I have to admit at first I was skeptical. How could this place help me? I had a habit of doing things my own way most of my life. When I got there I quickly realized that I wasn’t running the show anymore. After a day or two, I realized I didn’t want to run the show anym ...
About Humble Beginnings Recovery Center
Humble Beginnings Recovery Centerwas an addiction treatment facility in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania that offered outpatient (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) for clients recovering from drug and/or alcohol addiction as well as co-occurring mental illnesses. They are closed now.
Clients in the clinic’s IOP program participated in nine to 15 hours of weekly therapy sessions. The duration of the program was six to 12 weeks depending on where the client was in their recovery journey. The clinic recommended that clients lived in sober living homes while attending the IOP program.
Humble Beginnings’ OP program consisted of four hours of therapy each week which included one group session and one individual session. The clinic recommended that clients continued OP treatment for at least four weeks after entering the program. During this time, clients also worked on developing important life skills.
In addition to inpatient and outpatient services the clinic also had a male-only partial hospitalization program (PHP) which ran from Monday through Saturday. Clients were typically in the program for four to six weeks with the length of stay being determined by their individual needs. Clients in PHP had access to a variety of resources including case management, group and individual therapy and activities geared toward recovery.
This program differed from inpatient treatment because clients had the option to return home at the end of the day. All clients were given a thorough questionnaire during the admission process to ensure they received the right level of care.
The clinic believed that the recovery process should be tailored to each client’s needs and all of their programs took an individualized approach. They prided themselves on putting clients’ needs first and used evidence -based techniques to create comprehensive treatment plans.

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug rehab in Pennsylvania is devoted to the treatment of addiction. Levels of care, treatment methods, and settings differ, but the aim of each program is to end drug dependency and empower participants to achieve long-term recovery.
They are a dual-diagnosis facility and provide professional mental health care to those who require it. There exists a complex relationship between substance abuse disorders and mental health issues. Sometimes clients will have a difficult time recovering if they have untreated and underlying symptoms of depression, anxiety or PTSD. It is crucial that all issues, addictions and disorders are treated effectively and concurrently. They have an on-site psychiatrist, available to diagnose all underlying disorders and pharmaceutically treat them when deemed appropriate.
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone.

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.
Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.
Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.
Addiction truly is a family disease – and not merely because the devastation that addiction causes will touch everyone involved. Families of recovering addicts require care and support of their own, in order to heal alongside their loved one while learning to support them in the healthiest and most helpful way possible. They employ family therapy sessions and offer support groups to the families of their clients to help them to further understand the disease of addiction, while simultaneously learning how to best support their loved ones on their personal journeys of recovery.
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.
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. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
