About DreamLife Recovery

DreamLife Recovery is a treatment center located in Donegal, Pennsylvania. They provide services to adults who are struggling with dual diagnosis or substance abuse disorders. The levels of care available here are detox, partial hospitalization and supportive living.

This facility is pet friendly and offers many amenities including yoga, adventure therapy, hiking, kayaking, reiki and art therapy. They have a veterans program and there is also a program for individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community. They accept TRICARE insurance and a multitude of others.

What sticks out to me the most is all the amenities provided here during your time in treatment. Kayaking helps improve your cardiovascular health, boosts your mood, strengthens your memory and increases your self confidence. Adventure therapy is also part of treatment which brings you outside and connects you with nature. It’s also a great way to release endorphins and relieve stress. This therapy helps you push and test yourself which not only provides you with a sense of accomplishment but also encourages you to try new things.

Art therapy is available here which can not only inspire creativity but this also helps you express yourself non verbally. Sometimes it can be difficult to find the right words to identify the feeling you may be feeling and this is a great solution. Art therapy can also help with managing stress and can provide emotional healing.

They will also introduce you to other evidence-based therapies you can utilize like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT). If you need medication to manage your symptoms then their medication assisted treatment (MAT) program might be a good fit.

They also offer counseling sessions at the group and individual levels. Different topics will be discussed and some of the most common themes include self-acceptance, self-esteem, self-love, misgendering and gender identification issues.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient rehabs specialize in providing comprehensive care for clients who choose to remain in their homes and communities during treatment. Their services may include transitional support for clients stepping down from intensive inpatient programming. Ambulatory medical detox may be provided for clients at low risk for withdrawal complications. Many programs include evening, night, and weekend services to accommodate clients who are working professionals or caregivers. Addiction counseling and life skills training are common treatment modalities.

inpatient iconInpatient Rehab

Inpatient rehab provides clients with an opportunity to focus solely on their sobriety away from the stressors of the home and workplace. Clients receive housing, food, and intensive clinical supervision. They also typically engage in multiple addiction counseling sessions each week, including daily individual, group, and/or family sessions. Most programs also prioritize recovery-focused life skills training, including courses in relapse prevention. Many facilities offer evidence-based holistic therapies, such as yoga and meditation.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

Clients engaged in intensive outpatient programs (IOP) live and work in their home community while receiving frequent, high-level care. These programs offer personalized care designed to evolve with the clients' changing needs. Many intensive outpatient rehabs require a minimum of nine hours of treatment per week, but high-risk clients and those in early recovery may receive up to 20 hours of care weekly. IOP services generally include addiction counseling, recovery education, and holistic therapies, such as massage.

aftercare iconAftercare

Clients receiving services from a rehab aftercare program are usually stable and in the maintenance phase of recovery, having completed detox and/or intensive inpatient treatment. Rehab aftercare services can vary widely based on clients' individual and evolving needs, but often include peer coaching, relapse prevention support, 12 step program induction, and medical, mental health, and social service referrals. Individual care plans are typically developed by the client in partnership with their case manager and care team.

12-step icon12-Step

12 step programs prioritize the recovery journey as a life-long process based on personal spiritual growth and ongoing peer support. Regular attendance at 12 step meetings, which are held multiple times each day in most communities, is expected. Participants also receive one-on-one mentoring by a self-selected peer sponsor. The 12 steps are designed to encourage participants' self-compassion, awareness, acceptance, and accountability. Dedicated programs for specialized groups, including seniors, teens, and families, are common.

24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care

Because the severity of withdrawal symptoms can fluctuate, constant monitoring under 24-hour clinical care in Pennsylvania is recommended for early recovery. As you undergo detox, medical staff will supervise your health and ensure severe symptoms do not develop or threaten your life. Professional counselors will also be available to treat mental and emotional health needs.

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal. The length of stay at the detoxification program is determined according to the specific needs of the patient.

check iconDual Diagnosis

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

substance-abuse iconSubstance Abuse

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

dialectical iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Group therapy sessions in Pennsylvania offer you a safe space when you're struggling with drug and alcohol addiction. You can openly discuss your challenges and the progress you're making in rehabilitation. Sharing this responsibility with others in your group fosters a commitment to sobriety and helps create strong bonds with your peers.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

Motivational interviewing in Pennsylvania gives you the opportunity to share your perspective and explore your ideas and motivation for change. Your therapist will walk you through the four steps of engaging, focusing, evoking, and planning to empower you to make any desired changes in your life.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

