What conditions do you treat at Positive Reset Eatontown?

We treat a full range of outpatient mental health conditions: anxiety disorders, depression (including treatment-resistant), bipolar disorder, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, postpartum depression and perinatal mood disorders, eating disorders, substance use disorders alongside mental health (dual diagnosis), and adjustment-related issues. We see adults, adolescents (13+), couples, and families. We do not provide inpatient or 24/7 crisis care.

Do I need therapy, medication, or both?

It depends on the condition and your preferences. Mild-to-moderate anxiety and depression often respond well to therapy alone. Severe depression, bipolar disorder, severe OCD, and ADHD typically require medication, sometimes alone but more often combined with therapy. Treatment-resistant depression may benefit from TMS. We make this recommendation after the first 1–2 sessions, and you always have the final say.

How long does treatment usually take?

For most outpatient mental health concerns, therapy runs 8–20 sessions over 3–6 months. Some people stay longer for ongoing support; others finish in fewer sessions. Medication is more variable — some people take an antidepressant for 6–12 months, others longer. We re-evaluate the plan every 90 days so you're not paying for sessions you don't need.

What therapy modalities do your clinicians use?

We use evidence-based modalities: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), Behavioral Activation, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples. Each clinician has primary modalities they're trained in — we match you to a clinician based on your concern and preferences.

How long until I can be seen?

Most new patients are seen within 7–14 days of their first call. Telehealth visits often have shorter wait times than in-person. If you're in crisis, call us — we triage same-week appointments for active safety concerns where appropriate, or refer you to crisis resources if our outpatient setting isn't the right level of care.

What should I do if I'm in crisis right now?

Call or text 988 — the national Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. It's free, available 24/7, and staffed by trained counselors. If you're in immediate danger, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room. Positive Reset Eatontown is an outpatient clinic — we don't provide 24/7 crisis services, but we'll see you within a week for follow-up care once you're safe.

Bipolar disorder is a treatable mood condition involving distinct periods of elevated mood (mania or hypomania) and depression, with stable functioning in between. About 2.8% of U.S. adults experience bipolar disorder in any given year, per National Institute of Mental Health data, and proper treatment substantially reduces relapse risk. The first-line treatments combine mood-stabilizing medication (lithium, lamotrigine, atypical antipsychotics) with therapy focused on identifying early warning signs and stabilizing routines. At Positive Reset Eatontown, we treat bipolar disorder with psychiatric medication management, evidence-based therapy, and care coordination with primary-care physicians and family members when appropriate. We accept NJ FamilyCare (Medicaid) and most major insurance. Bipolar disorder requires consistent treatment to maintain stability — we typically schedule medication-management visits every 4-6 weeks during stabilization and every 8-12 weeks once stable. If you're in crisis, call or text 988 — available 24/7.
