Intensive Outpatient (IOP) Treatment in Princeton Junction, NJ
We’re proud to announce that Summit Behavioral Health is now empowered by BriteLife Recovery. Our program is based on the fundamental belief that no single treatment philosophy or approach is best for everyone. Our experienced staff collaboratively create each client’s treatment plan to reflect their unique needs and empower them to succeed.
Summit Behavioral Health has been a pioneer in offering intensive outpatient addiction treatment for over ten years. Now, we’re excited to partner with BriteLife Recovery to elevate our innovative work and expand our services.
Core Components of Summit Behavioral Health
Treatment We Offer
After an initial assessment, individuals enter treatment at a level of care that is appropriate to their needs and then step up to more intense treatment or down to less intense treatment as needed.
Intensive Outpatient (IOP)
Intensive Outpatient Programming is designed for clients who lead active lives but need to dedicate time to building healthy coping skills, identifying and learning new habits and routines, all while maintaining lives at home and work.
General Outpatient (GOP)
This typically involves between 1 to 3 sessions per week — including individual, group, and family counseling — for continued support upon completing a higher level of care.
Summit Behavioral Health provides intensive outpatient services in Princeton Junction, New Jersey, while BriteLife Recovery offers detox and residential treatment at locations in South Carolina, New York, and Pennsylvania. Our partnership allows clients to move seamlessly through the continuum of care with a cohesive, compassionate, and collaborative treatment approach.

Family and Alumni Support
BALM Family Program
BALM stands for “Be A Loving Mirror.” It is free to the family members of our clients. It is a structured family-recovery education and coaching program designed specifically for families of people with substance use disorders.
The core idea is to support the family (not only the person using substances) so that the family becomes a healthier, more stable unit, and in turn, improving the likelihood that the person engages in long-term recovery.
Alumni Programming
We know how important long-term support and engagement are for long-term recovery. Summit Behavioral Health provides alumni support and programming for all clients.
Removing Barriers to Care
Our mission is to remove any barriers standing in the way of you or your loved one getting the help you need.
We understand that transportation can be a barrier for some individuals getting to treatment. We offer transportation services, if necessary.
We also offer flexible scheduling, with day and evening programming, to accommodate your particular needs in early recovery.
