Wayne Counseling and Family Services

They provide outpatient, which is the whole of what this address in Wayne is set up for.

They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Paterson is the nearest place that does it, 4.5 miles away.

They do not prescribe medication. For opioid use that is worth knowing before you choose, because medication changes what the first weeks look like, and Wayne has 8 other centers.

Wayne has 15 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them 2.7 miles away in Pompton Plains.

What you take comes with you, in the original labeled containers, and is reviewed on arrival. Any medication you were prescribed by someone else is still their decision until a prescriber at the program takes it over. Keep your own prescriber in the loop rather than letting the handover happen by itself.

The levels run from a weekly appointment up to a residential bed, with two useful steps in between. Outpatient care is a fraction of the cost and is the level most people are treated at. Ask what the step down from residential care looks like at that center.

It is common, programs are built expecting it, and it is not a reason to delay. A different level of care is often the right response rather than a repeat of the same program. Ask what they do differently for somebody who has been through a program before.
