About The Ranch Pennsylvania
The Ranch Pennsylvania is an addiction treatment residency that offers drug rehab services to men and women living in the Wrightsville, Pennsylvania, area. Their picturesque location overlooks the lovely Susquehanna River. Their levels of care include residential treatment, outpatient care and partial hospitalization care.
Their residential program is their most intensive level of care. It requires the client to live there for the duration of their treatment. Partial hospitalization is a step below this. This program allows you to return home each evening while you still have a full day of treatment each day.
They also offer medication assisted treatment during your detox process, if necessary. This process can help you lessen your withdrawal symptoms and cravings by an impressive margin. You’ll be supervised by professionals to make sure nothing goes wrong and to ensure you’re as comfortable as possible.
They are also a dual diagnosis center. Many people who struggle with addiction also tend to have co-occurring issues with their mental health, such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, and even schizophrenia. This is why this type of dual treatment is so important.
In addition to all this, you’ll get gender specific services and receive trauma informed care while undergoing treatment. Treatment also includes counseling services, such as individual counseling, group therapy and family therapy. Their modalities of treatment encompass cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and 12 Step practices. They also have more holistic and experiential services, such as adventure therapy, therapeutic drumming and mindfulness practices. There is plenty here to benefit from if you are seeking freedom from drug or alcohol addictions.

I was at the ranch for mental health. The food was great and so was most of the staff. The case manager team however was not so good. They were supposed to put me on a wait list for a php but they simply forgot to do it. There was a severe lack of communication. Now I m stuck waiting for another two weeks. I would reccomend it for most people or if you are here for substance. It s just my unique experience was so poor that I can t in good conscience leave a good review. It doesn t help that the ranch has almost no communication with their php the manor.

Accepted Insurance
Other Forms of Payment
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Outpatient 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 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.
Aftercare Support 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.
24-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.
12-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.

Programs

Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
Clinical Services
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 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.
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. In trauma therapies like EMDR, clients process trauma and move through it with the help of trained mental health professionals.
