Location

Accepted Insurance

Harmony Oaks Recovery Center works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

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.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

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
Inpatient rehabs are designed principally for clients who require intensive supervision and support, including clients who have just completed detox, clients in early recovery, and clients at an elevated risk of relapse. Inpatient treatment helps clients stabilize following detox and prepares them to step-down into outpatient and/or community-based care. Clients reside at the facility for the duration of their program and engage in extensive addiction counseling and education. Many programs also offer evidence-based complementary therapies.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.
partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program
A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.
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. The length of stay at the detoxification program is determined according to the specific needs of the patient.

Treatments

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.

Clinical Services

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.

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.

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.

Family therapy uses a structured environment to address the complexities of addiction and the negative influences it has on the family unit. Therapists work with family members to develop effective coping and communication strategies that support their loved one's recovery while also focusing on the health and well being of each family member.

This has been a Life-Saving program for me! After my last detox for alcoholism, I was presented with the opportunity to enter Harmony Oaks Recovery Center. Because of Harmony Oaks, combined with my own hard work, I am proud to be able to say that I am in my 6th month of sobriety! I have been able to go from a shell of a person in a constant state of intoxication to someone who is learning to enjoy life again. Had you asked me during my start there if I truly felt I wanted the help they were offering of course I would have said "NO" ! (my Amazing therapist Doug can vouch for that). Honestly, it was not until my 2nd week there that my eyes started to open to the help they were trying to provide. It ultimately came down to whether or not I was willing to accept it.I appreciate that Harmony does not preach to you about getting sober. Instead, they go far in-depth into explaining the functioning of how the mind/brain works in those suffering with addiction and mental health. Personally, I benefited the most from the 1 on 1 sessions with my therapist, Doug. The amount of insight on dealing with accountability, trauma, and self-forgiveness he has been able to share with me has been invaluable. My time at Harmony Oaks has not been without setbacks (mostly of my own doing), but I am so much more prepared to deal with the future had I never chose to participate in the program. It is truly what you make of it!

I recently completed a 30-day stay in the Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) at Harmony Oaks Recovery, and I can't express how transformative my experience was. Upon arrival, I found it quite overwhelming to have my phone taken away, especially since I'm someone who is used to having control. It took about a week to adjust to this new environment.However, as the program progressed, I began to feel more comfortable and connected. By the end, I had made so many meaningful connections with both the staff and other patients. The therapists, especially Paula and Abi, were incredible; they provided valuable insights and support that truly helped me on my journey to recovery. In fact, by the end of the program, I didn t want to leave!Of course, there were always a few "bad apples" in the group, which is to be expected in any setting. But if you go in and focus on yourself, you will get what you need from the program. I also met some amazing women who will continue to be friends and support one another, even though we all live miles apart.Unfortunately, I did have a negative experience when my house was sent back home due to a positive COVID test, which led to a five-day quarantine. The clinic attempted to conduct Zoom group sessions during that time, but technology failed us all, highlighting a need for a better plan in such situations. As someone with an autoimmune disease, I contracted COVID about a day later and got very sick. I requested Sudafed, which is the only thing that helps me, but I was denied it. Ultimately, I had to call my husband to pick me up that night and went back home to recover before returning to the program. I understand the rules and regulations regarding medication distribution in a treatment center, but it was frustrating to go through that experience. I believe they should have a better way of handling such situations in the future.One area that could use improvement is the catering for breakfast and lunch. The meals provided were not good, and there needs to be a better selection, especially for those who are gluten-free or have dietary restrictions. This would help create a more inclusive environment for everyone.After PHP, I entered the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), which required me to drive over an hour from home three days a week. This became increasingly stressful, adding to my mental load as I tried to balance work, school, and treatment. Unfortunately, I had to leave treatment before I was officially discharged due to the overwhelming demands.By the end of my treatment, I decided to go back to college to pursue a bachelor's degree in psychology and work on my master's in clinical health. The people at Harmony Oaks opened my mind and heart to my purpose in life.Overall, my time at Harmony Oaks Recovery was life changing. I left feeling more equipped to handle my mental health challenges and with a renewed sense of hope. I highly recommend this facility to anyone seeking support in their recovery journey, but I hope they can improve their handling of unforeseen circumstances like COVID and enhance their meal offerings, especially for those with dietary needs.

