Malvern Treatment Centers

Intensive Inpatient Care in a Safe, Structured Setting

Located at Constitution Health Plaza in South Philadelphia, Malvern Treatment Centers – Philadelphia offers medically monitored inpatient treatment for adults with substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. The facility follows ASAM Level 3.7 criteria, supporting clients who require more intensive clinical supervision without the need for detox services onsite. Treatment is designed to reduce withdrawal symptoms, stabilize mental health, and build readiness for continued care.

Peer Engagement and Trauma-Informed Approach

Treatment includes daily group sessions and individual counseling in a therapeutic environment grounded in trauma-informed principles. Peer support is built into the program model, helping clients feel less isolated and more connected during early recovery. Staff emphasize respect and safety, which is especially important for individuals who may have faced stigma through lived experiences. This reflects a commitment to community-building by rebuilding trust and peer connection.

Recovery Preparation and Discharge Planning

While onsite services are focused on clinical stabilization, clients also receive support in planning for what comes next. Discharge planning is a key part of the experience, and referrals are made to community-based providers for continued therapy, medications for addiction treatment (MAT), housing resources, and job support when needed. This practical, forward-looking approach helps clients with access to resources beyond treatment.

Inclusive Values, Respectful Care

Malvern’s team is trained in trauma-informed and identity-affirming care. The facility’s policies and staff practices reflect a commitment to inclusion and respect. Intake processes, clinical protocols, and staff communication are designed to meet people where they are, both emotionally and culturally, which can be especially meaningful for clients who have had negative past experiences in care.

Real Feedback from Real Patients

Reviews speak to the character of the staff as much as the programs themselves. Patients repeatedly describe Malvern as clean, organized, and staffed by people who truly care. Many say the support they received helped them feel human again. Although one reviewer noted difficulty during the intake process, most feedback highlights trust in the team and appreciation for how the experience improved their outlook on recovery.
