About Tara Treatment Center

The Tara Treatment Center in Franklin, Indiana has helped adults overcome drug and alcohol addiction since 1985. At this luxury rehab center, you can focus on your recovery in a peaceful, serene environment that covers 13 rural acres. They offer detox services, residential treatment, outpatient treatment, and aftercare support. You can pay for your stay on your own or use private insurance coverage.

The thing that stands out to me the most about this facility is their focus on holistic healing. They don’t just want to fix the symptoms of your condition. They want to help you reclaim your life on a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual level. To get there, they incorporate a few different concepts, including the 12 step model of recovery, evidence based therapy, and psychoeducational programming.

They offer different residential locations for men and women, each designed to feel as homelike and comfortable as possible. Most clients stay in this program for around 30 to 42 days. Each day, there will be time for small group sessions, daily reflection time, individual counseling, and outdoor recreation.

Even after your stay is over, you might find that you need a little more support as you reintegrate into society. That’s why they offer intensive and general outpatient services, too. Most programs include weekly counseling services that continue for nine weeks.

Clients reflect positively on their time at this facility. One said that it changed their life and another mentioned that after 38 years of trying to get sober, they finally did it here.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

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.

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.

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.

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.

sober-living iconSober Living Homes

Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.

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.

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).

aftercare iconAftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

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

For long-term recovery from drug addiction, drug rehab in Indiana is often key. This treatment gives individuals who are struggling with a substance use disorder the tools to manage their disorder and achieve long-term sobriety.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

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-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

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.

equine-therapy iconEquine Therapy

Equine therapy, aka equine-assisted therapy (EAT), is a form of experiential therapy that involves interactions and activities with horses. It does not necessarily involve riding horses, but all activities related to horses, such as feeding, grooming, haltering and leading them. A mental health professional frequently oversees the activities (often in conjunction with a horse professional), and helps patients process their thoughts, feelings, and behavior patterns during and/or after the interaction. This form of experiential therapy uses horses as a tool to teach recovery concepts metaphorically. These exercises are conducted by Equine Growth and Learning Association (EGALA) certified instructors.

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 therapeutic modality is a dynamic learning process which focuses on team building and recovery concepts. These groups use various activities to help individuals express feelings that may not come easily in formal “talk therapy.” These group exercises are taught by trained team-building facilitators.

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.

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.

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.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

It's been a little over 6 months since I self admitted to this treatment center. I must say I have mixed emotions about posting this review but I've had a lot of time to think about it. I am also six months clean and I would love to say it was all because of Tara, but is wasn't. It's because I stuck to my original plan upon exiting their care. Don't get me wrong, majority of the staff is wonderful and inspiring but some are extremely unprofessional, emotionally abusive, and stretched beyond their working capacity.I witnessed staff members ignore patients who cleared needed medical attention. I witnessed them gossip to other staff members about client's while I was present. I witnessed them break HIPAA laws by releasing my medical records to someone without my consent. I saw an HR employee "fraternize" with the opposite sex during off campus AA meetings. One of their group therapists is outright verbally abusive and practices some very controversial methods that are frankly outdated. They manipulated and gaslighted me into thinking my reaction to their abuse and misconduct was because of my addiction and mental health issues, but after a lot therapy I now realize this facility made a horrible mistake and then did everything they could to quickly cover their butts.Three of the biggest things that stand out to me, without going into extreme detail, are as follows;1. 2-3 weeks in I was feeling like I had made a lot of progress. I was getting good feed back from the staff and was even made group leader one week. I had an exit plan for care and felt really good about it until they got a family member involved against my consent. Then everything changed! They were no longer supportive and their entire demeanor changed. I won't go into too much detail but upon my discharge they refused to give me my medical records and some of the staff didn't even say goodbye. It was very bizarre, to say the least. I received my token and certificate of completion in which I completed above and beyond. I was praised by several staff members about my progress and growth before I left and that felt really good. That's why it was so confusing.2. I finally got a copy of my discharge records and the prognosis they gave me was poor, saying that the progress I made was unclear, I was not good in a group setting, still stuck in a victim role, and remained guarded and reserved. I'm sorry, but this does not match my experience at all. Yes, there were some hiccups but this facility has taken zero accountability for the mistakes they made in breaking HIPAA laws.3. Their IOP instructor seemed alright so I opted in for that not knowing it was coed and they were going to try and make me do physical activities where I'm being groped by the men. Ugh. No thanks! They also do a mock AA meeting during IOP. During my first one I just listened and did not know we were required to participate. I was basically told, along with one other person who didn't participate, to not come back, except she did it in a very passive aggressive way, not addressing us directly. We were both new to the group. Needless to say, I went to a women's IOP elsewhere.The reality is this isn't my first time in treatment but this is my first time ever leaving a bad review for anything. It's hard to complain when you have addiction issues because people automatically peg you as being a chronic victim but sometimes wrong is just that! WRONG! I am also going to make a formal complaint, but I'm not what sure what that will do. I just hope someone will read this if they are considering Tara. I honestly think it is a great treatment center, but ultimately just has a staffing issue. Here we are six months later and not one member of the staff has made contact with me. I would like to be a part of their alumni because I made some great connections and met some great people but I just don't feel welcome and that's ok, it's just unfortunate.

We called several times and kept getting the run about. Then we finally get a family member in there and they lied about everything. Not happy at all and will not recommend this place to no one.

I recently inquired about the facility. Amazing staff and very organized. I spoke with Amanda and she was extremely helpful and understanding. They have many options and are willing to listen and be supportive. For yourself, friends and loved ones this is worth it.

I made it, and I made it DESPITE some of the awful & emotionally abusive staff. There are some GREAT staff members here too- do not get me wrong on that!However, my personal experience at the women's house was so damaging I discharged early & found my own supportive communities near my hometown, instead.FIVE years in active recovery now, with very little thanks to this facility. A facility which claims to be understanding of mental health complications, but definitely are not. If I CAN thank them for anything, it is for learning about MY personal boundaries, & what is NOT acceptable when it comes to treatment & healthcare. My hope is that the facility has made an effort to rid itself of toxic and resentful staff members since my stay. It has great potential to save more lives if they did/do so!

Was a great first step in my recovery. The staff is awesome. Once we (as a group) felt the intense weight of our individual situations soften, we were able to laugh at many things. Mostly at ourselves. I remember that the most. Just do it. If you need help beyond your own ability to stay sober, you will be shown love even if you don't love yourself.
