ABOUT FOOTPRINTS TO RECOVERY
Footprints to Recovery is one of New Jersey’s 330 (88.9 percent) outpatient drug and alcohol addiction treatment centers. Located in Hamilton, N.J., our facility offers family-centric treatment options for adults, including standard and intensive outpatient programs (IOP) and a partial hospitalization program (PHP). We also provide specifically-tailored programming for young adults, making us one of the 148 (39.9 percent) New Jersey treatment facilities to offer this. Please note that we do not offer detox services.
TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT
At Footprints to Recovery, we approach recovery as a journey and not a destination. We take into account various factors – biological, familial, social, psychological, and physical – to address each client’s unique treatment needs. Our outpatient treatment is designed to provide adults with scheduling flexibility, allowing them to maintain their ongoing life commitments.
Our comprehensive outpatient treatment incorporates a range of evidence-based modalities, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), didactic group therapy, and motivational interviewing (MI), all rooted in 12-step principles. In addition to one-on-one counseling and group therapy sessions, clients engage in life skills and relapse prevention trainings to understand the concept of “sober living”. For holistic approaches, we offer alternative therapies like yoga, massage, and acupuncture, in addition to necessary medication.
We believe that family involvement is crucial to a successful recovery, which is why we arrange both individual and group family sessions. These provide an opportunity for families to repair broken relationships and learn about the addiction and recovery processes. Prior to completing their outpatient treatment, clients work with their counselors to develop detailed aftercare plans, including local 12-step meetings, identifying potential triggers, and addressing co-occurring disorders.
