Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

An individual outpatient treatment program is available for those who continue beyond completion of the IOP program. Two sessions are available, for day and evening attendance. Outpatient programs are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Treatment (also known as IOP for "Intensive Outpatient Program") is a primary treatment program recommended in some circumstances by a clinical and medical assessment. IOP may be recommended for those who do not need medically-supervised detox. IOP can also enable people in recovery to continue their recovery therapies following successful detox, on a part-time yet intensive schedule, designed to accommodate work and family life.

12-step icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). The 12 Step approach to counseling is very effective, and forms the basis of peer support that has proven to be essential for successful recovery in many cases. Most of their individualized client treatment plans include participation in 12-step meetings.

aftercare iconAftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

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.

drugs iconDrug 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.

check iconDual 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 iconMental 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.

opium iconOpioid 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.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

couples-therapy iconCouples 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 iconFamily Therapy

Research has shown the individuals whose families are involved in treatment have a much better prognosis and a higher success rate. The Counseling Center at Fair Lawn will make a concerted effort to include family members in treatment whenever possible. The goal of the family education program is to provide family members with information and support that will assist clients in their recovery. A family education group will be held every week (typically Wednesday from 6:30 pm to 10:00 pm, but please check the schedule).

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). At The Counseling Center, they seek to always run small group meetings of 10 people or less. They find that smaller groups are more comfortable for those participating and sharing, and allow for more careful review of important topics under discussion.

mental-health iconIndividual 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.

This is the third company I've used. The 1st 2 were awful - if anything, they worsened my situation.This place is exactly what I needed.Everyone is easy to get a hold of and they do what they're supposed to do - help.Christen at the front desk is great - she takes care of a lot by herself.If she's unable to help, she let's my counselor know ASAP.That brings me to her - Christy.She literally fixed an entire (bad) situation for me. Simply amazing. Thanks!

I have been struggling with mental health and substance use for the past 5 years. I started at a different counseling center for IOP for substance use, it is the only thing that has helped me gain long term sobriety. They referred me to Freehold to start Spravato treatments for treatment resistant depression. The nurses and staff there are very kind. I feel very thankful that I have found a center that has helped me get approved for Spravato, assists with transportation, and gives me a much needed breath of hope.

We are incredibly glad to hear that you have found our staff to be kind and supportive and that you have been able to receive treatment for your mental health and substance use concerns through Spravato. Thank you for entrusting us with your care, and please do not hesitate to reach out if there is anything else we can do to support you on your path toward healing.

I have been in recovery for a very long time, I have been with these people for two weeks. And that two weeks I have been patronized, ignored, lied to, and been made nothing but broken promises. The medical staff are not contactable by the clients directly. They deal with prescription issues when they feel like it and not when they need to be done. I highly recommend going to choice point for online IOP and stay away from the counseling center

Response from the owner1 year ago
We understand that recovery can be a challenging journey, and we take our responsibility to support our clients very seriously. We strive to provide a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment for our clients, and it is disheartening to hear that you felt patronized and ignored. Regarding the issue with prescription management, we do our best to ensure that all medication needs are met promptly and efficiently. Please feel free to reach out to discuss this further at 888-788-8247.

Amateur hour. Was given the run around by medical and administration staff. Worse than worthless if you are truly seeking help. They only care about money and their service is pathetic, constant excuse making, rescheduling and unfortunately combativeness. First impressions mean everything and they have faltered every. step. of. the. way. Stay far away.

Response from the owner1 year ago
Hi Heather, thank you for taking time to leave a review. It's important to note that healthcare providers have a responsibility to prioritize patient care and well-being over profits. Client satisfaction and outcomes are always our primary concern. Feel free to give a call to discuss this matter further at 888-788-8247. Constructive feedback helps us improve our services and address any issues that may be hindering client care.

We here at the Center for Network Therapy like to live up to our beliefs, philosophy and drive for quaility care. We are not the counseling Center in freehold. We are sorry to hear of anyone's experience that may have been a difficult fist time experience.
