Why Choose CNT?

What Is CNT

If you have a family member or friend who suffers from addiction or you find yourself trudging down a path of self-destruction and need help, it brings you to the daunting task of identifying the right detoxification center as more often than not, it is the key to effective treatment.

There are numerous detox centers in NJ, but how do you select the right one? Read on to learn more about the Center for Network Therapy (CNT), New Jersey’s very first rehab center licensed to provide outpatient ambulatory detoxification to deal with the abuse of alcohol, benzodiazepines, opiates (like heroin and methadone), anesthetics, stimulants, and suboxone withdrawal.

CNT believes in gaining the trust of each individual and forging a relationship as the path to recovery can be painful and long. But the ability to take action need not be: an individual can gain admission within 12 hours. Each case manager offers individualized support since every case is different.

 

Counselors provide one-on-one sessions as well as multiple sessions of group therapy each week. CNT realizes that people suffering from an addiction or substance use disorder can feel lonely and isolated; as such, the involvement of an individual’s family plays a crucial role for the person to feel supported while they recover, as well as helps avoid a relapse.

There are various programs and family therapy sessions designed to help the individual and their family members deal with difficult situations.

Although there are several approaches to addiction treatment, CNT evaluates each individual to identify and draw up a treatment strategy best suited for that person. A team of physicians, nurses, and therapists, led by an ASAM-certified addiction psychiatrist, then administers evidence-based therapies (like the Matrix Model and Motivational Enhancement Therapy) to treat and monitor the progress of individuals.

CNT offers a host of treatment options, including the Partial Care or Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), and the Ambulatory (Outpatient) Detox (Medically Monitored Ambulatory Detoxification – MMAD.)

The duration of a PHP is short-term and requires 20+ hours each week. It involves intensive therapy and programs for those individuals who require treatment for a comorbid psychiatric condition as well as addictive behavior, including substance abuse. Clinicians at CNT offer individual and group therapy in a confidential and secure environment, with a clear focus on recovery and, most importantly, relapse prevention skills. Although medication is prescribed, the patient can go home at the end of each day.

An IOP comprises 9 hours of clinical treatment each week. Patients participate in individual therapy sessions and group therapy spread over 3-5 days during the daytime or in the evenings. As the program does not require hospitalization, patients can undergo outpatient detoxification and, at the same time, continue with their work or study commitments.

Regular meetings are held to enable patients to successfully recover through a 12-step-based program. CNT believes that an IOP bridges the gap between residential treatment and outpatient treatment, offering all the advantages of continuing frequent and regular addiction treatment or therapies. These programs enable patients to return or adjust to their routine without disrupting treatment.

Ambulatory (Outpatient) Detox serves as an alternative and, often, better option to inpatient detoxification programs as it emphasizes the integration of the environment at home into the treatment. CNT has a proven track record of providing outpatient detoxification programs successfully for more than five years. Patients are taught skills that they apply in their daily lives; they participate in sessions and then discuss their successes and failures in implementing the lessons.

If a patient is struggling with a personal issue and feels too self-conscious talking about it in a group session, individual therapy is offered as an alternative. Patients are more relaxed as they can stay in the comfort of their own homes after each session and do not feel isolated from family members and friends.

CNT also admits patients showing symptoms of acute withdrawal. Although medicine-assisted treatment is the best approach for patients suffering from severe addiction, CNT lays equal emphasis on the inclusion and involvement of family and friends to ensure that a patient continues with the therapy after detox.

The doctors at CNT firmly believe that the continuum of care defines the levels of intensity of treatment offered to patients. Before treatment is started, a series of evaluations are done to assess the needs of every patient.

Levels of the continuum of care include medically supervised detoxification programs, IOP, PHP, outpatient services, and aftercare. Apart from PHP and IOP for patients who want to continue treatment at CNT, individuals can gain admission directly to these levels of care as well.

CNT, located at 333 Cedar Ave. (Bldg. B) in Middlesex, NJ is open seven days a week. The friendly and caring staff guarantee patients a pleasant experience whilst undergoing treatment at the facility. CNT provides and administers all medications for detoxification at the facility. Patients are allowed to use their mobile phones and have access to Wi-Fi. Meals, snacks and beverages are also available.

No more hiding behind a veil of shame or anger – or feeling confused about where to seek help. Let the experts at CNT fight with you, by your side, in your battle to achieve sobriety.
