One of reality TV’s most recognizable stars is about to put his roots down in the Charlotte area next week. Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino is about to open his first North Carolina addiction recovery center in Matthews.
Sorrentino will attend the ribbon-cutting and grand opening of his new Archangel Centers on Friday, July 24. The new facility is located on Siskey Parkway near the intersection of McKee and Weddington roads.
The Matthews location will be the first Archangel Centers facility in North Carolina. The original center opened in Tinton Falls, New Jersey.
Sorrentino became a household name on MTV’s Jersey Shore, which aired from 2009 to 2012 and starred cast members including Paul “Pauly D” DelVecchio, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, and Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola.
After achieving more than 10 years of sobriety, Sorrentino and his wife, Lauren, launched Archangel Centers to help people overcome addiction through evidence-based treatment.
The Matthews center will offer 30 to 60 days of structured care, including daily therapy, group counseling, and outpatient services to help patients transition back to everyday life.
The facility will treat alcohol addiction, opioid and heroin addiction, stimulant addiction, prescription drug dependence, benzodiazepine addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and other co-occurring mental health disorders.
The opening brings another behavioral health resource to the Charlotte region while marking a major expansion for Sorrentino’s recovery organization.
