About GenPsych Foundation – Bridgewater
GenPsych Foundation is an outpatient drug and alcohol addiction treatment center in Bridgewater, New Jersey. They have a lot of mental health programs and are best known for mental health, but one of their services is dedicated substance abuse treatment. They help people with addiction and those who have a dual diagnosis.
Their two main levels of treatment are a partial hospitalization program (PHP) and an intensive outpatient program (IOP). These are similar because they both have intensive treatment schedules that are mostly based in group therapy while you live at home or in a sober living house. The difference is that the PHP has more hours of treatment per week, so it’s designed for an earlier stage of recovery or a more severe addiction compared to the IOP.
In either case they use evidence based techniques like motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral therapy. Throughout your program you’ll work through the challenges that come with recovery and learn how to live life without drugs and alcohol. You’ll also get an education in addiction, and you’ll have relapse prevention classes too. Peer support is a big part of the program as well, so you’ll develop a strong and supportive community.
They take a non-confrontational approach here, which emphasizes support and positive reinforcement rather than shame or criticism. A typical program lasts for about eight to 12 weeks.
Some clients say that the administrative process is frustrating and complicated. Others didn’t have any issues, though, and say that the therapists are caring and knowledgeable. Most of the concerns clients have are related to medication refills, so it may be best to allow some extra time for communications and details when it comes to medications.
