Questions people ask about Pennsylvania Counseling Services
Is Pennsylvania Counseling Services residential or day treatment?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Harrisburg is set up for.
Can you detox at Pennsylvania Counseling Services?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Harrisburg, 4.7 miles away.
Is a diagnosis handled at Pennsylvania Counseling Services as well?
They treat mental health alongside the substance use, so both sides are handled in one place. Ask whether the psychiatric side is on site, because in Harrisburg that is the part that varies.
Does Pennsylvania Counseling Services treat teenagers?
They treat young people from 12 up, so a parent calling from Harrisburg about a teenager is in the right place.
Which medications does Pennsylvania Counseling Services prescribe?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Harrisburg.
Does Pennsylvania Counseling Services offer appointments by video?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Harrisburg often still has to be in person.
Can I choose my own program for a court order?
Mandated treatment is ordinary treatment with reporting attached, and many centers take court referrals as a matter of course. Drug court programs often have their own approved list and their own funding attached. Ask what happens if you miss a session, so you hear it from them first.
Will my insurance cover this?
Most plans cover addiction treatment to some degree, because federal parity rules put it alongside other medical care. An out of network center can still be partly covered, and the difference lands on you. Ask the center to put the benefits check in writing before an admission date is set.
