Pine Grove Women’s Center

Pine Grove Women’s Center, located in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, is a specialized residential treatment program designed exclusively for women facing substance use disorders, trauma, and co-occurring mental health conditions. As part of the renowned Pine Grove Behavioral Health & Addiction Services network, the Women’s Center offers a safe, nurturing, and highly structured environment where women can heal deeply and rebuild their lives with strength and confidence.

This gender-specific program recognizes the unique challenges women face in addiction and recovery, including trauma history, relationship dynamics, self-esteem issues, and mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD. Treatment begins with a comprehensive assessment that allows the clinical team to create a personalized plan tailored to each woman's emotional, physical, and psychological needs.

The Women’s Center utilizes a wide range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-focused therapy, EMDR, relapse-prevention training, and motivational enhancement. These modalities help women understand the root causes of addiction, process unresolved trauma, and develop healthier coping skills for long-term recovery.

A hallmark of the program is its strong focus on trauma-informed care. Many women entering treatment have experienced emotional, physical, or relational trauma, and the center prioritizes creating a safe environment where healing can occur without judgment or pressure. Group therapy sessions allow participants to find community, share experiences, and build supportive relationships, while individual therapy offers space for deeper personal exploration.

Pine Grove Women’s Center also incorporates holistic wellness practices such as yoga, mindfulness meditation, expressive arts therapy, fitness activities, and nutritional counseling. These components help women regain balance, reduce stress, and reconnect with their bodies in healthy ways.

The program offers structured life-skills training to support independent living and sustainable recovery. This includes guidance in communication, boundaries, parenting support, emotional regulation, and self-care practices. Family involvement is encouraged through therapy and educational sessions, helping loved ones understand addiction dynamics and participate in the healing process.

Before graduation, the center provides a detailed aftercare plan that includes ongoing therapy recommendations, support groups, relapse-prevention tools, and access to alumni resources.

With its compassionate approach, trauma-informed environment, and expert clinical care, Pine Grove Women’s Center empowers women to reclaim their lives and embrace long-lasting recovery.
