Enlightened Recovery

Safe and Supportive Detox

Enlightened Recovery Detox offers 24/7 medical supervision in a tranquil waterfront setting for individuals beginning recovery from alcohol, opioids, and other substances. Each client receives a personalized plan with medical assessments, withdrawal management, and medication-assisted treatment when appropriate. Typical stays last three to seven days, with individual and group therapy sessions supporting physical stabilization and emotional safety throughout detox.

Holistic Healing in a Restorative Environment

Situated along New Jersey’s scenic Atlantic coast, the facility combines clinical excellence with holistic care to support full-person wellness. Clients can participate in yoga, meditation, acupuncture, and expressive arts to promote relaxation and balance. Private and shared rooms, chef-prepared organic meals, and peaceful outdoor spaces create a calm, luxury environment designed to help clients restore body and mind.

Compassionate, Trauma-Informed Care

The Enlightened Recovery team uses a trauma-informed approach that prioritizes safety, dignity, and respect. Licensed clinicians provide counseling and therapeutic support to address both the physical and emotional aspects of early recovery. This compassionate approach helps clients process challenges, rebuild trust in themselves, and lay the groundwork for long-term healing.

Continuing Care and Recovery Support

Detox is the first step in a connected continuum of care. Case managers help clients transition into residential, partial hospitalization (PHP), or outpatient programs within the Enlightened Recovery network. Each client leaves with a clear aftercare plan, community connections, and access to ongoing peer support, ensuring stability and confidence beyond detox.
