About Serenity Mountain Recovery Center – Waymart

There are three programs you can choose from. They offer a partial hospitalization program (PHP), an intensive outpatient program (IOP), and a regular outpatient program. The PHP is five days a week for five hours per day, while the IOP is 3-5 days per week for 3-5 hours per day. The regular outpatient program is 1-3 days per week for 1-3 hours per day.
All the programs address women’s issues such as partner relationships, general relationships, sexuality, and parenting. A common thread for women with substance use disorder includes growing up in households where sexual, physical, or substance abuse was prevalent. The programs help you recover from these difficult childhood experiences.
They put a special emphasis on sexual health which includes living a life true to yourself. You’ll work on improving your physical, emotional, and mental health for better intimate relationships. They also take pregnant women until their second trimester. Many women are already parents. If that’s the case for you, you’ll have access to parenting classes to strengthen the bond with your child or children.
You’ll have a customized treatment plan depending on the type and severity of your substance use and mental illness. Many people with substance use also have co-occurring disorders such as anxiety, depression, or bipolar disorder. One of the most important parts of treating your substance use is identifying any co-occurring disorders. It’s often the mental health issues that drive substance use, so getting any underlying conditions treated makes substance use treatment more effective.
You’ll engage in different treatment options such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), trauma counseling, and group therapy. You’ll learn about and participate in 12 Step groups. There are also optional faith-based groups and holistic therapies such as trauma yoga therapy, music, and art therapy.
