Center for Great Expectations – North Brunswick Detox and Rehab Services

Center for Great Expectations – North Brunswick carries a listing for intensive outpatient and outpatient care. Structured outpatient runs to a schedule while people return home in the evening. Which of these is appropriate depends on an assessment, not on what sounds manageable at the time.

The listing records a single focus rather than combined treatment, so anyone needing both should confirm what is available. Medication and talking treatment run together under clinical oversight. Ask directly about session times and frequency, as those details decide whether someone can realistically attend.

The very first time I walked in the office it felt like coming into somewhere that cares about people. I can not give Terry enough starts. He is amazing and helped me from the very first second I walked in. HE HELPED… EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. I CAN GO ON AND ON BUT JUST KNOW IF YOU UAVE MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES OR ADDICTION ISSUES THIA IS THE PLACE FOU NEED TO GO TO. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆. Thank to all the experts and therapist that work there.

IOP is bad. They use kids who are still in school and the help is not great at all. There is only one person who really helps. Three times a week for three hours each day. Come to find out they just want your money and… want to bill your insurance as much as possible. Every time you go in they purposely drug test you because they are charging your insurance $1,500 for each drug test and they get a kick back out of that money. Thats the real reason for a test every time you come in. They lie and just want your money. Someone I know went there and was almost out and suddenly the test came back dirty after being clean all other tests. You just know when a place is all about money and this is it.

Reception people are always so friendly and helpful! They also have very good counselors. I like this place a lot.

★☆☆☆☆
Richard “Rick” Rogers7 years ago

Unprofessional, group sessions quickly dropped off to just me, 3 times a week, 3 hours each night. And a lot of staff turnover in the 1.5 months I enlisted help.

★★★★★
Radames Arvelo8 years ago

They have by far the best counselors in here. I have been to many programs, but nothing can compare to this one. I don't know how they employed so many kind hearted people here. I have never been to a program where… every staff TRULY cares. For holidays they bless people with gifts, clothes,gift cards, whatever you can name they will go out of their way for anyone. This program really helped me and it can do the same for you. They 're very understanding and have your best interest at heart. Even the receptionists are both sweethearts. I truly recommend this program for anyone that's trying to rehabilitate themselves, their isn't a place better to go, I mean that from the bottom of my heart

Morgan Shire9 years ago

Great IOP program with both female only & male only groups available. Amazing staff & counselors truly care for each client. APN available for consults for clients needing psychiatric medication to assist with… recovery/sobriety.
