Pennsylvania Counseling Services – Pottsville

About Pennsylvania Counseling Services – Pottsville – Pottsville, Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania Counseling Services is located in Pottsville, Pennsylvania, at the gap of the Schuylkill River through Sharp Mountain. The city was named for John Pott who acquired and expanded ironworks in the area in 1806.

Pennsylvania Counseling Services offers outpatient treatment at this location for mental health counseling, drug and alcohol treatment, psychiatric services, and co-occurring treatment. Co-occurring treatment is also called integrated treatment or dual diagnosis. This occurs when you experience a substance use disorder and co-occurring mental health condition simultaneously.

Treatment for dual diagnosis requires specialized care since the two diagnoses typically exacerbate each other, making diagnosis and treatment more complicated. Simultaneous treatment typically improves the rate of success.

The therapists are educated and experienced in treating addiction and codependency using applied behavioral analysis and evidence-based treatments. They also have an interest in a variety of mental health conditions, including panic disorders calm anxiety disorders, phobias, abuse, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Their staff includes masters prepared therapists and social workers

Outpatient services are provided in person and over digital platforms, typically using phone calls. Substance use disorder treatment is provided for you whether you’re an adult or an adolescent, and includes individual and group therapy settings. Intensive outpatient therapy is offered if you are age 18 and older. The adolescent substance use therapy program is based on contingency management and is provided separately from adult care.

However, the common area of focus between adult and adolescent care is addiction and co-occurring treatment. Your program may include recovery support with Recovery Specialists or Care Navigators and case management. They work with a majority of private insurance providers in the area and will verify your insurance coverage before beginning treatment.
