“Archangels gave me my life back. Their team is the most amazing, caring people I have ever met. The housing they sent me to was amazing, the groups are amazing, and this whole project is amazing. If you're tired of being sick and tired, reach out and save your life.”
“This facility is run by some of the best people you could ever ask for. They are extremely professional and truly dedicated to helping those struggling with mental health and addiction. They truly saved my life. I will be forever grateful for everything they did for me.”
“I had the honor of touring this facility, and it was absolutely beautiful, clean, and thoughtfully designed. But more than how it looked, you could feel the love in every detail. Watching the staff interact with clients genuinely touched my heart.”

A 60-second walkthrough of the Tinton Falls clinic, the space where the program actually runs.
Outpatient treatment (often abbreviated OP, ASAM Level 1) is the lightest-touch level of formal addiction treatment. It is structured care, but it does not dominate a person's week. Clients meet with a primary therapist for individual sessions, may attend periodic groups, and (where applicable) continue medication-assisted treatment with the medical provider. OP is the level most clients spend the longest time at, both as a starting level for mild presentations and as the long-running maintenance phase after stepping down from higher intensity.
In the ASAM Criteria, OP is defined by less than 9 clinical hours per week, in a clinic or virtual setting. The structure typically includes:
OP fits several clinical pictures:
Group rooms, private therapy offices, the medical office, family programming rooms, and the wellness space, designed for clinical depth and nervous-system regulation.
OP is the least uniform level of care across providers, because the program is built around the treatment plan rather than a fixed schedule. A typical client might:
For OP at our specific clinics, see OP at Tinton Falls and OP at Charlotte.
There is no fixed length. OP often continues for months, sometimes years, with frequency tapering as the client stabilizes. Some clients remain in OP indefinitely as a maintenance level, particularly clients on MAT.
OP is the level of care most compatible with normal life. Most OP clients work, parent, attend school, and engage in normal social activity without disruption. The clinical time is one to several hours per week or less.
Treatment integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, narrative therapy, and trauma-informed care with EMDR available in individual therapy. The medical provider manages MAT (Suboxone, Vivitrol, Sublocade) and psychiatric medications when indicated.
Intake uses the full evidence-based battery: ASAM Criteria, LOCUS for mental health acuity, PHQ-9, GAD-7, the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale, plus biopsychosocial, nutrition, and pain screens. The assessment drives the treatment plan from day one.
See Our ModalitiesIf symptoms intensify during OP, the clinical team can step the client up to IOP or PHP for a defined period. Stepping up is clinically responsive, not a failure. The relationship continues; the intensity adjusts.
If you are ready to start (or continue) treatment rather than keep researching, you can jump directly to the clinic that serves your region:
Both clinics preserve the same primary-therapist relationship across step-down from PHP and IOP. The clinical relationship is the constant; the level of care is the variable. Verify your insurance free of charge.
“I came back from rock bottom. I'm here because I want to show others they can too. This isn't just a business. It's my mission.”- Mike Sorrentino, Founder
Mike and Lauren Sorrentino did not set out to build a generic treatment center. They wanted a recovery-grounded program that mixes lived experience, licensed clinical expertise, and family programming that actually moves the needle for the people who love someone in active addiction.
The clinic that resulted is small enough that each client knows their primary therapist by name, but resourced enough to deliver the full ASAM continuum from Partial Care through outpatient continuing care, with MAT and EMDR available when clinically indicated.

Confidential, 24/7 admissions. Same-week placement is often available. Verify your insurance free of charge before any commitment.
