Detox in Georgia

The Retreat offers different programs for each stage of recovery including detox programs for opioids, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines, alcohol and prescription drugs. Residents in detox have access to private rooms, personal digital devices like phones and tablets, nutritious meals provided daily by a professional chef, lounge areas and quiet spaces for reflection. Professional medical staff supervise treatment 24/7 and recommend different therapeutic options.

Supportive Therapy and Aftercare

Clients who complete detox have the option to continue treatment with holistic therapy options and family counseling programs. The staff recommends bringing loved ones to the therapy sessions to help them understand addiction and how to provide better support.

Their Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome (PAWS) program is great for individuals that have completed the initial detox phase. This focuses on emotions or triggers that can lead to relapse. All patients have continued support and resources post recovery in order to improve success in long-term sobriety.
