We partner with you to address substance abuse issues within the family.

Addiction Is a Family Disease and We Support the Whole Family

We understand that addiction impacts not only the individual struggling with substance use but also their loved ones. At Livengrin, we emphasize the importance of family support in the recovery process. We recognize that including family members in the treatment journey can greatly contribute to successful and lasting recovery.

Our Family Support Program offers a range of services tailored to the unique needs of families, including couples group sessions, family support groups, and family education sessions. These programs provide a safe and supportive environment for family members to connect and share experiences. We teach strategies and provide valuable tools to help family members navigate the challenges associated with addiction.

We believe that healing and recovery are most effective when the entire family is involved. Our dedicated team of professionals is here to support you every step of the way, offering guidance, education, and resources to help you and your family find strength, understanding, and hope. Together, we can foster healthier relationships, rebuild trust, and create a supportive foundation for lasting recovery.

If you would like to speak with someone on our Admissions Team about how you can help your loved one start their journey to sobriety, you can call us any time at 215-638-5200 or email us at BensalemAdmissions@Livengrin.org.

Family Member FAQs

What types of addiction treatment programs do you offer?

We offer a range of addiction treatment programs, including residential (inpatient) treatment, outpatient programs, detoxification services, medicated assisted treatment and aftercare support.

How long does the residential treatment program typically last?

Livengrin offers a 28-day program, though adjustments can be made based on the needs and goals of the patient.

How do you determine the best treatment approach for my loved one?

Our experienced team conducts a thorough assessment to understand your loved one’s unique situation, including their substance use history, co-occurring disorders, and individual needs. Based on this assessment, we develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to their specific requirements.

What therapies and interventions are included in the treatment program?

Our treatment programs utilize a combination of evidence-based therapies, such as individual counseling, group therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma therapy, family therapy, holistic approaches, equine-assisted therapy, guided meditation, trauma-informed yoga, music therapy, art therapy, and experiential therapies to address the physical, psychological, and emotional aspects of addiction.

Can we, as family members, be involved in the treatment process?

Absolutely. Family involvement is highly encouraged and plays a significant role in the recovery process. We offer family therapy sessions, educational programs, and support groups to help families understand addiction, develop healthier communication skills, and provide support to their loved ones throughout the recovery journey.

How do you address dual diagnosis or co-occurring mental health issues?

We recognize the importance of addressing co-occurring mental health issues alongside addiction. Our treatment team, including a board-certified psychiatrist, includes mental health professionals who specialize in these issues. They work closely with clients to provide integrated treatment, addressing both addiction and any underlying mental health conditions.

How are medications used in the treatment process?

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) may be incorporated for certain substance addictions to assist with withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Our medical professionals carefully evaluate the need for medication and closely monitor its use to ensure the safest and most effective treatment approach.

How do you support individuals in transitioning back to daily life after treatment?

We understand the importance of a successful transition post-treatment. Our treatment program includes comprehensive aftercare planning, which may involve ongoing therapy, support group recommendations, life skills training, vocational assistance, and access to community resources to facilitate a smoother transition and maintain lasting recovery.

How much does treatment cost, and what payment options are available?

Treatment costs can vary depending on the specific program and services provided. We offer various payment options and have a full-time staff that can guide you through the process.

Can I make a referral for my adult family member?

Yes, absolutely! We welcome referrals for adult family members seeking addiction treatment. Making a referral for your loved one shows your care and support, and it can be a crucial step in helping them find the assistance they need to overcome their addiction. Our team is here to assist you throughout the referral process, guiding you on the necessary steps and information required to ensure a smooth intake and admission for your family member. Feel free to reach out to our admissions team, and they will be more than happy to provide you with the necessary details and answer any additional questions you may have. We understand that this can be a challenging time for both you and your loved one, and we are committed to providing compassionate and professional care to support your family member on their path to recovery.
