About this facility
Outpatient Rehab in Dayton
Leora Behavioral Health has two outpatient clinics in Ohio. The Dayton one, on Patterson Road, is a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center and a mental health treatment center under one roof: ambulatory detox, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, outpatient care, medication assisted treatment and case management, Monday to Friday. Leora’s other facility is in Columbus.
Nobody stays overnight, and there are no sober living houses. Rehab here is a schedule of therapy and medical care, anywhere from a full weekday in partial hospitalization down to two to four hours of group a week in outpatient, plus individual appointments, and the level changes as your needs change.

Who comes here
Who the Dayton Facility Is For
People asking for help for the first time. You do not need a diagnosis or a referral to call. The assessment works out what is going on, a substance use problem, a mental health condition or both, and which level of care fits it. The assessment sets the starting level; the level changes from there as your needs change.
People leaving a hospital or a residential program who need structure during the day without a bed at night. Partial hospitalization runs Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 4:15 pm, and intensive outpatient three hours a day on three to five days, so treatment continues while you live at home. Bring your discharge plan to the assessment.
People coming back after a relapse, and people whose drinking or drug use has started to cost them at work or at home. Ambulatory detox manages mild to moderate withdrawal from alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, methamphetamine and other stimulants at the facility, and medication assisted treatment can begin during it.
Family members calling for someone else. Admissions will explain how an assessment works and what the person should bring, and family therapy is one of the services here once treatment starts, with the consent of the person in treatment. Not treated here: withdrawal severe enough to need 24-hour medical supervision, which belongs in a hospital, and any emergency. Call 911, or call or text 988 for thoughts of suicide.
Programs at this facility
Levels of Care in Dayton
- Outpatient Withdrawal Management (Ambulatory Detox)Withdrawal managed at the Dayton facility by nurse practitioners and registered nurses, on a visit schedule set at the assessment, for mild to moderate symptoms. You sleep at home.
- Partial HospitalizationThe full-day program: therapy and education groups through the day in a mental health, dual diagnosis or substance use track, an individual session every week, medication management at least weekly.
- Intensive OutpatientThree hours of group a day on three to five days, in a mental health track or a substance use track, with individual sessions and a nurse practitioner visit every two to three weeks.
- OutpatientThe lightest schedule: two hours of group one or two days a week with individual appointments. For some people it follows intensive outpatient; for others it is the starting point.
Other Services
- Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT)Medication combined with counseling and therapy. It can start during ambulatory detox where it is needed.
- Case ManagementAppointments with a case manager for the practical problems around treatment.
- Virtual IOPBy video anywhere in Ohio: a daytime program for mental health and an evening program for substance use.
The three therapy levels are built on group work, with individual sessions alongside; medication is managed by a nurse practitioner at each of them.

What we treat here
Substance Use and Mental Health
The Dayton facility treats problems with alcohol and drugs in one substance use disorder (SUD) program (the older term is substance abuse treatment): alcohol, opioids including heroin and fentanyl, benzodiazepines, methamphetamine and other stimulants. Detox, where it is needed, comes first; the therapy levels follow.
Alcohol rehab in Dayton starts at the level the assessment sets: ambulatory detox where mild to moderate withdrawal needs managing, and partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient or outpatient care where it does not. You do not have to decide you are an alcoholic before calling; the assessment is the place to work that out. Before discharge the team plans what comes next: a lower level of care, outpatient therapy, and community recovery support such as Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous.
Mental health conditions are treated in their own partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient tracks (the mental health program lists them), and a person with a mental health condition and a substance use disorder at the same time, a dual diagnosis, is treated for both in the dual diagnosis track of partial hospitalization.
Admissions
Your First Visit: the Assessment
Treatment at the Dayton facility starts with an assessment. Call (937) 660-4145 to set a time, or walk in during building hours, Monday to Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. The admissions line itself is answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
At the visit a clinician evaluates your substance use and your mental health and recommends a level of care. Have your photo ID and insurance card with you, a list of the medications you take, and your discharge paperwork if another program sent you. Your coverage is checked on the first call or while you are there.
How long the assessment takes, who conducts it and whether it costs anything are not published on this site. Admissions answers each of those on the phone.
Cost
Insurance and Paying for Treatment
Every Ohio Medicaid plan is accepted at the Dayton facility, and so is every major commercial carrier. The Ohio Medicaid page and the UnitedHealthcare page go into those two; the insurance page covers the rest. What a plan pays for each level of care is plan by plan, and admissions checks yours with you.
There is no price list, self-pay rate or sliding scale on this site. Bills can be paid online at pay.banquest.com/leorabh.
Clinical team
Who Treats You in Dayton
Nurse practitioners and registered nurses run ambulatory detox and handle medication: a nurse practitioner sees each patient for medication management at least once a week in partial hospitalization and every two to three weeks in intensive outpatient and outpatient. Medication assisted treatment for opioid use disorder uses buprenorphine, including the Sublocade and Brixadi injections given here, or extended release naltrexone (Vivitrol); for alcohol use disorder the FDA approved medications are naltrexone, acamprosate and disulfiram, and admissions can say which of them the Dayton facility offers. Methadone is not prescribed here, so this is not a methadone clinic, and people who get methadone from another provider can still be treated. The MAT page has the detail.
Groups and individual therapy are led by licensed therapists and counselors (the licenses Leora lists are LCDCIII, LICDC, LSW, LISW, LPC and LPCC), and a case manager handles the practical side: paperwork, outside services and coordination with your other providers. Names and bios of the Dayton team are not published on this page.
