Detox and intensive residential treatment

Withdrawal management and high-intensity residential treatment are provided within the same program. This allows clients to smoothly transition to residential care once they are stabilized with no interruption in treatment. During the withdrawal management phase, clients receive medical monitoring to make sure they are safe and can be prescribed MAT as needed. After this phase is complete, they can join structured residential programming.

Co-occurring care

Clinicians are equipped to address co-occurring mental health conditions at the same time as treating substance use. This can include anxiety, depression, and mood disorders, as well as trauma. When clients start treatment, staff provide a detailed assessment that is used to adapt care to each person’s needs. Individual and group counseling can address addiction issues as well as help give clients the tools to manage mental health conditions.

Medications to support recovery

Medications for addiction treatment (MAT) can be integrated with counseling and education to support recovery when appropriate. These include medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) and medications for alcohol use disorder (MAUD). These medications can help clients safely withdraw from substances and maintain recovery over time.

Next steps and alumni program

The center is connected to a larger treatment network with step-down recovery options. Gaudenzia is a nonprofit organization that provides care for substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions across Pennsylvania and several other states. Once clients finish residential treatment, they can step down to outpatient programs in the same network. Staff can help facilitate these transitions. Graduates of Gaudenzia’s programs can also be part of the alumni association, which provides connections to peers and opportunities to get involved in the community.
