A lot of people don’t realize how often substance use and mental health struggles go hand in hand. Studies suggest that nearly half of those dealing with addiction are also managing conditions like anxiety, depression, or PTSD. The best way to support real, lasting recovery is to treat both at the same time. That’s why approaches like talk therapy, medication support, and structured counseling are so effective. When someone gets help for both addiction and mental health challenges together, they have a much better chance of staying on track and rebuilding their life. 1

At Saddle Brook Counseling Center, we recognize that recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all. We treat a wide range of substance use and mental health disorders with care that’s personalized for each person. Whether someone is struggling with alcohol, prescription medications, or other substances, we offer guidance and proven strategies to help them take back control. Beyond addiction, we also provide support for anxiety, depression, trauma, and mood disorders. Our outpatient programs create a safe space where people can work through challenges and build a strong foundation for their future.

If you or someone close to you needs help, you don’t have to face it alone. The team at Saddle Brook Counseling Center is here to provide real solutions and compassionate support every step of the way. Call us today to learn how our programs can help you move forward.

Treatment for Substance Use Disorders

Struggling with substance use can affect a person’s health, relationships, and daily responsibilities. At Saddle Brook Counseling Center, we help individuals regain control through structured outpatient programs. Our team treats a wide range of substance use disorders, including:

Alcohol

Alcohol addiction can be difficult to manage alone. We offer therapy, education, and coping strategies to help individuals build a foundation for sobriety.

Prescription Drugs

Misuse of prescription medications, including painkillers, sedatives, and stimulants, can lead to dependence. Our programs focus on healing the body and mind to support lasting recovery.

Stimulants

Drugs like cocaine and methamphetamine can take a serious toll on both the body and mind. Our treatment programs focus on breaking dependence and building healthier coping mechanisms.

Benzodiazepines

Medications like Xanax, Valium, and Klonopin can be highly addictive. We provide structured treatment to help individuals safely reduce dependence and develop healthier alternatives for managing anxiety and stress.

Opioids

Opioid addiction, including heroin and prescription painkillers, requires a specialized approach. Our therapy and support services help individuals break free from opioid dependence and reclaim their lives.

Synthetic Drugs

Synthetic substances like K2/spice and bath salts can have unpredictable effects. Our treatment programs provide education, counseling, and recovery tools tailored to these substances.

Co-Occurring Mental Health Disorders

A significant number of people dealing with substance use also battle mental health issues. Research suggests that over 60% of people facing addiction also cope with mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, or bipolar disorder. When both conditions are present, they can reinforce each other—untreated mental health issues can lead to increased substance use, while substance use can exacerbate psychiatric symptoms. This makes an integrated approach to treatment crucial for long-term recovery. 2

Addressing all aspects of mental health alongside addiction treatment improves outcomes significantly. Research has shown that treating both disorders simultaneously leads to lower relapse rates, improved emotional well-being, and improved quality of life. Therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) are effective in helping people identify and shift negative thought patterns that can contribute to both substance use and mental health struggles.3

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotional regulation and distress tolerance, which are critical for individuals experiencing intense emotions linked to addiction and co-occurring disorders. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) provides essential support by helping to manage cravings and balance mental health symptoms, allowing people to focus more on their recovery and therapy.

Our Substance Use Disorder Treatment Program Offerings at Saddle Brook Counseling Center

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Life doesn’t stop when you’re in recovery, and our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is designed with that in mind. This program provides structure and support while allowing you to keep up with work, school, and family responsibilities. Through therapy sessions, we help you develop healthy coping skills, work on relapse prevention, and focus on emotional wellness.

Outpatient Program

Not everyone needs intensive treatment, but having ongoing support can make a big difference. Our outpatient program offers flexibility for those who want to continue accessing therapy and group counseling while balancing everyday life.

Virtual Treatment for Substance Use

Getting help shouldn’t be limited by where you live or how busy your schedule is. Our virtual treatment program gives you access to professional counseling from home. Whether you need one-on-one therapy or group support, our online services ensure you’re not going through recovery alone.

Mental Health Disorder Treatment

Mental health struggles can be just as tough as substance use challenges, and finding the right help makes all the difference. Our programs are designed to give people the tools and support to manage their mental health and start feeling better.

Depression

Depression can make everyday life feel exhausting, turning simple tasks into overwhelming challenges. It’s not just about feeling sad—it can drain energy, motivation, and joy. Our therapy programs help individuals recognize their symptoms, explore effective coping methods, and take steps toward feeling more like themselves again.

Anxiety Disorders

Constant worry and fear can make it hard to focus, relax, or even go about daily activities. Whether it’s generalized anxiety, social anxiety, or panic attacks, these feelings can take a serious toll. We help individuals identify what triggers their anxiety, learn techniques to manage stress, and build confidence in handling situations that once felt overwhelming.

Trauma-Related Disorders

Going through trauma can leave lasting emotional scars, sometimes leading to PTSD or ongoing distress. Everyone processes trauma differently, but healing is possible with the right support. We provide a space where individuals can talk about their experiences, learn healthy coping techniques, and work toward feeling more secure and in control of their lives.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

OCD can disrupt daily life with persistent thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Our therapy programs use proven techniques to help individuals regain control, manage intrusive thoughts, and develop healthier responses.

Mood Disorders

Living with bipolar disorder or other mood-related conditions can make it difficult to maintain stability. Our programs focus on helping individuals recognize mood patterns, learn coping techniques, and find a balance that supports their overall well-being.

Our Mental Health Treatment Programs

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Managing mental health while keeping up with work, school, or family obligations can be overwhelming. Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) provides structured, evidence-based therapy that allows individuals to receive the support they need without stepping away from daily life. Through a mix of one-on-one counseling, group discussions, and practical skill-building, this program gives people the tools to handle stress, manage emotions, and create lasting stability in their lives.

Virtual Mental Health Treatment & Counseling

Not everyone can attend therapy in person, which is why we offer virtual sessions. Our online program makes it easy to connect with a professional therapist from wherever you are, ensuring you get the support you need without the barriers of travel or scheduling conflicts.

Whether it’s one-on-one counseling or group therapy, our online treatment options offer the same level of support as traditional therapy while providing the flexibility needed to fit treatment into a busy schedule. Virtual sessions allow individuals to connect with experienced therapists, develop coping skills, and receive guidance—all from the comfort of home.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, because mental health and substance use are often connected, it’s important to treat both at the same time. Many people turn to substances as a way to cope with anxiety, depression, or trauma, and if those issues aren’t addressed, staying in recovery can be much harder. Our programs focus on both addiction and mental health, giving individuals the support they need to work through challenges and build healthier coping skills.

Most insurance plans cover substance use and mental health treatment, but the details can vary. The best way to find out what’s covered is to contact your insurance provider or our team. We can help verify your benefits and explain your options so you can focus on getting the care you need without added stress.

The right program depends on several factors, including the severity of symptoms, personal responsibilities, and treatment history. Some people need a structured, intensive program, while others benefit from a more flexible approach. If you’re unsure, our team can guide you through an assessment to determine which level of care best fits your needs. The most important thing is to take that first step and seek help.
