Kenneth Peters Center for Recovery
About Kenneth Peters Center for Recovery
Kenneth Peters Center for Recovery (KPC) in Hauppauge is a licensed outpatient addiction and mental health treatment provider serving Long Island and Queens. The center offers intensive outpatient programs (IOP), individual and group therapy, medication assisted treatment and specialized tracks for young adults, gambling disorder and early intervention. KPC takes a holistic, reality-based approach designed to fit recovery around work, school and family commitments, helping clients build sustainable change without stepping away from their lives.
Intensive Outpatient Treatment with a Three Phase Step Down Model
KPC has pioneered IOP as an alternative to inpatient care and remains at the forefront of Long Island’s addiction treatment network. The center’s signature three-phase program starts with intensive sessions and gradually steps down in frequency as recovery stabilizes, supporting clients through every stage of healing.
Treatment integrates evidence based modalities including CBT, motivational approaches, family interventions, relapse prevention and 12 step support. Sessions combine individual therapy, structured group work like the Men’s Feelings Group, and family involvement to address underlying issues and build practical coping skills. Clients also benefit from monthly “Dr. Dewey Presents” educational sessions covering the neuroscience of addiction and recovery.
Specialized Programs for Young Adults and Early Intervention
KPC offers a dedicated Young Adult Program for ages 18 to 26, mirroring the three-phase model with required family participation. The center also provides “Positively Negative,” an 18-hour interactive early intervention program for DOT and DWI clients who do not meet criteria for abuse or dependence, alongside specialized treatment for gambling disorder and LGBTQ-specific programming.
Getting Started at KPC Hauppauge
KPC serves Nassau, Suffolk and Queens counties from its Hauppauge office on Motor Parkway, with appointments typically available same-day or within 24 hours. The center is licensed by the NYS Office of Addiction Supports and Services.
KPC accepts many major commercial insurance plans, Medicare, Medicaid, military insurance and private pay, with coverage options continually expanding.
