About Guardian Recovery - Princeton Detox & Recovery Center
As part of the Guardian Recovery network, Princeton Detox & Recovery Center combines the resources, clinical expertise, and proven treatment practices of a national behavioral healthcare organization with the personalized care of a local treatment center. They help clients find freedom from addiction beginning with medically supervised withdrawal and followed by live-in treatment to address the emotional, behavioral, and psychological factors that contribute to substance use.
Build a Strong Foundation for Long-Term Recovery
Guardian’s team takes time to learn each client’s story, challenges, and needs so they can build a truly supportive treatment path. Care begins with medically supervised detox, where comfort and steady support help the body and mind begin healing. After detox, clients move into the residential program to break patterns and build new skills. Days are structured and purposeful, typically including: morning meditation or exercise, group therapy, individual counseling sessions, educational workshops, recreational therapy, process groups, evening activities, and personal reflection time.
Experience a Calm, Welcoming Environment
Guardian’s Princeton facility offers a home-style, non-hospital setting. Clients typically share a room with 1-3 other residents, each room furnished with plush beds, cozy amenities, and peaceful views of nature. The facility is a welcoming place to recharge with serene lounge spaces, an outdoor patio, and a modern cafe serving nutritious, chef-prepared meals three times daily, plus snacks.
Transition Seamlessly into Ongoing Recovery
Princeton Detox & Recovery Center develops a comprehensive continuing care plan that includes outpatient therapy, support groups, sober living recommendations, and community resources. Clients can continue care through Guardian's outpatient programs without changing providers or losing the relationships built with their care team. An active alumni program offers events, support groups, and community connections that help clients stay engaged in recovery for years to come.
