The Discovery Institute for Addictive Disorders

The Basics

The Discovery Institute for Addictive Disorders was originally founded in 1970 as a state-operated rehab and has since evolved into a private, non-profit program which provides a variety of individualized treatment tracks. Located in the township of Marlboro, New Jersey, the substance abuse treatment program at DI has both an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) and a basic outpatient track, both placing an emphasis on relapse prevention using evidence-based treatment methods.

Treatment and Staff

The IOP at DI consists of nine hours of treatment per week while the basic outpatient program requires clients to attend only one- to two-hours of treatment per week. Treatment is all highly individualized to meet the unique needs of each client.

There are psycho-educational lectures about the disease of addiction and relapse prevention. There is also CBT-based individual and group therapy as well as family counseling sessions for those who wish to incorporate their loved ones in their recovery. Both tracks strongly encourage involvement with the 12-steps and clients are connected with community groups and meetings.

The staff at DI consists of LPCs, LADCs, CADCs and MFTs.

Extras

In addition to the outpatient programs, DI also offers both short- and long-term residential treatment programs as well as detox services and a halfway house for men, all with an emphasis on the 12-steps.

DI also provides services and special programming for those clients who are court mandated to receive treatment due to a DUI offense. The program shares resources with the Intoxicated Drivers Resource Center. All clients also receive aftercare arrangements and aid for transitioning back into everyday life.

In Summary

The outpatient program at the Discovery Institute offers two tracks with varying intensities for individuals seeking substance abuse treatment that is flexible and affordable. With a continuum of care beginning with detox, short and long term residential treatment then outpatient options and aftercare, clients have the option of stepping down from one track to another. All treatment integrates the 12-steps to provide a community of support for lasting recovery and sobriety.
