OUR LOCATIONS
Levels of Care Offered
At Enlightened Recovery New Jersey, we offer a range of addiction treatment services to help you overcome your addiction. Our inpatient detox program and residential program are both available at our main location in Southern New Jersey. Our partial care program is offered at our South Jersey location. Our intensive outpatient program can be accessed at either of our locations. We are dedicated to helping you navigate your recovery process and helping you to get back on track with your life.
Partial Care Program
A Partial Care Program (PCP) is a type of addiction treatment program that provides a higher level of care than traditional outpatient programs but is less intensive than inpatient programs. PCP is designed for individuals who require more structured and intensive treatment than traditional outpatient programs but do not need around-the-clock medical supervision.
In a partial care program, individuals receive a range of evidence-based therapies, including individual and group counseling, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and holistic therapies. Our PCP offers intensive therapeutic and clinical treatment six days a week, Monday through Saturday, between the hours of 9 am and 3 pm.
This type of program can be beneficial for individuals who are transitioning from inpatient care or need more support than traditional outpatient programs but cannot commit to a full-time inpatient program.
Intensive Outpatient Program
Enlightened Recovery Center offers an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) as a part of its comprehensive addiction treatment services. The intensive outpatient program at Enlightened Recovery Center provides structured and evidence-based treatment options to individuals who require more support than traditional outpatient programs.
The program includes several hours of treatment per day, several days per week, and provides a range of therapies, including holistic therapies, dialectical behavioral therapy, and group/individual therapy.
The IOP at Enlightened Recovery Center is designed to be flexible and tailored to individual needs, providing the necessary support to help individuals achieve and sustain their recovery goals.
Outpatient Program
Outpatient programs are addiction treatment programs that allow individuals to receive treatment while maintaining their daily responsibilities, such as work or school. Unlike inpatient programs, where individuals live on-site for a period of time, outpatient programs offer more flexibility, with individuals attending therapy sessions and group meetings on a schedule that works for them.
Our outpatient programs offer a range of evidence-based therapies, including individual and group counseling, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and medication-assisted treatment. These programs can be a great option for individuals with mild to moderate addiction, those who have completed an inpatient program and need continued support, or those who cannot commit to a full-time program due to personal or financial reasons.
It is important to consult with our addiction treatment professionals to determine the best treatment option for your individual needs.
