Excel Treatment Center

About Excel Treatment Center – Dover

Founded in 2013, Excel Treatment Center has grown into one of the most outcome driven and successful substance abuse outpatient treatment facilities in the area. Excel Treatment Center is privately owned and is designed to offer an alternative, personal approach to substance abuse treatment.

The Excel Treatment Team is dedicated to providing clients with comprehensive, individualized treatment in an intimate environment. Their clinical staff is trained in substance abuse, social work and professional counseling services and are available to clients for individual, family and group sessions. The goal at Excel Treatment Center is to ensure that clients are given the tools and skills needed to maintain long term sobriety.

Excel Treatment Center exists specifically to provide young adults and adults with compassionate, individualized, science-based treatment of alcohol and substance abuse problems, emotional distress and behavioral problems.

Excel Treatment Center provides a full complement of Adult Outpatient Services to clients and their families including: Substance Abuse Evaluation, Adult Intensive Outpatient Programs, Relapse Prevention Groups, Second Opinion Evaluations for DUI and DWI, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Specialized Substance Abuse Groups, Psychoeducational and Holistic Groups, Family Support Groups, Case Management, Weekly Sessions, Urine Drug Screens, Psychiatric Consultations, Medication Management and Vivitrol (Naltrexone) Injections. Outpatient counseling is intended for individuals who are in need of ongoing support in their recovery from addiction while minimizing disruption in their lives. We also work with Morris County Probation and IDRC. Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is offered in both the day and evening hours.

It is an integrative approach for individuals who require a structured treatment program to assist them in overcoming addiction. In addition to evidence-based practices, we offer holistic treatments as part of our integrative approach to addiction recovery. This includes mindfulness, experiential therapy, expressive art therapy and yoga for recovery. “So the opposite of addiction is not sobriety. It is human connection.” – Johann Hari. At Excel Treatment Center they understand that addiction is a biopsychosocial disease and that it impacts all facets of an individual’s life. A large part of our treatment program is assisting our clients in creating a strong, supportive sober community for themselves by encouraging clients to engage in regular outside self-help support groups. They also work closely with The Milestone House, a sober supportive 12-step living program for men and women, 18+, located right next door. This is not just a sober living facility, but a recovery program that helps our clients to build and maintain a long-lasting recovery by creating a sober supportive community and providing a safe space to transition into sober life. The Milestone House offers in-house meetings, workshops and intensive case management services to assist their residents in getting back to work or school and focus on creating a high level of accountability. This is where treatment life and real life come together and real recovery begins.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

12-Step

12 step programs such as Alcoholics or Narcotics Anonymous are support group style programs for individuals who are experiencing alcohol or substance use disorder. At Evoke they use a holistic model of addiction care that includes using 12 step programs. These programs are an integral part of most relapse prevention plans and provide continued support and accountability that support sobriety.

Aftercare 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).

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.

Intervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.

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.

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.

Sober Living Homes

Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
