Center for Prevention & Counseling

The Center for Prevention and Counseling in Newton, New Jersey, is dedicated to promoting health, hope, and recovery for individuals and families throughout the community. Their mission is to help people sustain healthy, addiction-free lifestyles through compassionate, evidence-based care that supports emotional wellness and personal growth. The Center provides both clinical and non-clinical services for adolescents and adults, with flexible payment options including Medicaid, county and state funding, and self-pay.

A key component of their counseling program is anger management support and education, available for adults seeking to better understand and control their emotions. This program helps participants recognize triggers, develop healthy coping strategies, and build communication and stress-management skills to prevent destructive behaviors. Whether court-ordered or self-referred, individuals benefit from a structured, supportive environment that promotes accountability and long-term behavioral change.

In addition to anger management, the Center offers comprehensive substance use and co-occurring disorder treatment, including alcohol and drug screening, early intervention, individual counseling, group therapy, and intensive outpatient programs. Specialized services for adolescents address issues such as vaping, e-cigarette use, and school-related substance concerns. Guided by a belief in every person’s inherent strengths and dignity, the Center’s professional team uses approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Family Systems Therapy to tailor care to each individual’s needs.

By fostering emotional resilience, personal responsibility, and community connection, the Center for Prevention and Counseling provides a path toward healing and lasting recovery for those facing challenges with anger, addiction, or mental health.
