Recognizing When to Seek Behavioral Health Support
Behavioral health support isn’t reserved for severe circumstances. People reach out for help with anxiety, depression, stress, marital conflict, and the lasting effects of trauma. If these experiences are affecting your ability to function at home or work, seeking professional guidance can be a constructive step.
Experiencing trauma that continues to interfere with your well-being is a valid reason to explore treatment. Our outpatient program addresses these concerns across New Jersey, and telehealth services let you begin from home, making that first conversation easier.
Recognizing these signs is the start. The next section explains how care is organized so you can connect with the right resources.
What Our Behavioral Health Programs Include
TAYLOR CARE provides an array of behavioral health programs. Our Partial Care program offers weekday therapeutic support for clinical stabilization and skill building. Our Outpatient Mental Health services offer flexible scheduling while maintaining progress.
We provide both Intensive Outpatient and Outpatient treatment for Substance Use Disorders. We integrate MAT in our case management services along with coordination of other community resources. We provide co-occurring mental health and substance use treatment as person centered care. Our Tuckerton clinic serves residents of Ocean and Burlington counties and our Galloway and Berlin Clinics serve the South Jersey region.
Partnerships with Northbrook and Buttonwood Behavioral Health Hospitals enable smooth transitions between inpatient and outpatient levels, ensuring continuity of care, and our case management team links clients with community resources, employment support, and housing assistance. We provide a therapeutic environment that fosters a safe atmosphere of hope and value throughout the recovery journey.
We understand that each client is at a different point in their journey of healing and recovery. Our goal is to align the services that we provide to help you reach your goal for healing and recovery.
Choosing the Right Treatment Option
Choices among outpatient programs depend on the individual in terms of their clinical needs, level of daily functioning, personal goals, and other considerations. Clinical recommendations are made by the treatment team after consideration of all aspects related to the individual and the support system.
We offer a continuum that allows seamless transitions between Partial Care, Intensive Outpatient, and standard outpatient counseling. We provide free transportation across our seven-county South Jersey service area. Intake assessments are typically scheduled within 24 hours of referral receipt, with same-day options available.
For those facing co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, our integrated dual diagnosis approach employs evidence-based practices including CBT and DBT within a single treatment plan. Psychiatric evaluations, medication monitoring, and individual, group, and family therapy are also part of the treatment plan.
These programs are accessible at our clinic locations in Tuckerton, in Berlin, and in Galloway.
Serving South Jersey: Our Clinic Locations and Coverage
We make it simple to access coordinated care once a treatment approach has been chosen by operating three clinic locations across South Jersey.
Our Tuckerton clinic serves residents of Ocean County and Burlington County with all levels of mental health and substance use programming, from Partial Care to outpatient services, including medication-assisted treatment and support for co-occurring disorders. We coordinate directly with Northbrook Behavioral Health Hospital and Buttonwood Behavioral Health Hospital to ensure seamless transitions between inpatient and outpatient care.
In Galloway, we serve Atlantic County, Cape May County and Cumberland County with rapid intake protocols, often scheduling clinical intakes within 24 hours of referral.
The Berlin location provides transportation to clients across our seven-county service area—Camden County, Gloucester County, Burlington County, Ocean County, Atlantic County, Cape May County, and Cumberland County.
Once a location has been selected, the next step is understanding how to finance care.
Understanding Costs and Insurance Coverage
We accept New Jersey Medicaid, private pay and most commercial health plans across South Jersey. Our Tuckerton, Berlin and Galloway clinics accept these payment types, and our telehealth services extend these options to all of New Jersey.
New Jersey’s mental health parity law states that health insurance plans must cover biologically-based mental illnesses (e.g. schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder) the same way they would cover general medical conditions. As a result, health plans cannot impose any more restrictive financial obligations on members seeking treatment for mental illness compared to those seeking treatment for a physical illness.
Prior to initiating treatment, we verify what your financial responsibility would be and expedite the intake process. This helps us ensure that you’re aware of your out of pocket costs and set expectations around your financial responsibility.
How Quickly Can You Get Into Treatment?
At Taylor Care, we typically schedule intakes within 24 hours of receiving a referral and can provide same-day intake when clinically appropriate. The assessment process is efficient, so you can start the process as quickly as possible. We have free transportation services to help remove a common barrier to care, and to get you to our programs as quickly as possible. We are responsive in an effort to support your long-term stability.
Our Commitment to Quality and Continuity of Care
We’ve partnered with Northbrook and Buttonwood Behavioral Health Hospitals to smoothen transitions from inpatient to outpatient care. Using a person-centered, multidisciplinary approach, along with transportation assistance, we reduce fragmentation and keep patients consistently connected.
