Options Counseling Center 9 West Broadway, Paterson, NJ 07505

"I came here for about about year. The staff has always met me with nothing but positivity and support. Chris was my councilor and even after graduating I still call him to check in and talk because he is truly helpful and cares about his clients. After being through several cookie cutter programs and a mommy and me the was shut down by the state, it’s nice to see a program that actually cares about their clients. They’re willing work with and connect with people as individuals, not just addicts."

"The help and encouragement I received from the staff was real. They want you to succeed, and I did. I graduated today, and for the first time in a very long time, I felt motivated to do the right thing. Thank you Marcus!! It takes very special people to do this kind of work and I'm very grateful to all the staff!!!"

"The administration assistant is excellent if I had a business I would want her to be the first person people meet. The young lady that takes the insurance paper work excellent really know how to handle herself. The Dr I seen on the computer excellent. But there were two people that I encountered that I feel make the company look bad and truly made me feel like I did not want to come back. And that is the guy that took the urine and sandy or Sandra not sure of her name but she was not pleasant at all. And it is a shame because that place have very good potential."

"This place is a joke to me seriously. I never had met such ignorant people. I'm 9 months pregnant I been clean for 4 years and they are going to tell me I am using gabapentin. Are you freaking serious. Then I suggest something must have went wrong and the lady is gonna call me a liar and say the drug test don't lie... Like umm sweet heart yes it does cause I sure did not use no gabapentin. They are quick to look at everyone as a liar or a drug abuser and wonder why people relapse. What's the point of being clean if your accused of using a drug you never even used before?? Lucky I am clean for myself and not just out of force cause being treated like that will sure cause a relapse on someone."