It is important to process the impact that traumatic experiences have had on your life. During trauma therapy, you and an experienced therapist confront these experiences and the emotional impact it is had. This helps to reduce your symptoms of stress and anxiety and improve your overall mental health and well being.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

eye-movement iconEye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

EMDR is a therapeutic modality originally developed to help process trauma. In an EMDR session, a patient is prompted to undergo eye movements that mimic those of REM sleep. This is accomplished by watching a therapist's finger move back and forth across, or following a bar of light. The goal is repetitive sets of eye movements that help the brain reprocess memory, which can significantly reduce the intensity of remembered traumatic incidents. Associated memories can heal simultaneously, leaving patients significantly calmer, more stable, and more emotionally relaxed.

family iconFamily Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

life-skills iconLife Skills

Life skills are the mental and social skills that are necessary to navigate day to day life. Addiction diminishes or eliminates these skills, so they must be relearned and practiced during drug rehab treatment in Pennsylvania.

This place is horrible. I flew 1800 miles from Dallas to Pennsylvania for "treatment" . So I flew out there, alone, didn't know anyone there. They knew about my health issues before admitting me and assured me I would be well taken care of. Instead, they kept making me go to ... Read More

Avoid this recovery place like the plague. On the outside and virtual tours it looked like an amazing place I was eager to send my loved on off to get help. However my gut feeling was that something was wrong I should've listened to it.If you can get communication out of any of the people that are employed there you should play the lottery! I was only able to talk to my loved one after enough hell was raised, Curtis did not reply to any emails, calls or texts. The case manager? I only talked to once and only was interested in what I wanted since I was the Power of Attorney.Good thing I've got excellent insurance cause I'd refuse to pay this place a dime after how they locked my loved one away without communication to their family.Don't get me started with their HR.... Voicemailbox always full anytime I called, they even picked up the phone cause I could hear it then hung it back up and sent me to voicemail. Reception? No answer. Nurse station? No answer. Almost decided to call maintenance. The only ones that would answer the phone was admittance... Imagine that!!! This needs an entire reform...Heed my warning stay away from Dreamlife Recovery in PA. I very much regret sending my loved one there and should have listened to my gut feeling don't make the same mistake I did. So far Crestview in Ashville NC has been a night and day difference send your loved one there if you wish to talk to them throughout their treatment.

This place is terrible! Your loved one is in there without contact with their family for 35 days. Even a felon can talk to their family. And good luck reaching anyone who works there because their message service is full! If the owner was worth anything they would correct this problem! If I owned it, I would fire everyone there and rehire new employees with proper training. Then again, I don't think much of the owner because I am sure that they are aware!! Now, if you can go to Crestview; Asheville location....it's like night and day!!!! Avoid this place like the plague!!!!! I think this place is an insurance scam!!!!

Think twice about trusting the people here with caring for your loved one. They were beyond disrespectful to a potential patient who was struggling with the decision to go. Getting into a literal yelling match is so unprofessional and appalling to me. I would think they would deal with this often. It's hard. All that was accomplished was making the alcoholic want to go drink....and not go for recovery here. An addict has to make their own decisions to get well. Someone else can't do it for them. Good luck finding a place to heal where you will be treated respectfully.

Flew all the way from Dallas Texas to get treatment 1800 miles away.The staff was rude, I got admitted to the hospital and they didn't return all of my belongings including cigarettes and vapes that I paid for. They knew about all of my health issues before accepting me. This last week I got really sick and ended up in the Emergency Room. Mind you..I'm by myself and have never been here before. Upon discharge from the hospital, Dream Life refused to come pick me up or bring me my belongings and just left me stranded at the hospital. 35 day program they say? There were people that had been there anywhere from 80 to 100 days with no idea when they were leaving. The staff is rude, and they only look at you and see dollar signs. It is an awful experience and I am still stuck here trying to to get back to Dallas. Strongly do not consider this place. Please. For your own sanity. They will keep you as long as they want, and force you to go to PHP. It is like pulling teeth to get a phone call, and to have a "treatment" center leave me stranded 1800 miles away from home, where I knew NOBODY...that's just heartless. Please read up on this place before you agree to go. Do research...it truly is a horrible place.

My sister has been there four times and all they do is turn and burn her. All they want is insurance money. They accept her because she has a dog. I went there for recovery five years ago and I ve done fine since. Shame on them for using animals. Just turn and burn the insurance companies

This was my first rehab/treatment experience and I had no idea what to expect. From the day I arrived I was treated with kindness, compassion and professionalism. The therapists are top notch and you can tell, from the clinical staff to the nurses to the techs and admin, everyone sincerely cares about the client's treatment and recovery. This is not a one size fits all program, they make an effort to get to know the individual and provide care that supports recovery and prevents relapse. I'm so thankful I came here.
