Partial Hospitalization Program in New Jersey

There are several aspects to our comprehensive PHP. Each client receives a treatment plan utilizing a mix of evidence-based methods, including:

Medication-Assisted Treatment

Our PHP includes medication-assisted treatment (MAT) options, which involve the use of medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings for drugs or alcohol. This evidence-based approach helps some clients maintain their sobriety while minimizing the risk of relapse. It’s important to note that MAT is always used in conjunction with therapy and counseling sessions to ensure a comprehensive and holistic approach to addiction treatment.

Not every client will be a good fit for MAT. We assess the circumstances of each person before recommending medications during PHP treatment.

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive-behavioral therapy is a form of psychotherapy that helps clients identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors related to addiction. During CBT sessions, clients work with a therapist to develop coping skills and strategies for overcoming triggers and managing stress. This type of therapy has been proven effective in treating addiction and preventing relapse, as it addresses the underlying issues that contribute to substance use disorders.

We also utilize other evidence-based therapies, like:

• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). DBT helps you manage intense emotions and improve relationships through mindfulness and emotional regulation skills. It’s effective for individuals struggling with personality disorders or who are prone to self-destructive behaviors.
• Motivational interviewing (MI). MI is a compassionate and empowering approach that encourages you to find your motivation to make positive changes. It can be effective in addressing addictions and other behaviors influenced by fluctuating motivation.
• Person-Centered Therapy. This therapy provides a supportive environment where you feel respected and understood. Here, you lead the conversation, and our therapist acts as a facilitative partner to foster your personal growth and self-discovery.
• Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). REBT helps identify irrational beliefs and negative thought patterns that may lead to emotional or behavioral issues. By addressing these thoughts directly, this therapy helps promote a healthier, more rational way of thinking.

Other therapy methods may also be included in our treatment plans. Each client will receive a personalized approach to therapy and recovery at our centers.

12-Step Programming

Entering recovery with the support of 12-step methods and groups helps individuals surround themselves with a network of resources. Sponsors, peers, and addiction specialists help them work through the stages of acceptance and forgiveness as they practice the skills for sustained sobriety. 12-step methodology is a cornerstone of addiction treatment at BlueCrest Health Group.

Individual Counseling

In addition to group therapy, our PHP includes individual counseling sessions tailored to each client’s unique needs and circumstances. These one-on-one sessions provide an opportunity for clients to delve deeper into their personal challenges, gain insight into the factors that contribute to their addiction, and develop personalized strategies for maintaining sobriety. This customized approach ensures that each client receives the support and guidance they need to achieve lasting recovery.

Family Counseling

Addiction often destroys the bonds between family members. We offer family counseling to help those in recovery reconnect with their loved ones so they can understand how to move forward together. Family counseling sessions also help those around the person in recovery understand the circumstances, emotions, and behaviors that fueled their addiction and made it hard to stop.
