inpatient iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

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.

mental-health iconMental Health

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

Cognitive Behavior Therapy

dialectical iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical behavior therapy in Pennsylvania is an evidence based technique that involves group therapy, individual therapy, and phone coaching. Group sessions focus on learning behavioral skills. Individual therapy gives you the opportunity to apply what you're learning to your personal situations. Phone coaching allows you to call your therapist during the week for help with challenging situations.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

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.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

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.

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.

art-brush iconCreative Arts Therapy

Artistic talent is not required to participate in creative arts therapy. This form of rehab treatment in Pennsylvania simply allows you to try different art media and use the one that works best for you to express yourself. The goal is not to produce quality art but to use the creative process as an outlet for recovery.

Harbor Creek youth services saved my lifeAs a child I was a hard case to say the leastThey taught me to be a human being..They taught me the fundamentals of being a functional member of society..This was the mid 90'sI am now a business owner if it was not for them I wouldn't be where I am today I'd be locked up or worseLynn Lombardo your still my hero even tho we never really got along you saved my life!! An I thank you

Response from the owner1 year ago
Matt! Thank you so much for taking the time to write and to let us know how successful you've become. On behalf of all of us - these kinds of success stories make our day! If you were here in the 90's, our programs since then and how the agency works have changed a lot - we no longer work with juvenile justice but in Behavioral Health - specifically with kids who have a history of complex trauma. However, one of the leaders at the forefront of that change was Len Lombardo, who is now our Director of Residential Services after serving here for 37+ years! Even though our services have changed, our basic mission of helping kids and their families always remained the goal, and we are honored we could be a part of your story.

This place is abusive. They physically harm the clients. They say very hurtful things. I stayed in my dorm 90% of the time because I was worried about being abused by staff and residents. I am permanently traumatized from being here. The therapist never helped. They left red mark and burns from dragging me on the ground. Please save your child s childhood. This place hurt me. And it will hurt more

Was there 30 years ago. The staff were childish, vindictive and ill prepared to deal with inner city kids. We were a novelty. I remember seeing my counselor break another mans nose over a basketball game! I was 13 and that was the behavior I was supposed to learn from. It was a sad place to say the least.

Response from the owner5 years ago
Mr. Davis, we are so sorry to learn this. We can assure you that our program today operates with the highest standards and the greatest concern for the welfare of our youth. We wish you all the best.

If i could give a 0 i would. Place is a joke 3 weeks in and its all a lie. Working on pulling my kid out. Dont reccomend sending a child here as a rtf. The director leaves early it seems like everyday never their when they open. The staff has been very disrespectful towards me. No communication at all in the 3 weeks my son has been their. The director is a coward knows im upset and still wont call me back about staff issues.

I only have a minimal experience with Harborcreek Youth Services. I've presented two programs there on the topic of Healthy Relationships and Learning How to Set Boundaries. All's I can say is that every time I've been there, the staff has been super friendly and they really do their best at encouraging the youth. They live, work, and breathe something called 'the Sanctuary Model'. This creates a very comfortable and welcoming atmosphere that really changes the environment to one thats more positive and understanding of the youths' background. HCYS truly seems like a special place with very caring people.

Response from the owner5 years ago
Thanks for your review, Daniel! We are big believers in The Sanctuary Model of Care and we do our best to make sure staff, kids, administration, our board - everyone - knows that they're supported in a trauma-informed, safe environment. We really care about the kids and families we serve and want the best for them while they're with us, and once they head back home. Thanks for recognizing that and for working with our staff!
