W.A.R.S. DESCRIPTION
Established in 2013, Wellness Addiction Recovery Services (WARS) is a full-service Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) facility employing licensed physicians and state-certified counselors. We are dedicated to creating winning strategies for recovery across all forms of substance use disorders. At WARS, we treat addiction as a chronic illness rather than a willful choice or moral weakness, approaching each client as a unique individual to develop a plan tailored to their specific needs. WARS providers identify and treat the dual diagnoses that often hinder an individual’s ability to sustain long-term recovery. These include mental health conditions such as ADD/ADHD, anxiety, eating disorders, and depression, as well as physical conditions like chronic pain and weight management issues.
Our counseling services utilize a variety of individualized, evidence-based
approaches, including:
• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
• Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET)
• Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT)
• Contingency Management (CM)
• Matrix Model Therapy (MMT)
These modalities are uniquely designed to help clients identify triggers, manage
emotions, and modify behaviors for long-term sobriety. Treatments tailored to unique
factors such as co-existing mental illnesses, trauma, and the severity of substance use
combine with our individualized prescription medication plans to facilitate a holistic
recovery.
Comprehensive Supportive Services:
Beyond clinical care, we provide in-home interventions, inpatient referrals, medical
affidavits, Social Security services consulting, and insurance prior-authorizations.
We at Wellness Addiction Recovery Services believe that our corporate culture based
on the values of mutual respect, experience, empathy, and compassion is the
cornerstone of our clients success as well as our own.
Our clients come from Maryland, West Virginia, and Ohio as well as Pennsylvania. We equally welcome all walks of life and never discriminate on the bases of race, creed, gender, sexual orientation or socio-economic status.
W.A.R.S. MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission here at Wellness Addiction Recovery Services (W.A.R.S.) is to de-stigmatize opioid use disorder by treating addiction as a chronic illness rather than a willful choice or moral weakness !
We provide a safe and empathetic environment that fosters effective recovery strategies and facilitates the acceptance of the recovering individual back into society as a contributing, productive, and valued member.
We believe with all our heart that we all benefit from the inclusion rather than the exclusion of these recovering individuals when they are reunited and connected to loved ones, are raising families, and contributing to their community in meaningful ways such as gainful employment.
We at Wellness Addiction Recovery Services will never stop fighting what we believe is perhaps the single most dangerous threat to our society at large, that of opioid dependency.
W.A.R.S. OUR VALUES
Wellness Addiction Recovery Services ( W.A.R.S.) values creating a positive attitude towards addiction recovery through providing a loving and respectful environment.
We can help a person regain their belief in themselves and recover a strong and lasting sense of self- worth.
We work tirelessly to establish trust through honesty, intimacy, and positivity and help create a realistic environment that confronts unrealistic expectations and negative attitudes. Often we find the most important barriers to successful recovery are self absorption, negative thinking, and a sense of hopelessness.
We believe by creating a trusting and intimate relationship with each individual we can confront these and other barriers with the conviction that successful recovery is achieved through a life balance between mind, body, and soul.
Understanding that each of our clients are a unique and precious resource, we strive to induce expansion of self awareness, strengthening of health and wellness, and a sense of humility through spiritual growth.
Our skilled physicians and treatment staff seek out and develop treatment plans for co-existing illnesses such as depression, anxiety, and hepatitis-C. These secondary co-existing illnesses all too often complicate and even de-rail creating a successful recovery.
We have seen that once balance is achieved in one's life the recovering individual develops coping strategies to learn to live life on life's terms.
