Levels of Care

Outpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Medically Assisted Detox

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

Treatment

Alcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Drug Addiction

Drug rehab in New Jersey is the process of addressing the complex issues involved with addiction. Challenges are identified and addressed through individual and group counseling. Participants learn how to manage these issues without the use of substances.

Dual Diagnosis

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Mental Health and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Opioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Couples Therapy

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

Family Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

Group Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

Individual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

If I could put zero stars, I would. I don't normally do reviews but I am so frustrated with this place that I refuse to not share with other potential patients. You should know what you may possibly get yourself into. I don't know about all of the therapists, but I had Linda. Her and the front desk have given me problems that I need therapy and I refuse to go to them because of what has occurred in just 3 weeks. Linda was 17 minutes late to my first appointment (I was doing telemed because I have a baby at home). I didn't say anything because I did not want to be rude, I let it go. She wasn't that great though either. She kept asking the same question that I already answered and she didn't really help me through my thoughts. I said I was having a problem with a family member and she said that I shouldn't let it get to me and to let my husband deal with it. She also did not give me the extra time at the end to make up for being late. I let it all go though, it was just one appointment, I didn't want to start problems, maybe it would be better next time. The next week I call and let them know that I probably won't be late but if anything maybe a couple minutes, but everything should be fine I just didn't want her waiting on the camera thinking I missed an appointment in case I was late. Well she tells me that if I am late I just lose time and still have to pay for it, which is fine since it would have been my fault at that point. I wonder what the excuse was for the week before. Anyway, I end up on the camera 5 minutes before my appointment started. I took screenshots of when I got on, and every minute that she was late. After 15 minutes of her not coming on I called the front desk to tell them to just cancel it if she was going to be late. They put her on the phone with me and she says that she didn't get a notification, and tried to insinuate that I was lying about being early. And then she said well you said you would be late. I said no I said there is a small chance i will be a couple minutes. Not 15. So she was like well we can continue the session, and I said I don't want to pay for a session that will only last 20 minutes by that point. She told me well 20 minutes is better than nothing and if you cancel you will be charged a $30 cancellation fee. I said I was on time, I showed up, she didn't and I have pictures to prove it and she changed her tone quickly. Now I no longer had to pay the fee. Well after seeing how she handled that, I called on Saturday to leave a message to tell them I was cancelling any future appointments with her. Today I called to make sure they got it because I did not trust them. The front desk said she hadn't looked at her voicemails yet and asked if my name was _____ and I said no but I left the voicemail on Saturday. She said I can cancel it but they may still charge me a fee. I said absolutely not, I canceled 4 days in advance and it is indefinitely since my experience with Linda was horrible. They still have a charge in my account for today's appointment. This place is greedy and it disgusts me. If it was something I was late to, or I called last minute, I can understand that, but don't punish me for your own mistakes. I would rather handle my mental health on my own than see these people.

I called this center to try and schedule an appointment for my young daughter but the woman who answered was soooo rude that I refused to go any further and hung up on her. How can I be expected to trust my daughters mental health to a facility where they don't even treat people who call them with decency?????

Whoever works the front desk is definitely always in a bad mood. Not professional and makes you regret calling them. Sent them paperwork and have yet to receive a call back on an appointment. Don t waste your time here.

Whatever lady works front desk answering phones on mondays around 11am is very rude and unfriendly. Not comforting coming from a counseling place

I absolutely LOVE my therapist, Noelle. She is attentive, knowledgeable and exceeded my expectations on every front. The front desk staff, however, has been incredibly impatient and rude each time I ve dealt with them. This can make for a disheartening and detrimental first experience with therapy for a vulnerable person seeking help for the first time.
