Banyan Heartland
Drug & Alcohol Treatment Center

Recovering from addiction and alcoholism is much easier when patients find the right Illinois drug and alcohol treatment center. Located across 33 sprawling acres in the Illinois countryside, Banyan Heartland offers a peaceful, rural location for men and women who want to overcome their addiction. Previously a spa retreat, our facility is an ideal location for those seeking sobriety. At Banyan Treatment Centers Heartland, our facility combines peaceful solitude with quality amenities to ensure optimal patient comfort during the entire treatment process.

A Top Facility for Residential Drug Treatment in Illinois

Those in search of residential drug and alcohol treatment in Gilman will be impressed with our resources. Our Heartland rehab center focuses on individualized treatment programs to address all of our patients’ needs while also helping them feel as comfortable as possible during the recovery process. With 36 beds, we’re able to provide an ideal staff-to-patient ratio, so that we can ensure that each patient gets the treatment they need to have a successful long-term recovery.

Before beginning residential, PHP, or IOP treatment, patients must first undergo the detox process. Our medically monitored detox services in Illinois help patients safely detox from the harmful substances they are addicted to. Detoxing is a difficult juncture in treatment, but medical detox involves 24-hour supervision to ensure that patients complete the detox process safely.

In addition to our residential and medical detox programs, we offer off-site solutions for drug and alcohol treatment in Illinois. This includes off-site partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs. Each program provides unique solutions that allow patients to meet daily responsibilities outside of the rehab setting while still receiving necessary treatment. While patients are receiving our off-site drug and alcohol treatment in Illinois, many will also continue working.

Christina Scherer

Family Services Coordinator

Christina was born and raised in New Jersey where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Health Studies from Monmouth University. With much uncertainty about which career path she wanted to pursue, Christina found herself involved with the wrong crowd. She began experimenting with drugs and struggled with addiction for eight years. During that period of time, Christina had several unsuccessful treatment attempts, and tried many unconventional methods to achieve sobriety. Upon finding her bottom, she was able to create a plan with the support of her family that landed her in South Florida for long term treatment. Christina began her career at Banyan in early recovery as a receptionist, worked directly with our clients as a case manager, and most recently joined our Family Services team. She recognizes the immense impact that her family has played in her recovery and looks forward to supporting and guiding the families and loved ones of our clients.
