About DeKalb Regional Crisis Center

The Georgia-based DeKalb Regional Crisis Center is a drug and alcohol treatment center that supports adults with substance use disorders. They also provide valuable community resources, such as referrals, crisis and psychiatric services.

Some of the addiction-related services at DeKalb Regional Crisis Center include mental health assessments, counseling, outpatient programs, inpatient detox, residential addiction treatment, and peer support services.

Mental Health Assessment and Counseling
Assessments help counselors to evaluate participants’ mental health for substance use disorder, the severity, and any co-occurring conditions. The information is used to create an individualized treatment plan, which may involve individual, group, and family counseling.

Inpatient Detox
Inpatient withdrawal management services support individuals to safely and comfortably detox from drugs and alcohol with minimal withdrawal symptoms. Following detox, participants are referred to a residential or outpatient addiction treatment program.

Residential Substance Use Disorder Treatment
Residential addiction treatment programs rely on evidence-based practices to treat addiction and mental health conditions. They offer programs for adults (18+). Treatment begins with an assessment to determine individual needs and formulate an individualized treatment plan.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Outpatient is for individuals who need addiction treatment, but don’t need 24-hour care, and is suited to adults over 18. IOP requires participants to attend treatment sessions several days a week, which includes individual and group counseling, skills development groups, and psychoeducation.

Peer Support Program
Peer support services are offered by individuals with lived experience of addiction and recovery. Certified by the state, peers can support individuals to make a recovery plan, access services, and navigate challenges in recovery.

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.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.
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.
outpatient iconOutpatient
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
aftercare iconAftercare Support
Aftercare, which is sometimes referred to as continuing care or relapse prevention, is a type of structured care meant to help you continue with the progress you've made after completing an addiction treatment program. Most of the time, you'll continue receiving support after a treatment program by partnering with their case managers and staff to identify and access the resources you need to remain sober.

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.

A quality drug rehab in Georgia can help you overcome addiction. This environment is designed to help you address the complex issues contributing to drug dependence. The goal of treatment is to give you the tools you need to make a full recovery.

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

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.
program-for-women thumbnail image
Program For Women
Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.
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.

Clinical Services

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.

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.

Staff needs to be more impartial when it comes to attending patients because I think everyone should get the same quality of help. They could improve in the organization and that would allow them to help more effectively. Anyway, thanks for making me understand that if I wan ... Read More

Instead of showing up at their door, and assuming you are in need of detox as soon as possible, go to a hospital and state you are withdrawing from whatever it is and that you are suicidal. While you are on the hold there, the hospital may seek to transfer you here or another detox facility; ask to be transferred here if that is where you want to go. At the time I attended, Wellstar hospitals were known to be better about finding you a detox rather than putting you back out on the street. Wellstar Kennestone worked for me and transferred me here.It has been almost 10 years since I stayed, here is what I recall from my visit:Positives--doctors and nurses were generally attentive and kind. The doctor, particularly, genuinely seemed interested in my well-being-for a free facility, the food was actually very very good.-nicotine patches in lieu of being able to smoke were sufficient and appreciated-did ensure i left with a plan for continued treatment-weekends got quite boring, but one of the floor staff brought some movies and we, essentially, had a movie marathon. I appreciated it and it def helped to pass the time.Negative--the shared bedroom was so so so cold. Some of the other bedrooms seemed less cold so YMMV. I may have also been abnormally cold due to detox, of course.-shower and bathrooms were gross and in need of an update5 stars because it is free (I believe *technically* it is based on income) to residents of Dekalb and Fulton, wonderful service for the cost.

Voluntarily checked in for alcohol detox. Although I checked myself in the Doctor still determined when I discharge and can place you on a 1013 if they find it necessary. The counselor doctors nurses and techs were so kind. They hold group meetings and the people holding them have been in the same position as the patients they provided a lot of information that was helpful for my needs. There was a rude receptionist when my family member called but nonetheless the overall experience was eye opening I felt cared for and looked after. This was just the beginning now the real work starts. If your family member/friend or you need to detox please consider them.Oh bring some books and or a journal with you. Will help during the day. clothes too go to their website to see what s allowed.Thank you to everyone who helped me out

First time I came here and somebody need to call the health department. The big security lady was extremely rude, I literally was about to walk back out the door and pursue my plans to end my life but thank God I didn't. Other than the people being mad that they work there the place is disgusting no matter how many times they clean it. The people really have no supervision until they are rude to staff or loud. They basically sit you in the room with other people that are extremely unsanitary and don't covid test until you leave. The place is truly horrific and the food was always never hot. Thankfully I had insurance so I only stayed 3 and a half days before they referred me out, due to the weekend. I feel awful for the people that are here and actually need help. I've been to many facilities in my lifetime but this one doesn't even remotely comes close to clean.
