Treatment includes more than pharmaceutical interventions. It also provides comprehensive counseling and therapeutic mental health programming with evidence-based individual, group and family therapy sessions. Motivational enhancement therapy and engagement is one treatment option available. It helps individuals learn how to identify and set positive and healthy goals in therapy and life. Motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy are all psychology treatment models that are integrated into care plans and therapy sessions. All care is trauma-informed care at UPMC.

Residential treatment is provided in separate men’s and women’s units. Structure is the foundation of the residential program and programming is focused on helping individuals set, meet, and exceed therapy and long term life goals.
Withdrawal management is also offered at the Twin Lakes Road location. These services are vital during the early stages of treatment to help ensure the best chance of success. Trained medical professionals and addiction specialists help each client through the most difficult and sometimes dangerous part of recovery- withdrawal. Medication assisted treatment allows individuals to go through withdrawal and minimizes the serious and uncomfortable symptoms associated with clearing one’s body of drugs and alcohol.

Admissions are accepted for the withdrawal management unit any time of day, every day. Treatment isn’t just limited to addiction treatment. The medical professions at UPMC will treat mental health conditions and medical issues that are associated with or contribute to the person’s addiction and overall health.
UPMC Western Behavioral Health accepts most major health insurance plans including State and Federal Medicaid and Medicare. It is important to connect with your personal health insurance provider to ensure you understand what coverage you have and whether there will be financially responsible for any of the associated costs of treatment.
