About UPMC Western Psychiatric Hospital – Pittsburgh

UPMC Western Psychiatric Hospital is a comprehensive hospital for behavioral health and mental health in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. They have inpatient and outpatient treatment. They also offer an intensive outpatient program (IOP) if you need a level of support that’s in between inpatient care and the occasional therapy appointment. This hospital treats adults as well as children.

Your treatment program will depend on your addiction and where you are in your recovery journey. Individual therapy and group therapy are core components of the healing process. You might receive medications to help with your cravings, too, like methadone or buprenorphine. They have family therapy as well, and the program incorporates peer support. They understand that a support system can make a powerful difference in maintaining your recovery, so part of their goal here is to help you build the system you need.

The inpatient treatment here is for short term stabilization. In the case of addiction it’s usually used to stabilize clients who have dual diagnosis addiction and mental illness. They also have inpatient detox. That’s one of the important things to note about this facility because you don’t have to be clean of your substance use already for them to help you. They can help at any stage of your journey.

While this hospital does treat mental health and behavioral health clients who don’t have addictions, you should keep in mind that there are different units in the hospital. For example, there’s a unit for detox and a unit for eating disorders as well as one for certain mental illnesses and so on.

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.

LGBTQ Program

Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

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.
