About Emory University Hospital at Wesley Woods – Atlanta
If you venture just east of Burbanck Park you’ll find Emory Addiction Center in Atlanta, Georgia. This clinic specializes in treating co-occurring substance use disorders in adults and adolescents through outpatient services. Their staff uses a multidisciplinary approach to identifying the needs of each patient and helping them build an individualized treatment plan.
This facility accepts Medicare and Medicaid. They work with many other insurance plans, too. Financial assistance is available.
Having strong relationships and social connections is one way to lower the future risk of relapse. One way this reinforces this concept is through skill building groups, where you and others in treatment work together on developing your coping and sober living skills.
When you’re working side by side with others in recovery, you’ll get the chance to learn from them and share some of your insights. Everyone experiences their challenges with addiction, and you never know when your perspective (or someone else’s) will lead to a breakthrough.
The families of those in treatment need help, too. They are often negatively impacted by the substance use of a loved one and could have their own challenges to rise above. That’s why this location offers family support groups, allowing people to come together to lend and hand share their own experiences.
