At Skywood, we are deeply invested in helping you regain your health. Our programming approach to recovery is designed with that in mind, from individual and group therapy to adventure therapy, art therapy and yoga. Each of these activities builds on the others to get to the root causes of addiction, introduce healthy new habits, address any co-occurring mental health issues and provide the mental and physical space you need in order to heal. We also provide access to regular 12-Step meetings and peer support groups. What we do at Skywood is different for several reasons. First, we treat addiction and mental health at the same time in a highly integrated way, looking to restore a person’s physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being. Second, we focus on resolving trauma, underlying issues and deep-rooted emotional pain that often causes substance abuse in the first place. Lastly, we emphasize life skills that help each person build a foundation for sustainable, long-term recovery.
Addiction is a disease that no one should have to deal with alone. It is imperative that citizens of a city or county have access to top quality addiction treatment services. People from all walks of life can be susceptible to developing a substance use disorder in response to trauma they have endured, or lifestyle circumstances begetting maladaptive coping mechanisms.When a person is in the grips of addiction, they can become isolated and unable to see their condition for what it is—an illness that can be managed.Whether you are in Nashville or in the greater Nashville area such as Brentwood, Franklin, Hendersonville, etc, at Southeast Addiction, our outpatient addiction treatment programs offer something for individuals of all levels of commitment.
