Residential Program
The most comprehensive, structured, and intensive element of The Renfrew Center's treatment is the Residential Program offered at our centers in Philadelphia and Coconut Creek (near Boca Raton), Florida. Residential treatment is designed to help women who are struggling with acute psychological distress alleviate their symptoms and address the underlying issues that contributed to their admission. Individualized treatment goals integrating psychological, psychiatric, and medical perspectives are developed in collaboration with a multidisciplinary treatment team and referring professionals. Experienced medical care is available 24 hours a day.
An Intensive & Comprehensive Program
The Renfrew Center's Residential Program creates a community of adolescents, women, and supportive professionals. Each resident is encouraged to openly discuss her symptoms, struggles, and successes in community meetings, therapeutic groups and informal social interactions. As a result, women develop new relationships based on mutual sharing and support. The Renfrew community decreases the shame, secrecy, and isolation that so often perpetuate symptoms and aims to inspire a renewed sense of strength and determination in our residents.
Residential treatment at Renfrew takes place seven days a week and provides an intensive and comprehensive program of individual, group, and family therapy. Each woman is helped to understand her physical and psychological needs in order to facilitate her active participation in the recovery process. Psychotherapy groups focus on topics such as assertiveness, family patterns, sexuality, symptom management, and relaxation to help participants develop insights and enhance their adaptive coping skills. Through creative and experiential groups, residents are able to express their thoughts and feelings and confront underlying issues. Family therapy is also an integral part of residential treatment.
Special Residential Tracks & Programs
In addition to the multidisciplinary treatment that is a part of every woman's care, Renfrew has developed special residential tracks to address the specific needs of women suffering from compulsive eating, trauma and abuse, or substance abuse disorders. Renfrew has also developed special programs to address the special needs of adolescents, women thirty-something and beyond and observant Jewish women in the Orthodox community.
Residential treatment is a brief, intense part of a woman's ongoing effort to build and maintain a satisfying and productive life. The Renfrew Center places great importance on the continuum of care and on facilitating a smooth transition to a less intensive level of care. Aftercare planning, including collaboration with referring therapists or facilities, begins at admission and continues throughout treatment to maximize the benefits of The Renfrew Center's program and facilitate ongoing and long-lasting recovery.
