About The Lennard Clinic – Newark
The Lennard Clinic is a nonprofit addiction counseling treatment provider in Newark, Jersey. The primary treatment provided at this facility is medication assisted treatment. They provide treatment to individuals addicted to prescription drugs and illicit substances.
They desire to see residents of Essex and Union Counties not only decrease their substance use but gain employment, attend school and reduce criminal activities. Their compassionate and dedicated staff includes infectious clinic physicians, case managers, counselors and many other qualified healthcare professionals. You can pay for your treatment through Medicaid, state funded options or sliding scale fees.
The medical staff will work to make sure you receive a safe medication dosage if you need to undergo detoxification. You will either receive methadone or buprenorphine to treat your withdrawal symptoms. As your cravings reduce, counselors will work with you to address the causes of addiction and how it’s affected your life. You’ll learn about coping skills and other tools that can help you in your recovery.
This facility is located right by the Weequahic Lake, where you can enjoy fishing or a relaxing walk in the park. Newark is also a short 30 minute drive from New York City, which has a variety of attractions such as the Statue of Liberty and Times Square.
In the beginning, you’ll be expected to come in for treatment every day to reduce the risk of relapse. The duration of your treatment will vary based on your specific needs. Regardless of when you end treatment, the staff will have a discharge plan prepared for you to help ensure your success with recovery outside of the clinic. Additional services that the Lennard Clinic provides are medication management and crisis intervention.
