Clients/patients using, selling drugs in treatment. No counselors show up to run groups. Financial guy took my 1600.00, but they've sent multiple harassing/threatening letters, but CIGNA says they owe ME 200.00. Financial guy worthless, never answers phone, or returns calls/emails. DONT EVER GO TO Cornerstone! It's just a scam to rip you and your insurance co. off for as much money as they can get. Now they've turned me over to collections. I've been to treatment before, but would NEVER recommend this place to anyone.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Outpatient rehabs enable clients to receive care without leaving their home, workplace, and community. Clients typically receive intensive addiction counseling, including individual, group, and family therapy. Many programs promote clients' long-term sobriety through recovery-focused life skills training and ancillary services, such as peer coaching. Medication assisted treatment (MAT), including medication induction and maintenance, are common in outpatient care. Most facilities offer multiple levels of care to accommodate clients' evolving needs, including intensive outpatient (IOP) and standard outpatient programming.
inpatient iconInpatient
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.
partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program
A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is an intensive outpatient option for those with moderate to severe addictions, allowing you to return home at the end of the day. It can be an alternative to hospitalization or used as a step-down option. PHP treatment requires a minimum of 20 hours of treatment per week for an average of 90 days. Depending on your needs, PHP treatment includes relapse prevention, medication management, and behavioral therapy services. PHP treatment is often covered by providers.
24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care
At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
Before the recovery process can begin, the hazy fog of drugs and alcohol must be lifted. To do that, patients often need to go through a detoxification process to cleanse their systems of alcohol and/or drugs. The idea of “detox” can be terrifying to the addict or alcoholic who may have attempted to do so in the past, more often than not on their own. At Cornerstone of Recovery, the reality is this: Medical detox is a safe process monitored by health professionals designed to make patients as comfortable as possible before they move on to the next phase of treatment. Patients in the detox program at Cornerstone are monitored 24 hours a day by registered, licensed nurses and clinical staff with oversight from our physician, a specialist in addiction medicine, along with our in-house psychologist.

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

When your day-to-day life is taken over by drug use, this is known as substance use disorder. If you abruptly stop using your drug of choice, you experience withdrawal symptoms. To overcome this cycle, professional drug rehab in Tennessee is usually needed.

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
program-for-men thumbnail image
Program For Men
Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
seniors-program thumbnail image
Seniors Program
Nearly one million adults age 65 and older live with a substance use disorder. Treatment providers who specialize in senior care understand the social, psychological, and physical effects of aging and how they relate to recovery. They can help clients address particular challenges and risks they may face as they get older such as overdosing and medication interactions and dependencies.
hiv-aids-program thumbnail image
HIV/AIDS Program
HIV/AIDS programs support disease prevention and management in high-risk individuals in recovery. Individuals who engage in intravenous drug use and other addictive behaviors are at a higher risk of becoming infected with HIV. Rehab centers that specialize in treating this population typically have a high number of nurses, physicians, and psychiatrists on staff who can make sure both their medical and mental health needs are met.
lgbtq-program thumbnail image
LGBTQ Program
Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

EMDR is a therapeutic modality originally developed to help process trauma. In an EMDR session, a patient is prompted to undergo eye movements that mimic those of REM sleep. This is accomplished by watching a therapist's finger move back and forth across, or following a bar of light. The goal is repetitive sets of eye movements that help the brain reprocess memory, which can significantly reduce the intensity of remembered traumatic incidents. Associated memories can heal simultaneously, leaving patients significantly calmer, more stable, and more emotionally relaxed.

Many of their staff know firsthand how painful and challenging it can be for families to face addiction. It's a disease that can affect an entire family. One of the most important aspects of recovery is rebuilding those bonds and relationships. Cornerstone of Recovery will provide the patient with educational and support programs that will improve those relationships and help them and their family better understand the disease.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

I was tricked ! Had all my paperwork to go to cornerstone. They accepted me at cornerstone. They took my insurance. They stole my prescription medication. They sent me to stepping stone, never even heard of this place. They don't take anything seriously besides trying to get high. I figured that all out in 2 hrs of being dropped off I left as soon as I figured this out. If u want ur recovery being taken seriously DO NOT GO THERE! I promise u will regret wasting time on these people.

Desiree, Amy, Amber, & Linda are phenomenal. Amy and Desiree give the BEST advice. Amber is so supportive and sweet, and Linda is all the tough love u need. These women are the absolute best and made my experience so much better than I could've ever imagined. I AMA on the 24th of Dec. However if you come here for the right reasons and leave the rest alone, you will learn A TON to help you on your journey to recovery. I can't say I'm not still struggling. But this was one step ahead for me in the right direction. One day at a time. Let go and let god. Thank you sstr!!

Really have to give a star when this place is a JOKE!!! My mom was just patient at the Knoxville location. She blacked out a was rushed to Blount memorial hospital where she still at.she was blue where she laid there without help no oxygen. I the hospital is a still trying to get her records from that place. My sister an I drove to the rehab Sunday to get them to send her stuff over an they still ain t. But this place is a joke I walked in an said hello can I get some help an the staff just looked at me an walked off anyone on the streets can do whatever there.. there is fentanyl going on there the hospital said there is least 4-5 people aweek coming from that place from an OD. An I did record my visit there an I will be doing something about this place soon. They literally don t have a clue what goes on here the staff cares less. An even the patients was telling me who the person was handing the drugs out to people an the staff didn t care. So if anyone wants a family member to get better an to better there life this is not the place.

Had good and bad experiences at stepping stone but Denver Johnson kinda yelled at me In a way i will never forget. I honestly think him, Darren and Tracy saved my life one night I tried to AMO early. Finished treatment and coined out Dec. 16 been sober ever since. Sometimes one conversation can change your life but you have to hear it to listen

my wife was in there and let's just say the Communcation isn't all that good. they had to call an ambulance for her to bring her to the hospital and no one reached out to me to let me know anything till 24hrs later when my wife called to tell me. And the staff said it because it was too late in the day, but it was 3pm when they called the ambulance.

Inwardly I was longing for a way out of the game of addiction. Having tired recovery before I wasn't sure about it. Finding my Schema's was as it says a stepping stone to weightlessness.
