Wedge Medical Center Addiction Treatment Program
Wedge Medical Center, located at 4243 Frankford Avenue in Philadelphia, PA, offers a comprehensive and compassionate addiction treatment program designed to help individuals overcome substance use disorders and establish a sustainable path to recovery. We understand that addiction is a complex disease requiring personalized care tailored to the unique needs of each patient. Our multidisciplinary approach integrates evidence-based therapies with holistic support, aiming to treat not just the symptoms of addiction, but the underlying causes as well.
A Holistic Approach to Recovery
Recovery is a journey that demands attention to mental, physical, and emotional health. Our program emphasizes a whole-person approach. From the initial assessment, our team of experienced clinicians, therapists, and medical professionals collaborates to create an individualized treatment plan. This plan often incorporates various levels of care to ensure continuity and long-term success. We believe that by providing a supportive environment, individuals can develop the necessary coping mechanisms and life skills to maintain sobriety after leaving our facility.
Core Treatment Modalities
The foundation of our program rests on proven therapeutic methods. Patients participate in a structured schedule of activities focused on healing and growth. Key components of our treatment include:
- Individual Counseling: One-on-one sessions to explore personal triggers, trauma, and underlying mental health issues.
- Group Therapy: Facilitated sessions providing peer support, shared experiences, and valuable communication skills development.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Techniques designed to modify harmful thought patterns and regulate intense emotions.
- Family Support Services: Educational and therapeutic sessions aimed at rebuilding relationships and creating a supportive home environment.
- Relapse Prevention Planning: Essential training and strategies developed to anticipate challenges and secure long-term sobriety.
Continuum of Care
Effective addiction treatment extends beyond the immediate intensive phase. Wedge Medical Center ensures a smooth transition through different levels of care, ranging from intensive outpatient programs (IOP) to standard outpatient services. This phased approach allows clients to gradually reintegrate into their daily lives while still receiving necessary therapeutic support. Our commitment is to walk alongside our patients every step of the way, fostering resilience and promoting lasting change.
