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.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

Clients in intensive outpatient programs (IOP) receive robust, personalized care to support their reintegration into their community. Clients stepping down from inpatient treatment frequently enroll in IOP before entering standard outpatient care or community-based recovery programs, such as AA. Intensive outpatient treatment generally involves between nine and 20 therapeutic hours weekly, with the frequency and duration of sessions decreasing as clients stabilize. IOP services commonly include counseling, recovery education, holistic therapies, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).

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

When enrolld in an addiction recovery program that's based on the 12 step model, clients are able to cultivate recovery-focused life skills emphasizing spiritual, mental, and emotional healing. Participants receive intensive peer support in 12 step meetings, which are anonymous, free, open to the public, and available day and night in most communities. Self-selected sponsors guide sponsees through the recovery journey, cultivating self-awareness, forgiveness, acceptance, and accountability. Though these programs are rooted in spiritual principles, participants aren't required to be religiously affiliated.

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.

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.

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.

equine-therapy iconEquine Therapy

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 training teaches you how to cope with challenging situations in non destructive ways. This crucial piece of drug rehab in Tennessee gives you tools for decision making, relationship building, and self care.

recreational-therapy iconRecreational Therapy

Recreational therapy supports addiction recovery by giving you structured activities that promote physical and mental health. These help build a supportive network of your peers that promotes sobriety. Activities can include sports, creative arts, and outdoor adventures that help you reduce cravings, manage stress, and give you an emotional outlet.

art-brush iconCreative Arts Therapy

Creative arts therapy can be integrated with other therapeutic methods during drug rehab in Tennessee. This treatment can provide unique experiences that allow you to better understand your feelings and experiences. Methods include music, art, dance, and writing therapy.

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.

This sounds weird but im not a parent of a student.. I am the student. And all I want to say is that this place helped me so much, I've grown into a completely different person from when I came in. The staff there are supportive and understanding. The treatment enforcement is 10/10 and the therapy team is one of the best I've had. All I wanna say cause this might go on the review board. YOU CAN DO THIS. Push through get to transition I know you can, you can do hard things and it may be hard being away from family but at the same time it's not that long. You all can do so great keep it up.Sincerely-wetjet

I m a single parent who has been raising a challenging future adult. Embark was exactly what my son and I needed. It took every bit of the first 45 days for my son to give in and accept why he was there and not at home, but when he did, his journey of positive change was evident. With Embark s help, I also worked on what I needed to as a parent while my son was in the program.The entire staff is truly amazing! I can t say enough good things about what they ve done for my son and how they included me at every step. You can tell that they genuinely care about your child s wellbeing on the very first day, and it carry s through the entire program.Embark has without a doubt been a blessing to my son and I! They did what so many other facilities refused to do for my son - give him a chance. I am in their debt and will sing Embark s praises to anyone that will hear me out, and I have!My son has been back home for almost 2 months, is working at a great summer job, and is continuing to use the skills he learned from Embark. He still misses the connections he made with the staff there.Listen, the staff at Embark know what they re talking about! Trust their process and let them help you! Their program is fantastic.I ve read one or two poor reviews about the Embark s education program, and I wanted to challenge whoever is reading this to consider why your child is at a facility like Embark. Sure, school is important, but the primary goal is for our sons to have the ability to maintain their mental health. School was very difficult for my son and he was already far behind when he entered Embark. I had many questions about the schooling and if he was getting enough to keep him from falling farther behind. Eventually I chose to trust their system and to be more concerned with his mental health. I m so glad I did! He wasn t there for tutoring. He was there for his mental health. I just had to decide which one I felt was most important.Their property is gorgeous with tons and tons of outdoor activity. They re staffed with the best mental health professionals - I ve checked.Thank you, Embark!p.s. Read Scream Free Parenting, The Road Home by Reuben Jimenez, and The Parallel Process by Krissy Pozatek. All recommended to me by members of the Embark staff as my own homework during my son s treatment program. The first one was a parenting game changer for me!!

Great place. Embark was a true blessing to our family and set us up to the right path after treatment also. It s amazing about how our son has turned things around at home now. It s not an easy choice to leave your child somewhere for treatment but if I had to do it all over again I still would choice Embark. I asked my son if he thought Embark was a good place just cause he was the one there and yes said yes that he knew it really helped him. The team knows there jobs and will teach your son life skills it a loving and family friendly environment. The key is to stick it out no matter how hard it is to leave them there.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Embark at the Forge. Every single person was so caring and so helpful to us at such a difficult time in our lives. They gave us the help and the hope we needed for our son. While he still has a journey ahead of him, he is on the road to healing and it is all because of the Forge. Most important of all is they brought back his smile! Our son even thanked us for sending him.
