Southern Highlands CMHC Inc

They offer inpatient hospital, outpatient, inpatient residential, detox and telemedicine. The practical difference is whether you sleep at home or at the center, and are 2 other centers inside 14 miles if neither suits.

They detox from alcohol and opioids. Coming off alcohol without medical supervision can be dangerous, which is why it matters that this is one of 1 places near Princeton that do it.

They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Princeton are in it too, or only the one to one ones.

They treat teenagers as well as adults, which is the less common arrangement and worth confirming for Princeton specifically.

The nearest other center is 1.8 miles away, in Princeton, and there are 2 inside 14 miles.

They offer a program for clients with a mental health diagnosis as well, which not every center around Princeton does.

The first conversation is mostly questions about what is being used, how much, and for how long. A call outside office hours often reaches an answering service rather than an intake worker, which is worth knowing before judging a program by it. Ask for the name of whoever you spoke to, so the second call starts where the first ended.

Treatment often qualifies for job protected medical leave, though the rules depend on the employer's size and your length of service. Some professions have licensing bodies with their own reporting rules, and those are worth checking separately. Look at what your own employer offers before you tell anyone anything.
