MARR Addiction Treatment Center

About MARR Addiction Treatment Center – Doraville

Based in Doraville, Georgia, MARR Addiction Treatment Center is an award-winning treatment center offering extensive treatment for co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders. MARR has taken a holistic and spiritually based approach to recovery since 1975, offering services that address the unique needs of adult men and women seeking permanent sobriety. They incorporate the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous into their programs while addressing the underlying issues that led to addiction, providing a solid foundation for a meaningful life in recovery. MARR ensures this commitment is well established, providing personalized care and a life-long network of recovery support.

Their location situates them near everything Atlanta has to offer, yet close to the peaceful ambiance of Lake Allatoona. In fact, they take advantage of this setting to bring clients weekly to a retreat center, Camp Donnie Brown, located at Lake Allatoona. This outing allows clients to experience nature and participate in therapeutic and physical wellness activities.

The most unique aspect of MARR is the level of structured, gender specific residential addiction treatment. The program includes solo and group therapy, but clients work with licensed clinicians to create a custom treatment plan. They have a very unique community model, focusing on those bonds between people that are so important in creating solid recovery over the long haul.

MARR’s outpatient addiction treatment allows people to continue taking care of their other responsibilities while still receiving the care they need. It incorporates one-on-one counseling and includes a family healing center for family members to support their loved one’s recovery.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

12-Step

12 step programs such as Alcoholics or Narcotics Anonymous are support group style programs for individuals who are experiencing alcohol or substance use disorder. At Evoke they use a holistic model of addiction care that includes using 12 step programs. These programs are an integral part of most relapse prevention plans and provide continued support and accountability that support sobriety.

Aftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Inpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Intervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.

Outpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
