Huntington Creek Recovery Center

About Huntington Creek Recovery Center – Shickshinny

Huntington Creek Recovery Center is based in Shickshinny, Pennsylvania. They treat substance use disorders and co-occurring menta health conditions. Their main offerings are their residential programs. They have a program for adults and a program for adolescents ages 13 to 18. They also offer medically supervised detox services for adults over the age of 18.

Their detox services are designed to keep you comfortable and stable as you adjust to living without substances. The experienced and knowledgeable team carefully monitors your condition, adjusting medication levels and determining when you’re ready to begin treatment.

The residential program is structured without feeling restrictive. Each day starts with a healthy breakfast and a guided stretch or meditation session. You’ll then attend a group therapy session, enjoy some free time, and eat lunch. Afterward, you’ll move into experiential therapy sessions and structured recreation time.

This is followed by a hearty dinner, one final group therapy session and self-help meetings. Every day ends with a quick debriefing session where all residents talk about the day’s activities and celebrate their growth.

Something unique about Huntington Creek Recovery Center is the fact that the program focuses majorly on experiential therapies. Experiential therapy involves using immersive activities to work through difficult emotions and experiences.

Some of the activities you can partake in include team building activities, aerobic fitness classes and a challenging but fun ropes course. They also offer a wilderness program, nature walks, hiking trips, campfire outings and other outdoor adventure trips that teach you about resilience while letting you connect with nature. You can also get involved with more mindful activities like yoga, guided meditation, and music therapy.

They incorporate evidence based practices as a foundation for the experiential methods. These include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), the 12-step program and motivational interviewing. You’ll attend individual and group therapy sessions several times a week to learn coping mechanisms and work through issues that contribute to substance use.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Aftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Inpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Intervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.

Medically Assisted Detox

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

Programs

Adult Program

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.

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
