A 60-second walkthrough of the Tinton Falls clinic, the space where the program actually runs.
Cocaine addiction treatment at The Archangel Centers in Tinton Falls treats adults with cocaine use disorder, often alongside co-occurring depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, or other mental health conditions. The full outpatient continuum is delivered on-site, serving clients across Monmouth County and the Jersey Shore.
Cocaine has a binge-and-crash pattern that drives a particular kind of clinical picture. The high is short-lived, the urge to redose is intense, and the crash brings depression, exhaustion, and craving. Most cocaine clients describe their use in episodes that escalate over a weekend or a string of nights, not as steady daily use.
The supply has gotten more dangerous. Cocaine is now frequently contaminated with fentanyl, sometimes by accident, sometimes deliberately, and cocaine-fentanyl overdoses are rising fast across the country. Every cocaine client in our program gets the same naloxone-in-the-household conversation as opioid clients.
There is no MAT for cocaine in the way there is for opioids or alcohol. Treatment is built on behavioral interventions delivered through Partial Care or PHP first, stepping down through IOP and OP, with medications used selectively for co-occurring depression, anxiety, sleep, or attention symptoms.
The Tinton Falls clinic operates under New Jersey DMHAS state licensure for outpatient SUD and co-occurring mental health programming. Clinical work follows the ASAM framework. Clinical leadership is held by Jamie Salsberg, Clinical Director. We do not assert accreditations the clinic does not hold.
Our New Jersey program runs a six-day Partial Care clinical week, which compresses the high-risk weekend gap that drives so many early relapses. Single-call admissions cover clinical assessment, insurance verification, and clinical review with a scheduled start date. Same-week placement is often possible.
The Tinton Falls clinic at 44 Apple Street, Suite 3 sits ten minutes south of Red Bank, off Route 35. The team works with a manageable caseload so the assigned primary therapist holds the longitudinal view across the continuum.
For cocaine use disorder specifically, the program leans on three things. First, the speed of the admissions process, a 24/7 line, single-call assessment, and same-week placement when clinically indicated. Second, the integration of medication management with the behavioral work; the on-site medical provider sees new clients within approximately 48 hours and stays connected to the clinical team throughout. Third, Evidence-based therapies adapted for stimulant use disorder. With no FDA-approved MAT, behavioral interventions carry the load: CBT trigger work, DBT urge-surfing, contingency-management principles in the urine-drug-screen schedule, plus medication for co-occurring depression, anxiety, or attention symptoms where indicated.
The Archangel Centers was founded by Mike Sorrentino, a recovery advocate with more than a decade in active recovery, with co-founder Lauren Sorrentino. The clinical and medical leadership team includes licensed NJ clinicians, the on-site medical provider, and case management, small enough that each client knows their primary therapist by name.

Group rooms, private therapy offices, the medical office, family programming rooms, and the wellness space, designed for clinical depth and nervous-system regulation.
Cocaine withdrawal is primarily psychological rather than physical. Clients describe profound fatigue, depressed mood, intense cravings, vivid unpleasant dreams, and increased appetite, peaking days 2 through 5 after last use. There is no acute medical danger to cocaine withdrawal, which is why coordinated medical detox is rarely needed; the danger is the depressive crash that drives early relapse.
Medical detox is rarely required for this substance, most clients begin in Partial Care or PHP directly.
Medical detox is rarely required for cocaine use disorder. Most clients begin in Partial Care, IOP, or OP based on the clinical assessment. For clients arriving in active withdrawal or with polysubstance complications, coordinated medical detox at an accredited partner facility is available, see coordinated medical detox at Tinton Falls.
No FDA-approved MAT for cocaine use disorder. Behavioral interventions are the primary intervention. CBT targets the trigger-thought-craving chain; DBT supports distress tolerance during cravings; contingency-management principles inform the treatment plan and the urine-drug-screen schedule.
Medication where indicated: Antidepressants for the depressive crash that follows extended use, sleep medications used short-term for the disrupted sleep architecture, and treatment for co-occurring ADHD or anxiety where it is part of the picture. Medication decisions are made by the medical provider based on the clinical presentation, not the cocaine use itself.
Contingency-management framing: Drug screens are not punishments, they are clinical information. A positive screen prompts a same-week clinical review and a treatment-plan adjustment, often a step-up in care intensity for a defined period.
Substance use disorder is a clinical diagnosis with specific criteria. If several of the following describe the current pattern, a clinical assessment at our Tinton Falls clinic is the right next step.
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 ModalitiesThe full outpatient continuum is delivered on-site. The clinical assessment matches each client to the appropriate starting level based on severity, withdrawal status, work and family responsibilities, and history of prior treatment.
| Level | Schedule | Typical length | Page |
|---|---|---|---|
| Partial Care (PHP) | 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM, Monday through Saturday (six-day clinical week) | Approximately 30 days, clinically driven | Partial Care at Tinton Falls |
| Intensive Outpatient (IOP) | 3 or 5 days a week, 3 clinical hours per session | Approximately 30 to 60 days, clinically driven | IOP at Tinton Falls |
| Outpatient (OP) | Flexible, individual therapy + periodic continuing-care groups | Open-ended continuing care | OP at Tinton Falls |
| Virtual Treatment | Remote delivery, available to NJ residents | Matches IOP or OP intensity | (Routed through admissions) |
The arc varies by client, but the following stages are typical for cocaine use disorder clients moving through the Archangel Centers continuum.
Most clients sleep heavily for several days, then sleep architecture remains disrupted for weeks. Clinical work supports sleep hygiene and short-term medication if indicated. Daily contact in Partial Care or PHP keeps the structure tight when motivation is lowest.
The post-cocaine depressive trough lifts gradually. PHQ-9 is re-administered to track. Antidepressants are initiated where clinical depression is part of the picture.
CBT trigger maps are detailed and specific, people, places, money rituals, drinking contexts. DBT urge-surfing skills are practiced in group and reinforced in individual sessions.
Many cocaine clients have untreated ADHD, anxiety, or depression that drove the original use. The medical provider initiates appropriate treatment alongside the SUD work.
Written coping plans, refusal skills, and a clear step-down path through IOP to OP. Alumni programming begins. Drug screens continue at a frequency set by the treatment plan.

“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.
