Located in North Brunswick, New Jersey, Penn Medicine Princeton House Behavioral Health offers vital addiction treatment services as part of its broad spectrum of mental and behavioral health care. Recognizing that substance use disorders often coexist with mental health challenges, the programs here are designed to address both simultaneously, leading to more sustainable recovery.

The facility provides specialized care pathways tailored to individual needs, whether a person is experiencing a crisis or seeking support to maintain long-term recovery. Their commitment is to offer a supportive environment where patients can develop the necessary coping mechanisms and resilience to manage their disorders effectively and return to daily life with confidence.

Integrated Care for Lasting Recovery

  • Young Adult Program: Tailored support for younger individuals managing the unique stressors of school, career development, and relationships while seeking independence.
  • Inpatient Treatment (available through Princeton House): For those in crisis, 24/7 hospital-based care is provided for urgent stabilization and immediate therapeutic and medical support.
