You can enjoy nutritious in house dining options. Their staff is happy to accommodate your unique dietary needs.

Eating Disorder Treatment in Reading, Pennsylvania

One of the unique things I noticed was their eating disorder program. Clients aged 14 and older battling an eating disorder can receive expert care. You can participate in specialized treatment for binge eating disorder, anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and more.

Hi, I was a patient here and they had shortage of staff, and the atmosphere of the place felt very unorganized and difficult with situations beyond our control.. I think also that some of the staff were not aware of how they’re handling their emotions or keeping professional.. due to the low staff we were sometimes unsupervised due to the other unit next door constantly in fights… some staff was being rude and purposely not responding to our wants or needs even if it’s just advocating for yourself. Therapy sessions were okay but we needed more than that because there were no coping mechanisms discussed and we didn’t know how to create our own. One guy in our sessions said to create a grievance letter and get out as fast as you can. And a girl took a 72 leave. I even got barricaded in my dorm with the person that was my roommate. Kids banging their heads on walls and overall it felt unsafe and like I had no control of situations

If you’re experiencing any mental or behavioral health issues, just CALLING this place will make it worse. Just a bunch of people who want to get their 8hour check and go home they dont want to think beyond “what is your name”. Hear “ummmmmm” and “i really dont know” to SIMPLE questions makes me question why AI hasnt replaced the useless bad attitude having people who pick up these phones. In fact i cant wait til AI replaces all of em. Just useless and tells clients to jump through a million hoops as if they arent already struggling with issues eh at make it hard to even do anything. Everyone wants the easy job job til they lazy themselves out of a job and get replaced by a machines who has no problem HELPING people!

I will try to give a fair review after a recent 9 day involuntary stay. There were some positives. For example, the group therapy sessions were helpful & the therapists kind & caring. Also, if you’re not picky about food (I’m not) the food is okay. Some of the techs & nurses were kind & treated patients like human beings. Now to the negatives. The one that upset me the most — since I was brought in involuntarily I was wearing jewelry as I did not have time to leave it at home. My jewelry was taken by staff upon my arrival. Only at the time of discharge was I told no one wrote it down on my list of items & that no matching jewelry could be found. I was told to complete a form for the patient advocate who would “review the video records” & follow up. I did this, & left multiple voicemails the next week but never heard back. After emailing feedback I was told the advocate was away but would contact me later. When she did, she said security reported that my jewelry was not found. When I asked if anyone reviewed the video records she said no, only that she spoke with security. I asked her to look further into it but I never received a response. Later, I was informed the video records were no longer available. I started this process the same day I was discharged. My jewelry was not expensive, but it was meaningful to me, especially a ring with my kids’ names. To be at such a vulnerable time & lose those items was very disheartening. Now to the more universal negatives. They were understaffed at all times, & so you feel like a burden in a place where you have to ask permission for a phone, crayon, notebook, or even a toothbrush. Some staff are kind, but many treat you like you’re invisible. When you go to the nurses desk to ask for something, staff often walk away or avoid eye contact. There are two dedicated time slots every week for visitors. Unfortunately, my children were too young to come, but I was promised a FaceTime call instead. At the allotted time, no one including management could figure out how to sign into their account & so I did not get to see my kids. I was told they would figure it out the next day, but they never did. On the wall is a box for complaints as well as the phone number of the patient advocate. I left her a voicemail during my stay, but she never contacted me. The wall box & number give a false sense that there is help, but in my experience there was none. At the time of discharge, social workers set up follow-up appointments. My psychiatry referral had an incorrect phone number attached, so my appointment was canceled. My first therapy appointment was also mishandled — I arrived early but not the 45 minutes they expected (which I was never told), & I was charged $50 for a canceled appointment. There’s more I could say, but I just want to move past this experience. I went there at a difficult time & was often treated like I wasn’t worth staff time. My belongings were taken & never returned, & I left feeling unsupported. The “help” promised for discharge only reinforced that I was on my own in my fight for better mental health. Thank you to anyone who reads this. I hope you & your loved ones find genuine support wherever you seek care.

Accepted Insurance

Please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Tower Behavioral Health & Addiction Treatment works with several private insurance providers, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

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.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Inpatient rehab provides clients with an opportunity to focus solely on their sobriety away from the stressors of the home and workplace. Clients receive housing, food, and intensive clinical supervision. They also typically engage in multiple addiction counseling sessions each week, including daily individual, group, and/or family sessions. Most programs also prioritize recovery-focused life skills training, including courses in relapse prevention. Many facilities offer evidence-based holistic therapies, such as yoga and meditation.

With a partial hospitalization program (PHP), you can participate in intensive rehabilitation treatment with the ability to return home at the end of the day. For a weekly minimum of 20 hours, a partial hospitalization program can take place up to 5 days a week for an average of 90 days. During PHP treatment, you can receive relapse prevention strategies, medication management, individual and group therapy, and other behavioral therapy interventions.

Treatments

Alcoholism is a syndrome of dependent alcohol use. Also called alcohol use disorder (AUD), the symptoms include craving alcohol, not being able to stop drinking, and feeling anxious or irritable when not drinking. For many people, alcohol rehab in Pennsylvania is a beneficial treatment. Programs offer many levels of care, including medical and behavioral therapies.

If you have a mental health condition and an addiction, it is critical to address both conditions simultaneously. If you only address the mental health disorder, you'll likely continue to use drugs or alcohol, which can make your mental health issues even worse. On the other hand, if you only address the addiction, you won't have the tools to cope with your mental health disorder in a healthy way.

Programs

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.

Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.

Teen programs are designed to address the unique pressures teens face, pressures that can drive them to experiment with dangerous, addictive substances. They need programs that meet them exactly where they are and give them tools for long-term recovery. Therapy can help teenagers understand and work through underlying issues so they can reclaim the life ahead of them.

Clinical Services

Group therapy sessions in Pennsylvania offer you a safe space when you're struggling with drug and alcohol addiction. You can openly discuss your challenges and the progress you're making in rehabilitation. Sharing this responsibility with others in your group fosters a commitment to sobriety and helps create strong bonds with your peers.

Personalized therapy sessions in Pennsylvania typically include a safe and nonjudgmental setting in which you can express your deepest emotions and feelings and explore the factors that have contributed to addiction. Therapists tailor the sessions to help you develop healthier thought patterns and behaviors, which improve your self control and build a foundation for your long term sobriety.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in Pennsylvania can be helpful to individuals who are experiencing substance use disorder and various mental health conditions. It helps you identify damaging thought and behavior patterns and replace them with healthy ones.

Dialectical behavior therapy in Pennsylvania is an evidence based technique that involves group therapy, individual therapy, and phone coaching. Group sessions focus on learning behavioral skills. Individual therapy gives you the opportunity to apply what you're learning to your personal situations. Phone coaching allows you to call your therapist during the week for help with challenging situations.

Motivational interviewing in Pennsylvania gives you the opportunity to share your perspective and explore your ideas and motivation for change. Your therapist will walk you through the four steps of engaging, focusing, evoking, and planning to empower you to make any desired changes in your life.
