Rethinking the Role of Traditional Recovery Programs For years, Starting Point has primarily served as a conduit for channeling donations and clients into its system—often labeling individuals for life without providing a genuine path toward recovery. This mirrors a troubling pattern seen in parts of the medical industry, where the focus is less on healing and more on sustaining business operations. After working with Vince D. for over three decades, it’s become evident that the organization’s true priority has been extracting value from clients—whether through their time, financial contributions, or billable services. As a nonprofit, conversations tend to center around what's considered the "standard of care," a framework that may protect from liability but falls short of fostering real, individualized growth. Much like hospital systems that pressure doctors to bill every possible insurance code to appease accountants—or risk termination—this model emphasizes financial survival over human transformation. Vince, now more than 20 years past his expected retirement, seems more invested in building intergenerational wealth than in helping clients reach sustainable healing or independence. Your well-being often becomes secondary to what you can offer the organization. There Are Alternatives—And They're Empowering You have the power to pursue meaningful, self-directed growth. Explore AI-powered therapy platforms and free online tools designed to build emotional resilience, self-discipline, and life skills. These resources often deliver what traditional models fail to: true empowerment and lasting change. For motivation and mindset development, turn to the timeless teachings of Jim Rohn—available for free on YouTube. He was the mentor behind Tony Robbins’ early success, offering foundational insights without the inflated costs and marketing hype. Consider reading or watching "The Pleasure Trap" by Dr. Doug Lisle, which explores the psychology of behavior change and the hidden forces shaping your decisions. It’s a must-read for anyone seeking long-term transformation. If you're currently under psychiatric care, be informed: many psychiatric medications are known to blunt emotional range and clarity—sometimes referred to as a "chemical lobotomy." Always weigh the risks and benefits carefully and seek second opinions when needed. Lastly, examine how nutrition impacts both mental and physical health. Documentaries like "The Game Changers" highlight the benefits of a plant-based diet and its potential to enhance energy, mood, and overall well-being. The path to recovery doesn't need to be paved with dependency. You deserve tools, not just treatment—growth, not just management.

Angela Baxter is the single greatest asset this facility has on hand. She is the most personable, down to Earth, and overall amazing therapist I've ever had the pleasure of working with, and I've been in and out of therapy like people are in and out of their local Wawa (s). She has a unique ability to put her clients at ease with humor. She utilizes laughter and good vibes to ensure that everyone she works with feels safe and at home. Her talents know no bounds. Have you ever seen her type? Roadrunner, take note 📝 I cannot say enough good about this saintly woman. Before I worked with her, I was lost. After I worked with Angela Baxter, I was found. Go to this place just for her alone. - Ryan Hosey I'm proud to say I'm a former client of Mrs. Baxter's.

Over the years, beginning around 2012, I utilized various counseling and group activity services here. The Starting Point is outstanding and a powerful place of HEALING.

Colleen is one of the best counselors at Solstice. She always makes everyone in group feel super comfortable and always finds a way to make it fun and interesting.

I feel as though Solstice is an extremely therapeutic environment. It helps me with my mental illness, putting my life into perspective and to mature and grow. I have been in counseling since I was 12 years old only to find out that I grew old and never grew up. Solstice has begun the process to help me grow up. Thank you to the whole Solstice team, especially my counselor Morgan.

Great place with great support for Alcohol and Drug Counseling. It’s also a Methadone Dosage clinic.

I've been to Jefferson's ER in Cherry Hill, NJ several times and the doctors and nurses provided me with excellent care and attention.

I went to the ER on 8/10/25. I was having pains in my stomach, I was attending to quickly, just had to wait awhile for a bed in triad. I had great nurse Martha. Due to my urine test, it was determined to go for a CT scan. More waiting but I was relaxed. I had a very nice woman named Maria,who transported me to the CT scan area, and then we started chatting and learned that we are Puerto Rican and started talking about the island. Had the wait for the results and to get some med, finally got released after 5 hours in the ER. I went in for one issue, and came out with finding about health issues that I will follow up. Thanks 🙏🏾 to the staff ⚕️ at the Emergency Room for talking care of me.
