About STR Behavioral Health

Steps to Recovery offers a range of outpatient services aimed at addressing both addiction and mental health issues, whether they occur simultaneously or are treated as separate concerns. Their offerings include a partial hospitalization program (PHP), an intensive outpatient program (IOP), and standard outpatient therapy, complemented by options for sober living accommodations. In addition to these programs, Steps to Recovery incorporates family therapy, psychoeducation sessions, and a comprehensive alumni network. These services are accessible at their sites in Bucks County and Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania.

Upon initiation of treatment at Steps to Recovery, clients undergo a psychiatric evaluation, a review of family health history, and a biopsychosocial assessment to ascertain their diagnoses and formulate a tailored treatment strategy. The center employs a trauma-informed framework, focusing on understanding and addressing the underlying factors contributing to addiction. As part of their therapeutic journey, clients engage in one-on-one sessions with their primary therapist twice weekly, transitioning to weekly meetings as they move forward. Clients also have the flexibility to select group therapy sessions from an array of options.

Steps to Recovery is equipped to manage a variety of primary mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, borderline personality disorder (BPD), other personality disorders, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), schizophrenia, and schizoaffective disorders. The facility utilizes a mix of evidence-based treatment modalities, such as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). Additionally, Steps to Recovery provides life skills training, aiding clients in securing employment, returning to their studies, or enhancing their communication abilities.

Their PHP welcomes participants five days a week from Monday to Friday, operating from 9 AM to 5 PM. Clients have the option to reside at home or in one of the center's well-equipped sober living homes nearby, which provide contemporary accommodations, access to technology, and the potential for private rooms. The IOP is scheduled three days a week—Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday—available either from 9 AM to 12 PM or 6 PM to 9 PM.
