Getting started
Admissions: Start Treatment in NJ
Getting into treatment at Archangel Centers takes five steps. Most people are placed within 24 to 48 hours of their first call.
The process
How admissions works, step by step
We designed our intake process to remove as many barriers as possible. You should not have to fight your way into treatment. From the first call to the first session, our team handles the details so you can focus on the one thing that matters: getting well.
Call our admissions line
Reach us any time of day or night at (888) 464-2144. A real admissions specialist, not an automated system, will answer. There is no obligation, no pressure, and everything you share is completely confidential.
Free clinical assessment
Your specialist conducts a brief clinical interview by phone. We ask about your history with substance use, current situation, and goals for treatment. This takes about 20 to 30 minutes and helps us recommend the right level of care for you.
Insurance verification
We contact your insurer directly to verify your benefits and coverage. Most major commercial plans are accepted, including Aetna, Cigna, Optum, Anthem, Humana, Magellan, and BCBS. You will know your coverage before you commit to anything.
Personalized care plan
Your clinical team builds an individualized treatment plan based on your assessment. Whether you are starting in partial care (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), or a different level, the plan is built around your schedule, history, and goals.
Your first day
You arrive at our Tinton Falls campus at 44 Apple St and meet your primary therapist and care team. We walk you through the space, introduce you to the clinical group, and begin treatment on day one. No waiting, no uncertainty.
What to bring
Preparing for your first day
Insurance card
We will work with your insurer, but having your card speeds the verification.
Photo ID
A state-issued ID or driver's license is all you need.
Medication list
Bring a list of any current prescriptions so our clinical team can review them.
Comfortable clothing
Dress for a full day of group and individual sessions.
Emergency contacts
The name and number of one trusted person we can reach if needed.
An open mind
That is truly all that is required. Everything else we will figure out together.
Insurance
Most major plans are accepted
We work with most major commercial insurance carriers, including Aetna, Cigna, Optum, Anthem, Humana, Magellan, and Blue Cross Blue Shield. Our admissions team contacts your insurer directly to determine your deductible, co-pay, and authorization requirements before your first session.
You can also submit your insurance information through our insurance verification form and receive a response within minutes.
