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.

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

Aftercare

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

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).

Intervention Services

A drug intervention in New Jersey is more than a confrontational conversation. This organized effort is specific and goal-oriented. During the intervention, family members share specific examples of how the person's addiction has impacted their lives and spell out what they will do if the individual does not get treatment. The intervention also presents a clear treatment plan, which typically involves input from intervention services.

Partial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term, intensive outpatient option designed for those with moderate to severe addictions who don't require 24-hour care. PHP treatment is often fully covered by insurance and provides structured programming (i.e. individual and group therapy). A typical partial hospitalization program can meet 3-5 days a week for a minimum of 20 hours, offering intensive treatment during the day while allowing you to return home after. PHP treatment duration can vary based on your progress but averages 90 days.

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.

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.

Substance Abuse

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.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in New Jersey typically follows a set structure of treatment. The therapist helps clients identify their life challenges and their thoughts surrounding those challenges. The client then learns to identify unhealthy thought patterns and reshape those into healthy patterns of thinking and behavior.

Motivational Interviewing

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

Trauma therapy provides a structure to approach healing from past traumatic events that you may have witnessed or experienced. Your therapist will work with you to identify and process these memories. This helps promote a sense of safety and stability and helps you heal emotionally.

Accreditations

My commendation is for one the most caring employee on the staff of The Lenards methadone clinic. Mr. Stephen Thomas utilizes his own technique for working with people suffering from the disease of addiction. Mr. Thomas uses a mixture of patience tolerance and the kind of personal attention that most addicts have never known. His unique attire which is always office appropriate compelled myself and others to try and emulate his clean cut all American style. No longer do I, as a young women 65yrs old walk outside to conduct business in a pair of DAIZY DUKES due to my admiration of MrStepben Thomas choices of clothes from head to toe. Whenever there s a problem in the sudden time changes we can depend on him to make that extra call to notify those of us who are on a level where as it s inconvenient to come to the clinic just to read the walls of numerous flyers with sudden early closing hours we would otherwise know nothing about until we show up only to find the clinic CLOSED. It use to be very upsetting to see some workers speaking down to clients who clearly where treated as if we were beneath the counselors. It s refreshing to know he view us as equally important. Worthy of respect. Sometimes we have observed him limping a little more than usual but when asked if there s anything we can do to help, he will tell a joke or flash that Enffectious smile and all is well with the world. There are times when his case load is calling while he s in the middle of extinguishing an emotional fire. In these situations I personally have witnessed his expertise in the field of dual diagnosis manifests itself in his manner during such trying times. I find myself being attracted to his work ethics and the principles he undoubtedly live by. Like honesty patients and tolerance. Yesss . We as clients watch what our care takers do because most of us are looking for any excuse to prove your program DONT WORK. I m happy to say Mr STEPHEN THOMAS HAS NEVER been anything other than caring. Even when he must be firm with us We instinctively are aware of his intentions to hurt us with the truth instead of killing us with kindness. LITERALLY. There are those who will smile in my face and tell me exactly what I want to hear just to shut me up. Not MR Stephen Thomas. On occasion he had to give me tough love that I couldn t at the time understand. However, afterwards I came to appreciate his firm but caring assertiveness instead of aggressiveness Thank you for hiring him. I would also like a copy of my letter be placed in his P FILE or that he be given a copy of my appreciative note of thanks.

At Lennard Clinic my counselor Mrs. Davis is the best part of my recovery program. I can talk to her about anything that is going on in my life and get the help that I need. I have not used any thing since I started this program and that's a good thing. My future looks bright and I see good things for myself. I thank God and my counselor Mrs. Davis for this.
