About Malvern Treatment Centers- Willow Grove

Malvern Institute is located in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania. Malvern Institute provides adult intervention, detox, residential services and a full continuum of care.

Malvern Institute believes in treating the patient as an individual. The key to recovery lies in accepting the nature of the disease. The 12-step approach to recovery is proven, effective, and an invaluable part of their program. They believe that by providing their patients with complete understanding of addiction, they will choose the path of lifelong recovery.

Some of the services offered by Malvern Institute include psychiatric assessments, a holistic approach, innovative treatment solutions, a woman’s program based on the Gender-Responsive Treatment Model and Healing Trauma, a Relapse Solutions Program, and Medication Assisted Treatment.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

For most forms of chemical dependency, the stage of recovery that immediately follows intervention is detoxification. Each of Malvern Institute’s detoxification programs — from alcohol detox to heroin detox and everything in-between — provides continuous supervision and monitoring due to their nurses, clinical assistants, and technicians available around the clock. Beyond the constant medical support, our detoxification treatment offers patients the benefit of 82 hours of psychiatric care per week.

inpatient iconInpatient

Both detoxification and inpatient care comprise the inpatient phase of the Malvern Model. While in inpatient treatment, patients are able to overcome the physical aspects of the addiction before moving into the phase of recovery that’s arguably the most important: therapy. It’s when patients are in active treatment during the inpatient stage that they learn many of the most important tools that will aid them as they progress to more advanced stages of recovery. Through a variety of psychotherapeutic techniques, patients will learn to identify the underlying causes of their substance abuse problems while developing long-term strategies for addressing those issues, ensuring that each patient can achieve a long, successful recovery.

24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care

At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

Some individuals suffering from chemical dependency prefer outpatient treatment as the primary rehabilitation program. In such instances, intensive outpatient programs offer an experience that’s in between partial hospitalization and a general outpatient program. In other words, it’s an inpatient-like level of treatment intensity in the form of a more flexible, outpatient program.

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient treatment is a vital component to a successful recovery. For nearly 70 years, the Malvern Institute has been a leader in the field of treating addiction. Outpatient treatment is one of the pillars of The Malvern Model, their continuum of care that features a holistic all-encompassing recovery.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

Many recovery journeys begin with an intervention, which is why at Malvern Institute they take interventions very seriously. In fact, they have developed their own methodology for preparing and executing interventions. Meant to mirror and complement the Malvern Model of recovery, the Malvern Intervention Model is a valuable resource to those who have a loved one suffering from addiction.

12-step icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

aftercare iconAftercare Support

Aftercare refers to those continuous efforts, consisting of the addiction treatments and services that help to sustain the momentum of recovery. Once a patient has completed the Malvern 90-Day Model or one of their individual programs at Malvern Institute, he or she is ready to reenter the community and work toward establishing their continued recovery outside of their facility. They encourage these individuals to join the Malvern Alumni Association, connecting with and making themselves available to others who have completed treatment at Malvern and who are on similar journeys of post-treatment recovery. Besides their thriving community of alumni, Malvern offers a one-of-a-kind recovery program that they call their Recovery-Oriented Community, or ROM for short. In short, the Recovery-Oriented Community is an ongoing network of engagement for individuals in recovery as well as the family members, friends, and other loved ones in their support networks.

partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program

With a partial hospitalization program (PHP), you can participate in intensive rehabilitation treatment with the ability to return home at the end of the day. For a weekly minimum of 20 hours, a partial hospitalization program can take place up to 5 days a week for an average of 90 days. During PHP treatment, you can receive relapse prevention strategies, medication management, individual and group therapy, and other behavioral therapy interventions.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

Drug rehab in Pennsylvania is devoted to the treatment of addiction. Levels of care, treatment methods, and settings differ, but the aim of each program is to end drug dependency and empower participants to achieve long-term recovery.

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 and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

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.

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.

art-brush iconCreative Arts Therapy

Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.

medical-detox iconExperiential Therapy

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

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.

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.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

Rational Behavior Therapy

Rational Behavior Therapy (RBT) is a form of cognitive behavioral therapy meant to be short-term and comprehensive. It was intended to help clients become more self-sufficent and move forward without the need for expensive, ongoing therapy. It includes an emotional self-help method called “rational self-counseling,” the purpose of which is to give clients all the skills needed to handle future emotional issues by themselves, or with significantly less professional help.

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.

My recent stay here was nothing short of amazing - between the staff specifically Angie, Kristie and Brooke who always went above and beyond for me. The nursing staff specifically Lisa and the entire overnight staff who constantly helped me get through the worst part of my life. I can't thank you all enough for your help. The kitchen staff for preparing the meals on time and in a mannerly order. Thank you Malvern for helping me on my new Journey.

I had the best experience there! The community was so loving and I was very impressed with the staff. I have been to a few rehabs this year and the workers here are incredible! I was truly grateful. The cleaners that do the rooms are so friendly, kind and hard working. They would even take the time to teach me some Spanish so we could exchange words when we saw eachother. The CAs and supervisors were so supportive and respectful. I am very spiritual and I have never come across so many like minded people with wonderful guidence to give on my journey through rehabs until Willow Grove. The nurses are brilliant too. They were positive and made me laugh putting me in even greater spirits! I knew the moment Ray, one of the drivers who picked me up to bring me in to treatment, started talking to me in the van, I made the right choice. We held our own church in the van (bc church can be had anywhere!) and the Holy Spirit was within both of us. The energy was on another level, giving thanks to the source we were all born from was magical! Barb, who works the front desk had similar energy. It was an incredible start to something that lead me to forming real connections in rehab. I truly had DIVINE experiences there and I am soooo happy today. It was filled with positive vibes that has helped me ascend higher in my own Divinity. The Light there is Bright and it has fed my Spirit wHole! Many thanks to EVERYONE... they all deserve bonuses! It's simple, Love Yourself and ONEanother and healing comes naturally. In Divine time... beautiful Sycronicities flow into Your life!God Bless

Matthew is a very caring & compassionate counselor. He will recommend the best-life solution for anyone suffering from this disease. Although my stay was short-lived, this is a wonderful place to get right with God, change your life, and count on staff who works from their hearts- not their bank accounts. Give them a call & they will schedule to pick you up from your front door! Make that call, because we can't afford to lose anyone else these days

Greetings, I completed my term at Malvern Willow Grove yesterday 09/28/2023 and the staff there were very compassionate engaged and caring. I am forever grateful for them all from the director to the nurses they were very helpful especially my counselor Jeff M, he should be given parking of the year lol. Thank you all. Even though I don't suggest that people use drugs or alcohol but if someone is in need of rehabilitation I highly recommend Malvern Willow Grove. God bless you all, I'll be there for an alumni event and I'm also thinking of becoming a CA there in one year from now that would be a great way for me to give back what Malvern so freely gave to me and at the same time I can help another addict or alcoholic. Sincerely; Luis A. Centeno 09/29/2023

Response from the owner11 months ago
Luis. Thank you so much for this feedback. We are happy that you had a great experience; 5 stars is our standard so we are glad that we met yours and our expectation for excellence. Wishing you the best in your recovery. We do hope that you stay connected with our Alumni Program- a program that has been going strong for decades (and continuing to grow!)
