A Better Today Inc: Comprehensive Addiction Treatment in Wilkes Barre, PA

Located at 24 North Main Street, A Better Today Inc. serves as a dedicated resource for individuals and families struggling with substance use disorders in the Wilkes Barre community and surrounding areas. Our mission is to provide a supportive, evidence-based path toward lasting recovery and empower clients to build healthier, more fulfilling lives.

Our Treatment Philosophy

We believe that successful recovery requires addressing the full spectrum of challenges associated with addiction—physical, psychological, and social. Our approach is personalized, moving beyond a one-size-fits-all model. Every client undergoes a thorough assessment upon arrival, allowing our clinical team to craft an individualized treatment plan tailored to their unique history, needs, and co-occurring mental health concerns.

Core Programs and Services

A Better Today Inc. offers a continuum of care designed to support clients through every phase of the recovery journey. These services are delivered by experienced and compassionate professionals, including licensed therapists, counselors, and medical personnel.

Individual and Group Therapy

Central to our program is intensive therapy. We utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques, and trauma-informed care to help clients understand the root causes of their addiction, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and manage high-risk situations. Group sessions foster a sense of community, accountability, and shared experience, which are vital components of long-term sobriety.

Supportive Services

  • Family Counseling and Education: Recognizing that addiction impacts the entire family unit, we offer sessions to help loved ones heal and establish supportive boundaries.
  • Aftercare Planning: Transitioning from structured treatment back to daily life is challenging. We collaborate with clients to develop robust aftercare plans, which often include referrals to sober living environments, local support groups, and alumni activities.
  • Relapse Prevention Education: Clients are taught practical strategies for identifying triggers and effectively managing urges, preparing them for continued success outside the facility.

Choosing A Better Today Inc. means choosing a facility committed to clinical excellence and compassionate care. Our welcoming environment and dedicated staff ensure that every client receives the dignity and professional support necessary to achieve a better tomorrow.
