Providing treatment and support for individuals and families coping
with substance use disorders and other related issues
In 2008, Atlantic Prevention Resources (APR) became licensed by the New Jersey Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services to provide outpatient and intensive outpatient substance abuse treatment for adults. Services include interventions, initial assessments, individual, group, and family counseling, and Certified Peer Recovery support led by licensed and certified clinicians specializing in addiction recovery.
The APR treatment team is committed to providing the highest quality of service by using evidence-based practice, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and more. We firmly believe in the theory that addiction is a progressive disease, which is treatable through proper intervention and motivational strategies. APR empowers clients through Solution- Focused, Strength-Based interventions, while understanding and advocating for the dignity and respect of all served. Furthermore, APR is a culturally competent agency that stands against discrimination targeted toward, race, ethnicity, socio-economic class, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, age.
If you or a loved one is having problems with substance abuse, we can help. Our goal is to have them live a healthy life, free of substances. We care because a lot of us at APR have been there too. We understand first-hand what substance abuse can do to families and individuals. We are not only guided by clinical knowledge, but also by personal experience.
TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY
APR’s treatment program is based on research indicating that effective interventions and treatment results in long-term recovery. We believe that treatment results in a reduction in negative consequences for patients, their families, friends and society as a whole. Our aim is that our treatment fits the specific and changing needs of an individual. Finally, we believe that substance use disorders are chronic and progressive. Continued treatment and support services are required after any initial course of treatment.
