About Integrity House Secaucus Inpatient, Residential, and Outpatient

Integrity House is an addiction recovery facility in Secaucus, New Jersey. The organization takes a holistic approach to treating substance abuse by offering mental health and healthcare services. They also provide employment readiness and education services. The options for treatment include short term and long term residential treatment and a halfway house program for men and women. Integrity House desires to help not only individuals but families and communities by improving their mental and physical health. Former participants in their program have gone on to be more involved with their families and maintain employment and a stable lifestyle.

The form of care staff members place a client in will depend on the severity of the addiction. The short term residential program provides intensive treatment for substance use and co-occurring disorders. Intensive treatment usually requires several hours of individual and group counseling sessions throughout the week. Long term residential treatment is intended for men and women who have had a history of chronic relapse. These programs may involve an increased amount of hours in counseling sessions throughout the week and a stay that can last several months. After completion of the program, clients are typically downgraded to a less intensive form of treatment.

The halfway house program provides assistance with re-entering the community, sustaining sobriety and repairing family relationships. Halfway houses are generally considered a bridge between rehabilitation and being able to live an independent life again. They provide assistance in securing the stable employment clients need to financially support themselves.

I don't know the name of the guard or person that let him use the phone ,but when my son asked the question how can my family get in touch with me if there is an emergency he was belittle and yelled at . Remind you my son signed himself in to integrity house thinking that they were going to help him ,this is not the case . The only thing that is done there are meetings after meetings in group a big waste of time . So getting back to him getting belittled (and I heard this ). I asked him what is going on there? So my son on the phone with me started to whisper he said Mom this place is bad .So I called Christine (the person that said this place was the right place for him)and told her what had happened. She said I personally will go and see the employee and then tell the person running the house. Nothing got done. Next the food there shouldn't be given even to animals.Nothing to drink but water . When you go to your room at night you cannottake anything with you . Bathroom everybody uses I small bathroom. TV room can't walk around tiny. This place is bad .

Accepted Insurance

Integrity House Secaucus Inpatient, Residential, and Outpatient works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

aftercare iconAftercare Support
Clients in a rehab aftercare program have typically completed detox and intensive inpatient and are medically stable. These programs are designed to address addiction recovery as a life-long process. Outpatient counseling and recovery education are typically categorized as drug rehab aftercare, but many clients continue to receive support after being discharged from formal outpatient treatment. Case managers and recovery teams facilitate clients' access to peer coaching, career counseling, 12 step program induction, and related services.
12-step icon12-Step
12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).
sober-living iconSober Living Homes
Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.
outpatient iconOutpatient
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 iconMedically 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.

Treatments

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 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.

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.

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.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Motivational interviewing helps clients find their motivation to change. It can be an effective method to work with clients who are angry or hostile or feel insecure about their ability to make changes in their lives. It is often used during addiction treatment or to manage physical health conditions.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I was visiting a loved one of a client there just recently. I dropped off 100.00 in there account so they can shop for personal care items. Only to find out upon exit that the client had left on her own even court ordered if that. Jenna the director told me that the client is to pick up the money. I dropped the money of Sunday at 1pm only to return at 9 AM Monday to be denied. Why should the consumer pick up the funds that they can relapse an I have a wake to go to. So I got scammed out of my money by Integrity house. They should have a policy in place. This tells me the higher ups do not no what there doing so I defiantly would not trust this place. Total manipulation.

If I can put 0 stars I would, can I start off with Ms. Eman the Muslim lady that works there tried to belittle me because she wanted to show off her power there and also because I was a recovering Arab Muslim as well, being judgmental and acting like she owns the place, she is really the worst one working there if I had to pick out of all the people working there. Ms. C was the one bullying me, and put me down the most. I couldn t handle it no more. They re belittling and bullying and it was too much gang activity going on in there. They don t feed good food to us, I couldn t process it anymore. This place makes you worse if anything. You can t even defend yourself, it made me feel worse than ever, this is WORSE THAN JAIL! You don t recover yourself here, you come out feeling worse.Salwa Diab

Staff treat the people here like human garbage. Group humiliation done by staff forcing other patients to participate. Gangs Gangs Gangs control the place behind the scenes, they put bloods, crips, and Latin kings all together in a dorm setting. Even if ur not affiliated with a gang if your dorm mate is in one you are automatically treated as an enemy of the rival gang. On the adult wing you would hear Screams at night of heroin addicts being strapped to beds while withdrawaling off IV heroin use cold turkey, mostly homeless people from the area men and women. Most of the kids in this place took it as a way out of minor drug offense and the "counselors" make them out to be bigger addicts, have more issues, or made up issues to justify their jobs to their bosses and government funding. The we had 3 bedbug outbreaks while I was there. Every day I woke up in sores and bites from them. The staff puts races against each other.. The name "therapeutic community" is a misnomer this place destroys peoples sense of self by "breaking you down to build you back up again" they use psychological tactics and tricks to make people submit. single out those they don't like especially; favoritism is rampant in this place. They make you do Roman chairs on the wall for hours on end without breaks basically until your legs start shaking and you collapse, starring at the wall for hours, forcing you to hold out your arms parallel with the ground and if you drop them your time starts all over again.. These "exercises" would be done for hours on end, some of the kids would puke or pass out from these extreme hazing or punishment rituals.If you want your child to get better this is the last place you want to send them. They will come out of the experience worse than they were before.If you like hazing, gang violence, a facility ran by addicts with little to no oversight by staff, extreme exercises punishment rituals, group humiliation, yelling and screaming from staff and your peers making up things ect, torture exercises, bare minimum living with horrible food.... THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU!!
