Types of Substance Use Disorders We Treat

Centered Recovery Programs provide treatment for alcohol and drug use disorders. Our care includes support for alcohol, prescription medications, and illicit substances. Below are some of the addictions we commonly treat:

Alcohol Addiction

We treat alcohol use for adults in Metro Atlanta. Drinking can affect health, mood, work, relationships. Sessions build skills to handle urges and stressful moments. Our team coordinates medical oversight with trusted detox referral partners. Care respects privacy and daily routine.

Prescription Opioid Addiction

Prescription opioids like oxycodone or hydrocodone can cause dependence. Some adults in Metro Atlanta require medical detox before outpatient care. We coordinate detox referrals when clinically appropriate. Outpatient treatment can continue after medical clearance.

Benzodiazepine Dependence

Drugs like Xanax, Ativan, or Valium create dependence. Stopping too fast risks serious health problems. We coordinate safe tapers with your medical providers. Mindfulness and counseling support anxiety and sleep.

Prescription Stimulant Addiction

People sometimes misuse medications like Adderall or Ritalin. Misuse affects sleep, heart health, and mood. We support stopping misuse and building new habits. Sessions cover focus, energy, time skills, and stress.

Cocaine Addiction

Cocaine can drive strong cravings and hard crashes. We target physical urges and emotional patterns together. Therapy builds skills for stress and social pressure. Medical support is available for related health needs.

Meth Addiction

Methamphetamine harms body systems and mental health. Strong cravings and low mood challenge early weeks. We set a stable routine and focused groups. Topics include sleep repair and mental clarity. Staff monitor mood, energy, and safety closely.

Marijuana Addiction

Some people develop dependency with regular cannabis use. If use harms life, we help reduce. Mindfulness skills support boredom and anxiety without cannabis. Motivation and mental clarity can improve with change.

Polysubstance Use

Many adults use more than one substance. Common pairs include alcohol with cocaine or pills. We create one integrated plan for all substances. Safety comes first, including medical detox referrals. Treatment then targets habits and daily patterns.

Levels of Addiction Care We Offer in Atlanta

Centered Recovery provides several levels of care to match your needs and schedule. All levels are outpatient, meaning you live at home and visit us for treatment. After an initial assessment, our team will recommend the best level for your situation. We offer four main program options:

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is intensive outpatient day treatment. You receive about 30 hours per week in Atlanta. Sessions run Monday through Friday with full day schedules.

Each day includes multiple groups and psychoeducation classes. You attend at least 1 individual session each week. Skills target cravings, stress, sleep, and work pressures. Staff check vitals weekly and conduct random UAs.

PHP provides high support without 24 hour admission. Typical length runs 1 to 4 weeks. Clinicians may extend duration when medically appropriate. You return home each evening and keep routines. Day options include Roswell groups and statewide telehealth. Step down to IOP or OP when ready.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) provides strong care with flexibility. Clients attend 9 to 15 hours each week. Programming occurs in Atlanta and Roswell groups. Sessions run 3 to 5 days per week. A common schedule uses 3 hour weekday groups. Daytime or evening options support work and family. Telehealth extends access statewide across Georgia.

You also receive at least 1 individual session weekly. Monthly health checkups review vitals and wellness. Random UAs run at least once weekly. Group content targets cravings, stress, and daily routines. Mindfulness based practice supports applied coping skills.

Research suggests IOP of at least 9 hours helps. It supports people not requiring 24 hour care. Typical length ranges from 4 to 12 weeks.

Outpatient Program (OP)

The Outpatient Program supports long term recovery. It serves as a step down from higher care. Stay connected while you live at home and work.

OP includes 1 to 2 group sessions weekly. Most groups last 90 minutes during evening schedules. Plan on at least 1 individual session each month. We run at least 1 drug test every month for accountability. Content reinforces mindfulness for cravings and stress.

OP fits graduates of PHP or IOP programs. It also suits milder substance concerns that benefit from support. Length is flexible without a fixed end date. Stay engaged for months while balancing school, work, or family.

Educational Program (EDU)

The Educational Program offers a non clinical workshop path. It is open to anyone, including family members. You can sample our mindfulness based approach without treatment.

Participants attend the same classes and groups. Choose flexible drop in or course based access. A 12 week package covers all 13 topics weekly. You may also select a single group option.

This program provides education and excludes medical care. Participation requires no diagnosis or clinical enrollment. It supplements alumni or serves as a starting point.

Many families join EDU to support a relative. Content covers mindfulness skills for daily challenges. EDU excludes therapy and medical services.

How Addiction Treatment Works After You Choose a Level of Care

After you choose a level, start right away. We set goals, schedule sessions, and confirm safety steps. Care begins with intake, then groups and individual sessions.

Intake Assessment and Screening

You start with an intake assessment in Roswell or virtual. We review substance history, health, goals, and safety needs. We run a baseline UA if clinically appropriate.

Treatment Plan and Goals

Your clinician sets goals with you after intake. Plan lists level of care and weekly sessions. We add services like family sessions or trauma counseling.

Weekly Schedule and Group Sessions

You receive a weekly schedule for groups and workshops. IOP runs 9 to 15 hours across weekdays. PHP operates weekdays with daytime blocks in Roswell. Groups stay small to support participation and focus

Individual Therapy Sessions

You meet individually with a therapist on schedule. PHP and IOP meet weekly; OP includes 1 or 2 monthly sessions.

Medical Checks and Vitals Review

Staff monitor vitals to support safety during care. PHP includes weekly vitals checks in the clinic. IOP includes monthly reviews or more when needed.

Progress Review and Step Down

We review attendance, UAs, mood, and cravings weekly. You meet with your counselor to update goals. When goals hold, you may step down to IOP or OP.

Aftercare and Ongoing Support

Near completion, we will build an aftercare plan together. Plans may include outpatient sessions, community groups, and targeted referrals. We remain available if you need support.

Mindfulness Skills for Cravings and Stress

Mindfulness helps you pause between an urge and an action. You learn to notice thoughts and cravings without reacting right away. Techniques like urge surfing let feelings rise, peak, and pass on their own.

When tension builds or temptation appears, use mindful breathing. Take three slow breaths and follow each exhale fully. Then ground your attention in the present by naming five things you see, four you can touch, and three you can hear.

Check in with yourself each day for signs of stress. Choose one healthy action like calling a support person or going for a short walk. With steady practice, cravings pass more quickly, and your sense of control grows stronger.

How We Measure Progress

We measure progress with baseline and follow ups. PHQ 9 and GAD 7 track mood and anxiety. You retake surveys at intake, mid care, and discharge.

We track substance use through random UAs. If use occurs, we adjust care and skills. We review personal goals and attendance every week. Progress informs step down timing and aftercare planning.

PHQ 9 score at intake and discharge
GAD 7 anxiety score trend over time
Weekly craving scale to quantify urge strength
Random UAs recorded to support accountability
Counselor reviews attendance and participation weekly
Therapist checks goals and updates during sessions
Staff checks vitals in PHP and IOP
Team evaluates step down readiness from progress
