Elements Behavioral Health acquires Park Bench Group Counseling

Elements Behavioral Health, a leading nationwide provider of addiction and mental health treatment programs, announced today that it has acquired Park Bench Group Counseling, located in Southeastern New Jersey.

Founded in 2006 by two therapists experienced in addiction treatment, Park Bench is a family-oriented substance abuse treatment program that provides day treatment/partial care and intensive outpatient services.

Park Bench has a strong clinical team and client-centered staff. Its day treatment/partial care includes psychiatric evaluation and treatment, individual and group counseling, life skills training, and family counseling. Continuing client support and treatment is offered through Park Bench's intensive outpatient program and individualized aftercare program.

"My partner Randi Massey and I chose Elements because of its commitment to retaining the culture and identity of our program," said Dr. Robin Barnett, CEO of Park Bench. "We are impressed by what they've brought to other treatment centers in their network in terms of clinical programming, support and other resources, and believe that we are doing what's best for the Park Bench team."

"We are pleased to welcome Park Bench into the Elements family of treatment centers," said Dr. David Sack, CEO of Elements Behavioral Health. "Robin and Randi have created a comprehensive and highly effective clinical program. We look forward to supporting the Park Bench team as it continues to serve clients and their families."
