About Legacy Healing Center New Jersey
Founders’ Vision
Legacy Healing Center was founded by Ben Fox and Marc Effron, two individuals whose own paths through recovery inspired a deeper vision for healing. What they created is not merely a treatment center, but a sanctuary where individuals feel genuinely seen, supported, and empowered to reclaim their lives.
Guided by their compassionate leadership, Legacy remains a place where hope is renewed, lives are restored, and lasting transformation takes root.
Their lived recovery experience shapes a culture built on accountability, empathy, family support, and the belief that treatment should honor the whole person, not just the diagnosis.

What Makes Legacy Healing NJ a Trusted Treatment Center?
Legacy Healing Center New Jersey provides evidence-based addiction and behavioral health treatment for adults and families seeking clinically guided, private, and personalized care. Our New Jersey team combines medical oversight, licensed clinical support, holistic therapies, and compassionate admissions guidance so each client can take the next step with dignity.
Legacy Healing Center New Jersey is built for people who need more than a standard treatment setting. We serve adults and families across New Jersey and the tri-state area who are looking for personalized addiction treatment, co-occurring mental health support, and a private environment where recovery can begin with structure and respect.
Care is guided by evidence-based therapies, individualized treatment planning, holistic wellness support, and admissions specialists who help families understand options without pressure. When clinically appropriate, our team can help clients move quickly from the first confidential call to the right level of care.
Medical Leadership and Licensed Clinical Care
Legacy Healing NJ’s clinical reputation is supported by experienced medical and behavioral health professionals. Dr. Ash Bhatt, M.D., M.R.O., FASAM, Chief Medical Officer, brings extensive addiction medicine and psychiatry experience to the organization’s clinical standards. His background includes addiction medicine, psychiatry, preventive medicine, brain injury medicine, and complex co-occurring condition care.
Clients also receive support from licensed and credentialed professionals across therapy, psychiatric care, case management, and recovery support. This multidisciplinary model helps address substance use, mental health symptoms, family dynamics, relapse prevention, and long-term stability in one coordinated care plan.
Evidence-Based Treatment With Whole-Person Support
Addiction treatment works best when it addresses the medical, emotional, behavioral, and relational factors that influence recovery. Legacy Healing NJ incorporates evidence-based therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, relapse prevention planning, family support, and holistic wellness practices.
The goal is not to promise a specific outcome. It is to create a safe, structured environment where each client can build practical recovery skills, strengthen support systems, and receive care that reflects their needs.
Private Support for Adults and Families in New Jersey
Legacy Healing NJ supports adults, professionals, families, and individuals navigating co-occurring addiction and mental health concerns. Many clients come to us because they want clinical depth, discretion, and a supportive setting that respects the sensitive nature of treatment.
Conversations with our admissions team are confidential. The team can help families understand treatment options, discuss clinical fit, and review insurance benefits without requiring public disclosure of private health information.
Designed for Healing, Built for You
Our New Jersey rehab facilities are designed to feel welcoming, not clinical, because comfort, safety, and dignity matter. Clients have access to thoughtfully designed spaces for therapy, wellness, fitness, and reflection.
Whether someone lives in New Jersey or travels from another area, Legacy Healing NJ offers the care, community, and structure needed to begin again. Sustainable recovery requires more than abstinence; it requires support for the life a person is working to rebuild.
Recovery Starts with a Conversation
If you are considering treatment for yourself or someone you love, Legacy Healing NJ can help you understand the next step. Call our admissions team, learn more about our approach, or verify insurance coverage through a confidential process.
