Located among the woods and mountains of the beautiful Pennsylvania countryside, Cove Forge Behavioral Health System provides comprehensive care for individuals who are battling substance abuse, chemical dependency, and other chronic behavioral health disorders. Cove Forge offers a full continuum of evidence-based treatment, ranging from detox to outpatient care.
The treatment and rehab programs offered at Cove Forge fall under two basic types of programming: regular rehabilitation and dual diagnosis rehabilitation. When individuals are working to overcome a substance use disorder while also battling the symptoms of a co-occurring mental health disorder, they can benefit from participating in a dual diagnosis program. This program is designed to be diagnosis-specific, offering individuals the opportunity to receive truly personalized care that is centered on their unique treatment requirements. While in this rehab program, individuals are able to work with both a chemical dependency counselor and a mental health counselor, ensuring that professional intervention is received at all levels.
Designed to help individuals safely withdraw from physically addicting drugs, such as alcohol, opioids, and sedative-hypnotics, the detox program at Cove Forge is monitored by medical staff and includes 24-hour nursing supervision. The typical length of stay is between 3 and 5 days, at which point patients progress to the Residential program.
Cove Forge’s residential rehabilitation program is a co-ed treatment option for adults with a primary diagnosis of chemical dependency. Residents typically stay 2–4 weeks, but actual length of stay is determined according to each individual’s needs. The residential treatment program consists of individual 30-minute therapy sessions at least once per week, group therapy, family therapy, and 12-step facilitation. Experiential therapies are also included in the program, such as music therapy, recreation therapy, and art therapy. Cove Forge also hosts many groups, including chemical dependency groups, diagnosis-specific mental health groups (such as anxiety and depression), gratitude groups, Bible study, music performance group, and “real talk” groups, with topics covering life skills like relapse prevention, stress management, and post-acute withdrawal syndrome (PAWS).
Most individuals enter PHP as a step-down level of care following residential treatment, with eventual transition to an outpatient treatment program in their home area. Cove Forge’s program includes a housing component, with separate residences for men and women. Programming occurs 7 days per week.
Cove Forge understands how complex addictions and mental health disorders are for those who have served in the military. The Veterans Program provides personalized support for veterans who are struggling with addictions and co-occurring mental health disorders. Veterans who are going through withdrawal must complete medical detoxification prior to entering the program. Program therapies include individual, group, and family therapy, as well as reality therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and the 12-Step recovery model, The Veterans Program also offers experiential therapies, including a ropes course and rock climbing twice a week. The average length of stay in the program is 21-28 days.
Cove Forge believes that chemical dependence is a disease, not a character flaw, and should be treated as such. Throughout the recovery community, and society at large, there is a vast amount of misinformation about addiction and relapse. Cove Forge addresses the disease of addiction on a deeper, neurobiological level, focusing on activities and supports that promote healing. Using researched-backed treatment modalities, the HOPE program at Cove Forge offers groups and activities including a humor group, exercise program, endorphin-inducing nutrition, and a Big Brother/Big Sister (mentorship) program. Clients meet with nurses for individual support and education sessions, and VIVITROL/ReVia is offered as a recovery support option for opioid dependence.
The opportunity to practice one’s faith can be critical to the healing process from addiction and co-occurring mental health challenges. Cove Forge understands that integrating teachings of the Bible, such as love, forgiveness, suffering, perseverance, and hope, may help some individuals find the inner strength they need to reach their recovery goals. Whether a patient has deep faith-based roots or is interested in exploring faith as part of the healing process, patients have the option of adding this specialty track while participating in either the residential or partial hospitalization program. Patients can choose to attend Christ-centered groups Mondays through Fridays, as well as church services on Sunday afternoons. A pastoral counselor leads the faith-based groups at Cove Forge Behavioral Health, incorporating both therapeutic and theological concepts into each group discussion.
