About My Sisters Place
My Sisters Place is a residential substance use treatment program in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania providing addiction care for women including those who are pregnant and postpartum or parenting.
My Sisters Place takes a trauma responsive and mindfulness based approach that combines addiction treatment with medical, psychological, and social service support.
Addiction Treatment With MAT
Care is provided through 24 hour residential treatment, with both short term and long term options and substance use and mental health assessments to guide each woman's recovery.
Medication assisted treatment including buprenorphine maintenance is available and I noted the program welcomes clients already using MAT prescribed elsewhere.
Clients can expect counseling along with evidence based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing using the Matrix Model, relapse prevention, and trauma related counseling.
I found they offer wraparound services including case management and employment counseling, peer support, and aftercare planning.

Amenities
Art and music are mediums that connect with our feelings, making them a great recovery tool during addiction treatment. Studies show that combining art/music and drug rehab can have a greater therapeutic impact than drug rehab alone, as you’re able to access parts of your brain and body that you may not have access to during traditional talk therapy. Benefits of art/music therapy include lowering stress and anxiety, promoting healthy neurochemicals, and providing stress relief.
Hiking is a great way to relieve stress, get perspective, navigate challenges, connect with nature, and improve your health - all essential components of sustaining long-term recovery. Studies also show that the body releases endorphins during physical activities like hiking. These endorphins improve mood and act as a natural pain reliever.
Yoga and meditation are great activities to support your recovery process during alcohol or drug rehab. These therapies have been around for centuries, and they are an effective way to improve well-being. Combining addiction treatment, yoga, and meditation can reduce cravings, improve sleep, relieve anxiety and depression, provide stress relief, promote relaxation, support emotional healing, and improve energy levels.
Addiction treatment in the metro area benefits clients by offering seamless connections from the city, around the state, and those seeking out-of-state treatment. Another benefit of attending a metro area drug rehab is that you’re close to major airports and ground transportation services.
Transportation services are designed to ensure your addiction treatment begins and ends successfully by offering free transportation to the rehab facility, to and from your appointments during rehab, and back home upon program completion.
