Outpatient Services in Philadelphia
The Wedge offered a substance use outpatient program (OP) where individuals attended counseling sessions whether group, individual or a mixture. Psychiatric evaluations and medication management were available for dual diagnosis of mental health issues and substance use disorders.
They offered medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals experiencing opioid addiction. MAT was also available to pregnant women or mothers.
For mental health treatment, The Wedge provided outpatient services to help individuals take on difficult emotions, life stressors and discover personal resilience. After an assessment, clients were assigned to a therapist and attended weekly sessions whether individual, group or family. Treatment length varied depending on the individual, but the ultimate goal was to gain independence and cope with mental health challenges in healthy ways.
