About Discovery Place

Discovery Place is located in Burns, Tennessee, and provides drug recovery services to men who are living with a drug or alcohol dependence. Their recovery program provides inpatient treatment through a structured format.

Care starts with a 30-day residential program that will allow you to detox in a safe and supportive environment. After detox, you’ll begin working through a range of evidence-based and best-practice treatments including an in-depth 12 Step program to help you lay a strong foundation for the start of your sobriety.

Following this phase is the Long Term recovery program. This program continues with the 12 Step immersion approach but will include skills development so that you can build healthy habits to support your sobriety. Phase 3, or Step Down care, allows you to continue building those skills as you reintegrate into your life.

Discovery Place is unique in that after you complete the program, you will still have contact with staff and mentors even after your treatment plan is over. There are biweekly and monthly check-ins after you leave the facility to help encourage and motivate you long into your recovery.

Medical briefcase icon 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. This program allows men to experience an in-depth introduction to the principles of recovery in a healthy, welcoming atmosphere. Men will be guided through the 12 steps as directed in the big book of Alcoholics Anonymous. Guests reguarly attend outside and in-house recovery meetings, experience engaging recovery guest speakers and learn to rebuild skills necessary for transition into a life of sustained sobriety.

aftercare iconAftercare

Clients receiving support in a rehab aftercare program typically have abstained from drugs or alcohol for a period of weeks or months and have completed high-level (often inpatient) treatment. Drug rehab aftercare is designed to support clients in maintaining their sobriety as they re-engage with their ordinary lives at home, in the workplace, and in the community. Services are highly individualized and evolve with clients' changing needs, but generally include peer coaching and relapse prevention.

12-step icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

To keep you safe and comfortable during the detoxification process, a medically assisted detox provides you with a team of medical professionals who can provide the necessary medications to treat any potential withdrawal symptoms. Suddenly stopping chronic abuse of substances like alcohol, benzodiazepines, or opioids can have uncomfortable and even dangerous side effects.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

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.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

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.

substance-abuse iconSubstance Abuse

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.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

Typical cognitive behavioral therapy in Tennessee involves recognizing negative thinking and learning techniques to change that thinking and create new, positive behaviors. Strategies may include SMART goals, journaling, and situation exposure.

dialectical iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

Counseling in Tennessee that takes a dialectical behavior therapy approach can last from six to 12 months. During that time, you'll develop skills in the areas of distress tolerance, mindfulness, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

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.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

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.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

Trauma therapy is a safe place to work through the lingering effects of traumatic events in your life. Your therapist will help you understand the physical and emotional responses that can develop after witnessing or experiencing a traumatic event. You then work toward developing healthier coping mechanisms to reduce your symptoms.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

While engaged in couples therapy in Tennessee, you'll learn how to trust, communicate, forgive, and manage emotions. Developing these skills can be beneficial at any time during the relationship, but they are particularly crucial when facing life challenges.

family iconFamily Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

life-skills iconLife Skills

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.

medical-detox iconExperiential Therapy

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

Discovery Place is where I finally found a path toward continued, healthy sobriety. The people that work and serve there all have one thing in common: they truly care about changing people's lives for the better through recovery. The spiritual growth I experienced during my time there has been transformational. I know there is no cure for my addiction, but there is a design for living that really works, and DP put me on that path. I am very grateful today for this place.

I heard a guy say once that God looked down on this earth and said I have to do something for my pour old drunks and he sent us the program of Alcoholics Anonymous and I believe that to be true. I feel the same way about Discovery Place it's a gift from God. They gave me a few simple tools and showed me how to use them to live sober and happy in this world. I am still flawed at best but I am a little better Husband, father and friend than I used to be. I will never forget my time at Discovery Place and really enjoy going down to visit on family nights.PS hang in there ColeTim Wright Alumni 2001

Being a friend of Discovery Place and the immense impact it has and continues to have on recovering alcoholics and addicts is nothing short of amazing.My experiences with Discovery Place, the staff and clients has enriched my life, and hopefully the lives of all that cross the entry way into DP (our hip way to say Discovery Place).I highly recommend and celebrate the thousands that have come and gone, and the many that stay to continue in loving service to the DP community of which I'm so privileged to be a part of.

Feeling grateful that I have my son back! Discovery Place helped make that possible. What a wonderful program DP offers with truly caring, experienced staff members and guides. It s so difficult to watch someone struggling with addiction. I m so thankful for this program that brought love, light, courage, strength and so much more back to my son. I encourage you to give this gift of hope to your loved one as well.

I cannot say enough good things about Discovery Place. Admissions staff, counselors --they all were knowledgeable, and caring. They gave my son the support he needed to become the person he was before his addiction. I researched and compared rehabs before selecting DP and even the judge was complimentary of DP's reputation for successful treatment. My son followed the complete residential program then moved to a halfway house, then a three-quarter house, all nearby, with support every step of the way. I only wish every addicted person could go through their program. I am forever grateful for what they have done for my son and so many others!

Thank you for trusting us during a difficult time. Your kind words mean so much to us!

The one word I think of when I hear Discovery Place is phenomenal. As the mother of a son suffering from a substance abuse disorder, I was extremely fearful he was close to losing his life to addiction. He had been in multiple rehabs without success. Discovery Place truly cares about the individual, and in the serene, peaceful surroundings of Discovery Place, the individual can escape the chaos of addiction and learn to redirect their life in a positive direction. The Discovery Place staff was incredible to provide a support system for the entire family, but more importantly, focusing on the needs of the individual. I highly, highly recommend Discovery Place.
