About Community Guidance Center – Outpatient
The outpatient facility of Community Guidance Center in Du Bois, Pennsylvania is a nonprofit mental health and addiction treatment center dedicated to supporting children, adolescents, adults and seniors.
They are a certified community behavioral health clinic that is accredited by CARF and SAMHSA. Accessible and trauma informed care is offered to address substance use disorders, dual diagnoses and mental health conditions. The center accepts Medicaid, Medicare and private insurance. They also offer sliding fee scales for self pay clients to ensure no one is denied care due to financial barriers.
Community Outpatient Care
The center provides outpatient and intensive outpatient programs (IOP) that will allow you to maintain your daily responsibilities while receiving structured care. Services include individual, group and family therapy. I like that they also have school based therapy to support the youth.
The treatment modalities they utilize include cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and trauma art narrative therapy. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) with naltrexone will be used to support recovery from substance use disorders, if needed. MAT will also be complemented by psychotropic medication management for mental health.
Specialized Programs and Additional Services
I appreciate that their specialized programs serve court referred clients, seniors and those with co-occurring disorders. They also have additional offerings like gambling disorder treatment, suicide prevention and family psychoeducation.
Additional services include case management, diet and exercise counseling and illness management to promote holistic recovery. What stood out to me is that they also provide telemedicine and evening appointments to enhance accessibility.
Community Guidance Center is praised for its dedicated staff, though some clients note occasional scheduling challenges. Their mission is to empower you to achieve wellness through evidence based and person centered services.

Other Forms of Payment
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.
Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Treatments
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.
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
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. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
