Drug & alcohol rehab centers in Franklin, TN

The treatment centers on this page come from our directory of licensed and accredited providers serving Franklin and the surrounding Williamson County area. We put the listings together to make it easier to see what each center offers, who it works with and how you can pay for treatment. A provider doesn't move up the list simply because it paid for an ad or sponsored placement.

We pay attention to current Tennessee licensing, recognized third party accreditation and the information providers make available about their services. We also point out options such as medication assisted treatment, specialized programs and financial assistance when they're available.

Sponsored listings are labeled clearly. Being listed here doesn't mean a center is the right fit for you or that we endorse its treatment. Always contact the facility directly to confirm that its services, availability and insurance options are still current.

Franklin is the seat of Williamson County, an affluent suburb about 20 miles south of Nashville. The Tennessee rehab directory lists 10 treatment providers in and around the city. They are weighted toward outpatient and residential care. If you can't find a program to meet your needs, you can also reach the wider Nashville metro network of addiction treatment options within a short drive.

Statewide, anyone can reach treatment through the Tennessee REDLINE. It is a free,  confidential 24/7 referral line that connects Tennesseans to care whether or not they have insurance. For residents who can’t afford treatment, the Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (TDMHSAS) funds care for those who qualify. TDMHSAS is importantly filling gaps left by the state’s Medicaid coverage limits.

Williamson County has the lowest overdose death rate of any county in Tennessee. But this doesn't mean that opioid use disorder and fentanyl haven't impacted the community. Alcohol is the most common reason people seek care here. For both reasons, quick access to treatment and naloxone remains critically important.

There is no single price for rehab in Franklin. Local figures track with state averages.

Cost depends on the level of care, treatment length, whether a program is public or private and insurance coverage. Medical detox and residential care are the most expensive, largely because they include 24/7 care. Outpatient counseling is the most affordable option and medication assisted treatment falls in between. Most people don't pay these amounts out of pocket once insurance, TennCare or a sliding fee scale is applied.

Unfortunately, Tennessee did not expand Medicaid. This means only those who are eligible people can get TennCare, which covers the substance use continuum.

For those who don’t, TDMHSAS funded treatment and the Behavioral Health Safety Net provide care based on income. Options such as treatment scholarships and financial assistance can also help with private programs.

Every treatment center listed in our Franklin directory accepts self pay and private insurance. Several also bill TennCare, Medicare or TRICARE and some offer financial assistance.

Franklin is in Williamson County, which has the lowest overdose death rate in Tennessee. That doesn't mean the area is untouched by the overdose crisis. Its rate is still much lower than the state's, even though fentanyl continues to play a major role in overdose deaths across Tennessee.
