Why Valley Spring Exists

"Our mission is to deliver the best substance use and mental health treatment in the Tri-State area, redefining traditional treatment approaches to provide real, personalized solutions that meet the unique needs of every patient."

We are committed to empowering individuals who feel trapped in addiction or mental health challenges, offering them and their families a pathway to change. Through a safe, supportive environment, innovative clinical staff, and individualized care, we help our patients break free from addiction, reclaim their purpose, and become healthy, thriving members of society.

Located at 830 Broadway in Norwood, NJ — just 20 minutes from the George Washington Bridge — Valley Spring provides outpatient treatment in a professional, discrete, and welcoming environment. We combine evidence-based therapies like CBT, DBT, and EMDR with whole-person programming that treats the mind, body, and spirit.

The Principles That Drive Everything We Do

Six values that guide every clinical decision, every patient interaction, and every staff member at Valley Spring.

01

Integrity First

We do the right thing no matter what. Every decision is guided by honesty, transparency, and a commitment to what is genuinely best for our patients.

02

Relentless Work Ethic

We work tirelessly to better our patients' lives. Recovery demands effort, and our team matches that effort every single day.

03

Service Over Self

We serve each other and our clients with humility and care. The patient's journey always comes before personal convenience.

04

Respect Always

We treat everyone with dignity and value every perspective. Addiction does not discriminate, and neither does our compassion.

05

Purpose-Driven Excellence

We work with intention and hold ourselves to a high standard. Every group session, every treatment plan, every interaction is purposeful.

06

Team Above Ego

Collaboration and unity guide our success. Our Wednesday treatment team meetings ensure the best therapist-client matching and cohesive care.
