Serving Norristown, Bridgeport, East Norriton, and Plymouth Meeting

Norristown is the Montgomery County seat and one of the closest larger communities to our Phoenixville center, about 20 minutes west along Ridge Pike or Route 23. We see people from Norristown proper, Bridgeport, East and West Norriton, Plymouth Meeting, and Conshohocken.

Norristown is well served by SEPTA, and that matters for treatment attendance. The Manayunk/Norristown Line and the Route 99 and 93 bus connections make getting toward Phoenixville feasible without a car for many people, which removes one of the most common reasons a program gets abandoned in week two.

For anyone where transportation is still the blocker, our virtual Intensive Outpatient Program runs the same curriculum from home anywhere in Pennsylvania.

Care That Does Not Depend on Having a Car or a Flexible Job

A lot of what we hear from Norristown callers is logistical rather than clinical. Shift work. No reliable ride. A plan through a county or Medicaid-adjacent product and uncertainty about whether anyone in the area takes it. Those barriers keep people in crisis cycles far longer than the underlying condition requires.

Our Intensive Outpatient Program runs part of the week specifically so a job survives treatment. Our verification team checks your benefits for free before you commit to anything, so you know the cost picture up front instead of discovering it after admission.

Clinically, programming covers depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and co-occurring substance use, with psychiatry overseen by Dr. Jeffrey Simon, MD and group work grounded in CBT, DBT, and EMDR.

Getting to Our Phoenixville Location from Norristown

Our office is located at 2215 Kimberton Road, Suite 1A, Phoenixville, PA 19460, a quick, direct drive from Norristown. If travel is a barrier, our Virtual IOP program offers the same quality care through secure telehealth, available anywhere in Pennsylvania.

What to Expect on Your First Visit

From there, your treatment plan is built around you, coordinated by our full clinical team so every part of your care stays connected.

Questions From Norristown Residents

How do I get to your center from Norristown without a car?
SEPTA's Manayunk/Norristown Regional Rail line and the county bus network connect Norristown toward the Phoenixville area. If transportation is still a barrier, our statewide virtual IOP removes the commute entirely.
How long is the drive?
About 20 minutes from central Norristown, usually via Ridge Pike or Route 23 west. Parking at 2215 Kimberton Road is free and on site.
Can I keep my job while in treatment?
Intensive Outpatient is built for that. It runs part of the week so shift and full-time workers can attend. Partial Hospitalization is a full-day program and usually needs short-term leave.
What if I am not sure my insurance covers this?
Call and we will verify your benefits at no cost and with no obligation. We are in-network with Highmark, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare/Optum, Geisinger, Amerihealth, Ambetter, and Allied Trades.
Do you treat mental health and substance use together?
Yes. Co-occurring depression, anxiety, trauma, and substance use are treated in one coordinated plan rather than split across two programs.
