About First Step Counseling Services – Metuchen
First Step Counseling in Metuchen, New Jersey provides mental health care and addiction recovery support for youth and adults. Court mandated services are available.
Counseling and recovery education programs are offered for individuals and groups in an outpatient setting. They also prioritize family education and counseling to ensure you have a strong and healthy support system to help you maintain your sobriety over the long term.
Their facility is wheelchair accessible. A urine screening may be required in some cases of court mandated programs. You can ask their staff about telehealth options for remote aftercare and long term checkups.
They emphasize psychological screenings and mental health counseling to support clients’ emotional wellbeing. I like that they have gender separate support groups and programs for members of the LGBTQ+ community and caregivers of the elderly who often have special emotional needs that go unrecognized.
One patient said their counselor helped them make a personal breakthrough during their regular meetings by gaining her trust and helping her to open up. Other people remarked that some of the administrative and insurance tasks were mishandled and communication could be improved.
