​Compassionate, Accessible Recovery Services Right Near You

If you’re seeking help for addiction in Parkersburg, the Parkersburg location of St. Joseph Health Services (St. Joseph Health Services) brings our trusted, evidence-based programs closer to home. Located at 1824 Murdoch Ave, Parkersburg, WV 26101, this facility offers a continuum of care addressing every stage of recovery — from medically guided detox to residential treatment to flexible outpatient options — all delivered with dignity, compassion, and respect.

Comprehensive Treatment Services

St. Joseph Health Services offers a full continuum of CARF-accredited care, designed to meet individuals wherever they are in their recovery journey.

Detox & Withdrawal Management

Our medically supervised detox program supports you through withdrawal in a safe environment. Under the supervision of a multidisciplinary team—including medical staff, therapists, case managers, and peer recovery specialists—you’ll be supported every step of the way. This is your first step toward stabilization and healing.

2. Residential Treatment

Our residential program is for adults 18 and up who are facing moderate to severe substance use disorders or co-occurring mental health conditions (such as depression, anxiety, PTSD). In this immersive, structured environment, you’ll receive daily therapeutic interventions, psychiatric oversight, peer support, and discharge planning to set you up for long-term recovery success.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

If you don’t require 24/7 care—or when transitioning out of residential—we offer IOP options. These are structured daytime or evening sessions (for example, 9 AM–12 PM or 3 PM–6 PM) held multiple days per week. IOP includes group therapy, individual counseling, relapse prevention education, and skill-building to help you apply recovery tools in real life.

Outpatient & Mobile Services

For those needing flexible scheduling or who reside farther away, SJRC’s Parkersburg location offers:

  • Standard outpatient counseling for individuals integrating treatment into their daily lives
  • Mobile services that travel to neighboring counties, delivering medication-assisted treatment (MAT), psychiatric assessment, therapy, peer support, and telehealth options to reduce barriers to care

Specialized/Complementary Therapies

We also provide specialized options to enhance treatment:

  • Veteran PTSD Program — a dedicated track for veterans facing PTSD or other co-occurring mental health disorders, aligning care with VA networks when applicable

Specialized Programs & Holistic Therapy

Dual-Diagnosis Care

SJRC excels in treating co-occurring disorders-such as addiction alongside PTSD, anxiety, or depression—through integrated mental health and substance use treatment.
