About Adult Family Health Services
Adult Family Health Services is a behavioral health and wellness center that can be found in close proximity to the Clifton Town Hall in Clifton, New Jersey. At AFHS, they provide access to a wide variety of mental and behavioral health treatments and services to men and women aged 18 and older. These services include intensive outpatient and standard outpatient services for people struggling with substance use disorders.
Prioritizing Necessary Help and Accessibility
Some of their services, such as the mental health partial care program, give assistance beyond merely providing therapy and help with medication management. They offer transportation and nutritional assistance as well, with the goal of helping individuals transition back to living outside of a residential care program.
This theme of giving a little extra help runs through all of AFHS’s services, and they also keep these accessible by accepting Medicaid, Medicare and most commercial insurance plans.
Comprehensive SUD Treatment and Support
Their outpatient programs for SUDs and alcohol addiction take a holistic view of all the factors that may have contributed to the initial substance use. In their individual sessions, they construct a personalized care plan that considers social pressures, genetic predispositions, environmental stressors and your life since the substance use started.
They offer individual and group counseling to help you address each contributing factor and can provide medication assisted treatment to those who face difficult withdrawals from certain substances. As a center that handles mental and behavioral health issues beyond addictions, they can also treat co-occurring issues such as anxiety and depression. Their mental health and substance treatment services are described as “excellent” by past clients.

I looked up mental health facilities for my friend' relative with Major depression and referred her here. They were excellent and really helped her. She tried Spravato, a new therapy and it worked immediately. I highly recommend this facility since they actually are PRO offering alternative & New treatments.

Other Forms of Payment
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
A medical detox is the safest way to wean your body off addictive substances. When you become physically dependent on alcohol or drugs, quitting abruptly can cause a host of challenging and uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms. In medically assisted detox, a team of medical professionals will be on hand to monitor any symptoms, to provide medication if possible, and to help keep you as safe and as comfortable as possible throughout this process.
Treatments
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.
Programs
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
Clinical Services
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
During individual therapy for drug addiction, patients receive a customized and tailored approach to understanding their unique circumstances and providing them with targeted interventions. These include coping skills, relapse prevention plans, and developing resilience, all of which are essential for long term recovery.
