Breakthrough offers a residential 5-day program specifically designed for individuals impacted by family or relationship dysfunction in childhood or adult life.

Although therapist referral is not required, this program is intended as an addition to outpatient counseling where individuals may address and release emotional pain of years of living in painful family systems.

This program is for you if:

Where:

Where:  the Breakthrough at Caron program is held in a Beautifully restored mansion on the Caron Treatment Center campus in Wernersville, PA. Lodging is a short walk from the mansion in suites called Harmony House.

When:

Groups are weekly with the exception of Christmas week.

The 5 days begin on Sunday at 4:00 PM and end on Friday at 12:00 PM.  Groups are co-ed and are limited to 10-12 people per group.

Staffing:

The program has been designed by Ann Smith, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Pennsylvania, who supervises and oversees clinical work. Therapists have a variety of credentials among them Certified Experiential Counselors, Certified Addictions Counselors, Licensed Professional Counselors, and one Ph.D..  All have been thoroughly trained in experiential therapy and have addressed personal issues through their own treatment.

Program Content:

With each day, defenses are gradually lowered and honest feelings emerge.  Group therapy, and the relationships developed in the group enable participants to identify and release painful feelings of the past and break old dysfunctional patterns.  Experiential techniques, lecture and play are all important components of the program.  Each person leaves with specific direction for follow-up care and a referral to a therapist, if they do not have this established as yet.

Admission Requirements:

Adults over the age of 17

 Participants must be physically and emo­tional­ly able to handle the intensity of feelings and activity of group therapy for 6 or more hours per day. Physician and/or therapist ap­proval may be required.

If you are a recovering addict or alcoholic, 6 months abstinence is preferred.

Although not required, greater benefits are achieved when this program is used as part of ongoing therapy.

Cost:

$2250.00 for room, board, and treatment.  Further details are available on the Breakthrough-At-Caron website
