Choosing the right treatment center can be paramount in one’s chance at recovery. While the treatment facility creates a foundation of tools needed for recovery, it is truly the individual, and not the addiction treatment center that determines the end result.

Located in the Atlanta, Georgia area, Southeast Addiction Center ensures each client receives the tools needed to live a life without addictive substances.From individual therapy to group therapy, to trauma-based therapy and 12-step support, our clients learn how to find their own strength as well as create a support system around them. The transition from addiction to sobriety can be hard, however, at our drug and alcohol rehabilitation program, we guide each client through the process – step by step.
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.
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.

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.

Lastly, we emphasize life skills that help each person build a foundation for sustainable, long-term recovery.
