Insight Program Stonebrakers

The Insight Program is an outpatient addiction treatment center in Roswell, Georgia built specifically for teens and young adults.

It offers a free evaluation to see if their program is a fit. They have intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization tracks, 12 step group therapy, counseling for co occurring conditions.

When higher level care is needed they also have a partnership with Step Two Recovery Center for residential care.

Their philosophy is that sobriety has to feel better than getting high and they offer a program designed to make that true.

Treatment Around Sober Fun

Many adolescent programs treat peer connection as a side effect. The Insight Program treats it as the priority.

The clinical belief here is that a teenager will not stay sober if sober life is boring.

The schedule includes weekly sober social events and twice weekly 12 step meetings held in the program's own Atlanta coffee shop rather than a clinical meeting room.

For families comparing options in Roswell this can mean that a 16 year old who associates recovery with punishment tends to disengage while one who builds a real social life inside the program has a reason to keep showing up.

You'll have a setting with others who have the same struggles and similar backgrounds with substance abuse.

After Treatment Ends

Completing an Insight program triggers enrollment in a 12 week aftercare program at no additional cost. This broader support group structure runs 18 to 24 months.

That's an unusually long period for an outpatient model where aftercare is often a referral sheet rather than a continuing relationship.

The family side offers parent support groups and counseling alongside the young person's treatment reflecting the program's position that addiction affects the entire family.
