Meet the Team Redefining Mental Health Care

Ikon Recovery is a passion-driven recovery center I’ve been developing over the course of several years. It was inspired by my own recovery journey and what I found lacking in the typical program.

My personal experiences and encounters with the challenges of addiction have shaped my commitment to building a recovery program that goes beyond conventional approaches. One that goes beyond the typical “must fit in this box” methods at the average treatment center.

One that helps as many people as possible.

I have a unique vision for Ikon Recovery that creates a memorable experience you can appreciate and cherish. With my background in Social Science and my experience leading a 130+ person team in my family business, community-building is in my DNA.

I know that what my team and I have designed will help many alcohol and substance use disorder sufferers long after formal treatment has ended.

We’re not here to pressure you into doing it “our way” but we are here to guide you. For your own health and safety, your struggle with addiction has to be addressed – but you don’t have to dread the process.

At Ikon, we will enjoy the recovery process together. We will embark on a journey that allows you to shed the weight of past burdens, nurturing a profound transformation within. Welcome to Ikon Recovery. Let’s pursue greatness together

I’m a MA, LAC at Ikon Recovery Center.
I received my undergraduate degree from Fairleigh Dickinson University in Forensic Psychology and Criminal Law. I recently obtained my Master’s from Seton Hall University in MA/Ed.S in Professional Counseling. I recently passed the NCE Exam to become a certified LAC.

After completing my internships with a focus on mental health and substance use related, I chose to continue my passion and work on helping people heal from substance use disorder after graduation.

In my free time, I enjoy doing crossfit and pilates at least five times a week. And of course, long walks with my dog.

I believe that anyone struggling with substance abuse or mental health deserves a safe place to heal, grow, and find the real version of themselves. I’m here to walk alongside our clients and create a safe place, one without judgment or suffering. My hope is that each and every one of our clients feels seen, heard, and encouraged every step of the way on their recovery journey at Ikon.

Robert Geruldsen is our Director of Admissions. His primary focus is to assist all clients at Ikon in their moment of greatest need: the moment they realize they need help and start to get treatment.

He started off as a behavioral health technician working face to face with clients, taking them to 12-step meetings, running groups and strived to be an example of hope and positivity. He then moved into Admissions where he would answer calls to those seeking treatment for themselves or a loved one.

As our Director of Admissions, his knowledge and understanding of treatment along with personal experience is the driving force which motivates him to help others. Exhibiting compassion, empathy and understanding to everyone who calls in need of assistance, ensuring they are met with the qualities needed for them to feel safe in taking the next step to changing their lives.

His motto is “Speak with others as if it’s you on the other side.” Robert’s hope is that your experience speaking with him can be the foundation of a life-changing experience. He tries every day to “speak with others as if it’s you on the other side.”

Robert knows that once you take that first step, the possibilities of a life lived in recovery are well and truly. endless.
