About Discovery Psychotherapy Center
Located at East Frederick Place in Cedar Knolls, New Jersey, Discovery Psychotherapy Center helps individuals seeking substance use recovery with both individual and group therapy. Private counseling sessions allow clients to work one-on-one with a therapist to address personal struggles and build coping strategies. These sessions provide a safe space to talk openly without judgment. Group therapy is also available which allows clients to connect with others who understand what they’re going through. Being part of a supportive community helps create a sense of belonging and encourages shared healing.
Healing Trauma with EMDR
For those dealing with trauma, the facility offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy, or EMDR. This approach helps individuals process painful memories that may contribute to substance use. By lessening the emotional weight of past experiences, EMDR supports healing and makes recovery feel more manageable. I like that this approach can help individuals regain control over their emotions and their lives over time.
Using Art to Process Emotions
Some people process emotions better through creativity, and art therapy provides that opportunity. Clients can use painting, drawing, or other artistic forms to explore their thoughts and feelings. I think it’s neat that this approach allows for self-reflection and healing, especially for those who aren’t comfortable with traditional therapy.
If you’re covered by Aetna, Cigna, or Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield, you’re in luck — they accept those insurances. Discovery Psychotherapy Center will collaborate with you to create a treatment plan that best fits your specific needs all while making sure your privacy and confidentiality are handled with the highest level of care and professionalism.

Levels of Care
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.
Treatments
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.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
