Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient programs are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare. Their outpatient treatment is located in the same house.

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

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

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 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). When necessary, residents are required to participate at 12-step meetings.

sober-living iconSober Living Homes

Residents of a sober living home in Pennsylvania pay rent and contribute to household maintenance. For their contributions, individuals get the opportunity to live in a substance-free environment and receive support from others in recovery while all residents practice sober-living skills. Sober living expenses are not covered by insurance since they are not treatment services. However, grants and scholarships are often available to help individuals afford rent for men's or women's sober living.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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 trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

I had a WONDERFUL counselor here but had to change because of insurances. I now see another fabulous counselor that uses them for her billing and scheduling purposes. They have helped me so much and I can t say enough about that (I want to make that clear). I m very grateful for that. Having said that, the office policies (which are beyond the control of the counselors) are so frustrating here that at one point I almost stopped my counseling because it was so stressful. My insurance situation is such that I do not have a copay. I cannot get the billing department to understand that I do not owe a copay because my secondary will pick it up. So instead, I get sent a letter telling me I m discharged (literally day after my appt before it could even go to my first insurance let alone my second!) and my appt is cancelled . I know I am making this sound overtly dramatic, but I m coming here to work on my mental health, and this whole process just triggers all my issues. They won t listen, I have tried talking to them multiple times, and frankly if my counselor wasn t so amazing I would be done with this place. The support staff can make or break how well a doctor or in this case therapist can do their job, and in this case, PA Counseling is crumbling at the foundation.Edited to add: I have tried contacting the billing department to explain I do not have a copay. They do not answer and do not return my call (as of yet). My insurance company has advised me to file a grievance against them if they continue to try charging me copays I do not owe.

There is no INDIVIDUALIZED help/counseling. If u wanna be stuffed into a group, or treated like every other addict that comes in there, then this place is right for u! They use CURRICULUM in groups! There is NO individualized care whatsoever. Everyone is the same. This is the worst place I have EVER GONE FOR COUNSELING.And my so called therapist (counselor is what I considered her as I actually have a real licensed therapist) was fresh out of everything in honky dory school and was so soft-spoken it made me anxious. I don't think a person should have to take an Ativan or medicinal marijuana before entering a counseling session! That is just ludicrous!! But this is what I did ...No. Renaissance. Period.I spoke out so I was kicked out! Only takes 1 voice though....Def not even a 1 for a star.

I have been going here for almost 2 years. I have never had an issue with rescheduling an appointment, and even when I missed one, I was able to continue to see my therapist with no issues. I did have to change the therapist due to insurance changes but got matched with a great new one and continue to see them. This is the first time I have felt that my therapist really listens to me and repects the fact that i dont want medication. They listened to that and came up with a treatment plan that helps without medication. It's hard, but with it.

One of the worst places to get any mental help. I mean, it literally looks like a prison inside. Their therapy sessions felt very bland and unreliable most of the time. It just feels like a place the court system sends their addicts into. There seems to be NOTHING friendly about them.Horrible environment, but it fits well with the rest of this deteriorating town. The only people who supports this trash are their workers. Such a sad, pathetic place.Look at their responses. Jesus, do these clowns even care anymore?Edit: Apparently they don t lol. Nice robot.

I have been on my meds. for ADHD, anxiety, depression and bipolar disorder for approx. 20 years. My psychologist of approx. 10 years left in Feb. Of 2022. My treatment plan, provided by 2 different providers, was changed, which I consider, dramatically. Even though I did not agree with the changes, and I expressed my unhappiness, I complied with them. After 2 telehealth sessions with my 2nd provider I received a letter stating that I was discharged due to non-compliance of treatment recommendations. This is totally untrue! Now I can't find a new provider. I need help!!!!

The turn over rate was ridiculous. They had to reschedule countless times. I would go thinking I had an appointment, to be told no they canceled it. Or it was the next day. I live 45 mins away so I told them from now on I can only do teleconferences cus driving out there all the time to be told it was tomorrow was getting old. Well guess who always had technical problems. They were very inconsistent with scheduling. Like one therapist would say let's do once a month. Then the next one, let's do once a week. I couldn't keep up with it. I missed 1 appointment, she gave me 1 week to respond, I was working out of town and didn't get the letter, (we were responding by phone and email and I never got a phone call or email) and when I got the letter, it was already too late. I was discharged. I tried setting up the whole thing again, and they said sry they have nothing for 4 weeks. Total absolute joke.

I m not one to complain about businesses, but here I need to. I had to reschedule an appointment due to my work schedule, and I had called them to reschedule my appointment and got it made. The next day they called me to inform me I was discharged. Unless this is your last or only option, do not give them your business. There s many other places willing to work with you.
