients begin therapy. The treating physician sets dosing and the long-term plan based on an individual clinical assessment.

Intensive outpatient (IOP) typically runs 9 to 12 hours per week, with morning or evening tracks built around work and school schedules. Programming combines group therapy, individual sessions, and skills practice. Admissions can confirm the cohort schedule and which track has openings.

Yes, this site treats adolescents in an age-appropriate program. Teen tracks typically weave in family sessions, academic continuity supports, and developmentally tailored therapy. Admissions can walk parents and guardians through consent requirements and what a typical week of programming covers.

Gender-responsive programming gives women space to work on trauma, relationships, and parenting in a setting tailored to their needs. Some sites coordinate childcare or family housing alongside treatment. If pregnancy or postpartum care is part of the picture, ask admissions about pregnancy-safe protocols.

Trauma-informed practice runs through the program. Qualifying clients can access EMDR, somatic experiencing, and trauma-focused CBT alongside the standard clinical track. Staff are trained to recognize trauma responses and to keep the therapeutic environment physically and emotionally safe.

Aftercare planning starts well before discharge. Typical paths include step-down to outpatient services, referrals to sober-living homes, alumni group meetings, and warm hand-offs to community recovery resources. Many programs maintain alumni networks so peer support and accountability continue once formal treatment is complete.

Family counseling runs alongside the primary clinical program. Relatives are invited into education sessions, communication-skills practice, and discharge planning so the family system actively supports recovery rather than undermining it. CRAFT principles can inform how loved ones engage with the person in treatment.

Clinicians draw on CBT and Motivational Interviewing adapted for behavioral addictions, paired with financial-recovery planning and connections to peer-support communities focused on gambling recovery.

Transportation assistance is part of the program — appointments, group sessions, and admissions logistics can be supported. Eligibility and service radius depend on the track: outpatient ride support, residential intake pickups, and aftercare appointment transport are typically handled through separate pathways. Admissions can confirm what fits your situation when you call.

Total cost depends on program length, level of care, and the specific services involved. Most sites can set up payment plans or point to outside financing partners.
