About Retreat of Atlanta
The Retreat of Atlanta set out to develop an inpatient detox program without using a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, they gather information about each client and their individual requirements before developing a plan suited to them. Support from medications and therapy can help address and manage any withdrawal symptoms in a safe, clinically-led facility.
Personalized And Medically Monitored Care
The Retreat of Atlanta provides inpatient detox services under clinical and medical supervision. Their well-rounded program aims to ensure a positive experience and provide a chance to start over. They monitor detox start to finish, with the length depending on each client’s history with substance use, their usual dosage, and symptoms. With a knowledgeable staff, The Retreat of Atlanta monitors all vitals and progress throughout detox. Clinical staff can issue medications like Buprenorphine to manage cravings, allowing for a more comfortable experience.
Continuing, Comprehensive Care
Following detox, addiction specialists develop a treatment strategy based on the patient's post-detox requirements. Treatment can include individual counseling, group therapy, family counseling, expressive therapy, motivational interviewing (MI), and therapeutic activities like yoga and meditation to help patients beat cravings and engage in personal growth. Therapeutic care also addresses mental health concerns, helping each client heal from their causing factor of addiction. The Retreat of Atlanta also helps clients find support and their next level of treatment after detox, setting them up for success.
Treatment Away From Triggers
The Retreat of Atlanta is conveniently located in Eatonton, Georgia, just outside of Atlanta. During each personalized detox plan, clients are surrounded by comfortable accommodations that are meant to feel safe, healing, and relaxing. Spacious bedrooms have a clean and modern look, with a personal desk and closet space included. Outside rocking chairs adorn the property and give more relaxation and recovery options.

Levels of Care
Treatment
Specializations
Alcohol
Using alcohol as a coping mechanism, or drinking excessively throughout the week, signals an alcohol use disorder.
Benzodiazepines
Benzodiazepines are prescribed to treat anxiety and sleep issues. They are highly habit forming, and their abuse can cause mood changes and poor judgement.
Drug Addiction
Drug addiction is the excessive and repetitive use of substances, despite harmful consequences to a person's life, health, and relationships.
Methamphetamine
Methamphetamine, or meth, increases energy, agitation, and paranoia. Long-term use can result in severe physical and mental health issues.
Who We Treat
Executives
Executive treatment programs typically directly support the needs of people who manage businesses and may provide flexible schedules and office space to allow work during treatment.
LGBTQ+
Addiction and mental illnesses in the LGBTQ+ community must be treated with an affirming, safe, and relevant approach, which many centers provide.
Midlife Adults
For adults ages 40+, treatment shifts to focus on the unique challenges, blocks, and risk factors of their age group, and unites peers in a similar community.
Professionals
Busy, high-ranking professionals get the personalized treatment they need with greater accommodations for work, privacy, and outside communication.
Veterans
Patients who completed active military duty receive specialized treatment focused on trauma, grief, loss, and finding a new work-life balance.
Approaches
Evidence-Based
A combination of scientifically rooted therapies and treatments make up evidence-based care, defined by their measured and proven results.
Family Involvement
Providers involve family in the treatment of their loved one through family therapy, visits, or both–because addiction is a family disease.
Individual Treatment
Individual care meets the needs of each patient, using personalized treatment to provide them the most relevant care and greatest chance of success.
Medical
Medical addiction treatment uses approved medications to manage withdrawals and cravings, and to treat contributing mental health conditions.
Gender-Specific
Separate treatment for men or women can create strong peer connections and remove barriers related to trauma, shame, and gender-specific nuances.
Therapies
1-on-1 Counseling
Patient and therapist meet 1-on-1 to work through difficult emotions and behavioral challenges in a personal, private setting.
Meditation & Mindfulness
A practiced state of mind that brings patients to the present. It allows them to become fully aware of themselves, their feelings, and the present moment.
Art Therapy
Visual art invites patients to examine the emotions within their work, focusing on the process of creativity and its gentle therapeutic power.
Experiential Therapy
With this approach, patients heal by doing. Therapists help patients process difficult emotions to speak, using guided activities like art or dance.
Family Therapy
Family therapy addresses group dynamics within a family system, with a focus on improving communication and interrupting unhealthy relationship patterns.
Medication-Assisted Treatment
Combined with behavioral therapy, prescribed medications can enhance treatment by relieving withdrawal symptoms and focus patients on their recovery.
Relapse Prevention Counseling
Relapse prevention counselors teach patients to recognize the signs of relapse and reduce their risk.
Sound Therapy
Sound therapy incorporates music, sound waves, and vibrations to promote emotional and spiritual healing.

Burnout
Burnout entails mental and physical exhaustion, and leads to a severe lack of fulfillment. This condition is often caused by overwork.
Chronic Pain Management

Symptoms of depression may include fatigue, a sense of numbness, and loss of interest in activities. This condition can range from mild to severe.

Substances We Treat
Alcohol
