Women-Centered Recovery
Residential treatment is the heart of POWER House offering a structured, gender-responsive environment for women in early recovery.
Programming includes individualized treatment planning, therapy, family education and counseling and aftercare and discharge planning within a 24-hour staffed residence featuring 26 private bedrooms.
Daily life blends clinical care with wellness and connection, including exercise, meditation, yoga, expressive arts therapy, life skills classes and 12-Step meetings.
Psychiatric assessment and medication management are available through a medical director addressing both substance use and underlying mental health needs.
Family-Aware Healing
POWER House recognizes that recovery includes family offering family sessions, visitation and a dedicated playroom for visiting children.
Residents also receive practical help identifying education, employment and housing resources.
The center also offers primary care and medications for substance use disorders through a partnership with Squirrel Hill Health Center.
