Comprehensive Addiction Recovery at Athens Wellness Center

Located in the heart of Athens, Georgia, the Athens Wellness Center provides a dedicated and personalized approach to overcoming substance use disorder. We recognize that addiction is a complex disease requiring holistic care that addresses both the physical dependence and the underlying mental and emotional factors. Our mission is to equip individuals with the necessary tools for sustainable sobriety, fostering a life characterized by health, purpose, and strong community connections. We believe in treating each client as a whole person, designing individualized care plans that maximize the chance for long-term success.

Our Multidisciplinary Approach to Treatment

Recovery is a journey, not a destination, and our program structure reflects this reality. We offer a continuum of care, ensuring clients receive the appropriate level of support as they progress. This includes medically supervised detoxification, residential treatment, intensive outpatient programs (IOP), and essential aftercare planning. Our team is comprised of licensed therapists, medical doctors, psychiatrists, and addiction specialists, all working collaboratively to provide integrated care.

Core Therapeutic Modalities

Our treatment methodology integrates evidence-based practices with experiential therapies to promote profound healing. Clients participate in a diverse range of therapeutic sessions designed to build coping skills, process trauma, and improve emotional regulation. Key components of our program include:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills training
  • Individual and Group Counseling
  • Family Therapy and Educational Sessions
  • Trauma-Informed Care
  • Relapse Prevention Planning

Building a Foundation for Long-Term Sobriety

A crucial element of recovery involves reintegration into a healthy lifestyle. Beyond core therapy, the Athens Wellness Center emphasizes life skills development, nutritional guidance, and physical wellness. We help clients establish healthy routines and discover constructive ways to manage stress and leisure time without reliance on substances. Our dedicated aftercare program focuses heavily on connecting clients with local resources and support groups to maintain accountability and support networks long after formal treatment concludes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What types of insurance do you accept?

We work with most major insurance providers. We recommend contacting our admissions team directly with your policy information so we can verify coverage and discuss any potential out-of-pocket costs.

How long does the typical residential program last?

The length of stay varies based on individual needs and clinical recommendations, generally ranging from 30 to 90 days. The goal is to ensure adequate stabilization and skill-building before transitioning to a lower level of care.

Do you offer dual diagnosis treatment?

Yes. Many individuals struggling with addiction also have co-occurring mental health disorders (dual diagnosis). Our clinical team is fully trained to treat both conditions simultaneously for more effective long-term recovery outcomes.