My whole experience at Harmony Oaks has been amazing. Like any other place there are some kinks that need worked out, but the staff is on top of working on making the clinic even better.My therapist Doug was absolutely amazing. He genuinely is connected with his patients and wants to help. He s very open and relatable, which makes opening up and being vulnerable so much easier. Which I m not sure if my openness was good or bad The facilitators are great. They are knowledgeable and attentive. Personally for me, I relied and clicked with Ciera the most. They re a great person and so easy to talk to. They also genuinely care about your recovery and is so so supportive.The biggest flaws were definitely with housing, BUT, they are getting new housing and more techs. So while there may be some flaws there, they are activator working on making it a better place for future clients.The whole program makes you feel at home. The skills and knowledge that I ve received, I hope, will be something I carry with me and revert back to when I need it most. I m so grateful for all of you. I genuinely say that you all saved my life and I m forever grateful that you were a part of my healing journey.

Fact: Several clients aare currently using and have used illicit substances with staff knowledge and are allowed to continue without any consequences.Fact: clients regularly have food and belongings stolen from them with the knowledge of staff and are allowed to continue without repercussionsFact: Harmony Oaks regularly make promises about amenities, resources and opportunities over the phone during intake that are false misleading potential clients to get them in the door for financial gain.Fact: Harmony Oaks Clinical team is understaffed and overworked and lack adequate organization and communication between therapists regarding groups.Fact: There is no way to actually communicate issues or possible solutions to them with staff that makes and impact in any way shape or form.Fact: If you are on any Suboxone dose higher than 12 mg daily you will not be allowed to come without reducing your current maintenance dose.Fact: They do not have a nurse on staff therefore they do not offer the sublocaid shot. They do not prescribe Wellbutrin or Gabapentin. If you have an existing prescription they will demand that you taper off of it when you come to Harmony Oaks.Fact: When I reached out to their customer service line as directed by the owner to communicate these issues all I got was an automated system and voicemail box.

I am a current client at Harmony Oaks. I'm going to share some objective facts of the last two weeks.First, A client who has relapsed on crack twice was allowed back into our PHP recovery house by staff and within 30 minutes of being there, was smoking crack with another client in the same house who has relapsed 6 times on crack in the last 2 months without ever being sent to detox or to another facility. When I let two of the behavior techs know about cocaine being used in our house, both clients were allowed to stay without repercussions and are currently still in the program.Secondly, there are multiple clients using weed and weed pens in IOP housing and even though staff has been told about this by several clients and from failed drug tests by the clients using drugs they are allowed to continue in the program without accountability or being sent to a higher level of care. Also there is a major problem with food and clothing items being stolen from several clients in IOP housing and even though both housing staff and clinical staff has been alerted about this they literally have done nothing to resolve the issues. Bottom line the safety of clients belongings and personal recovery from addiction is being compromised and tested daily and the authorities within the program are allowing it to continue as if they are apathetic or powerless to make changes. The times I've personally talked to staff about the problems I've been told that it's out of their hands and there's nothing they can do. If you are thinking about sending a loved one here then I would urge you to reconsider because of the general disorganization and apparent indifference to drug use from the Harmony Oaks leadership.One more issue worth noting, I've talked to several peers in the program who were promised various privileges and access to certain resources as well as amenities upon entry to the program that simply aren't even available or true.The fact is I've seen at least three people leave because they were lied to over the phone and had promises made to them that were simply untrue in order to get them in the door so Harmony Oaks could get paid. If they are willing to lie for money's sake do they really care about their clients getting better?!

I recently completed the Residential/PHP program at Journey Pure in Murfreesboro Tennessee. I was then transferred here to Harmony Oaks Chattanooga Tennessee location. The staff and people I have aquatinted myself with here are great! I have a wonderful therapist (AJ) and recently had the opportunity of meeting our new clinical director Bethany Hanczor.

I also think that the facility could use the improvement in this department. Thank all you guys so much for your help with everything in my rehabilitation journey!!!
