In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, The Center for Great Expectations has increased access to mental health and recovery services in two of its programs.

With the support of the State of New Jersey, S.T.A.R.T. (Supportive, Trauma-Attuned, Attachment-Based, Recovery & Treatment) has expanded and now offers free teletherapy, teledoulas and virtual peer recovery coaching for pregnant and postpartum persons, striving to overcome use of alcohol and other substances.

Licensed clinicians offer counseling tailored to the needs of mothers in recovery. Certified doulas provide birth education, support at the hospital, and honor the transition to motherhood as a rite of passage. Peer recovery specialists bring the expertise and perspective of someone who has reclaimed their life and gained freedom through sobriety. Complimentary services include an on-staff APN for initiation and maintenance of pharmacotherapy, toxicology screening and therapeutic groups via telehealth to provide connection with other mothers in recovery.

Services are provided for up to 18 months in Essex, Hunterdon, Western Hudson, Middlesex, Morris, Somerset and Union counties. To schedule your S.T.A.R.T. consultation, call 732-247-7003, ext. 422. Text 732-434-8577 or email cflynn@cge-nj.org.
