Livengrin Counseling Center

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Fairless Hills has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

They do not detox, and nothing inside 14 miles of Fairless Hills does either. Ask them where they send people, because a place without one usually has somewhere it refers to.

They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Fairless Hills are in it too, or only the one to one ones.

They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Fairless Hills often still has to be in person.

Fairless Hills has 1 AA group, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Fairless Hills.

The spread is enormous, from state funded care at no cost to private residential rates that need financing. The gap between two quotes is often the length of the program rather than the quality of the care. It is worth asking about a sliding scale even where nothing is advertised.

Expect questions rather than a sales pitch, and expect them to be direct. Medical history matters here: seizures, pregnancy, heart problems and current prescriptions all change the plan. Write down what you are using and how much before you dial, because it is harder to recall out loud.
