About Shepherd Center – Atlanta, Georgia
The Shepherd Center is a non profit hospital in Atlanta, Georgia that specializes in rehabilitation services for individuals with neuromuscular conditions. Clients who served in the military can receive outpatient addiction treatment at a separate location on campus. The payment options accepted at this facility include Medicaid and Medicare.
Because the Shepherd Center often treats veterans who have had injuries in service, they created their SHARE Military Initiative program to provide substance abuse counseling. It’s available for all service members who have served since September 11, 2001, and first responders. The staff is able to assist individuals who have a co occurring mental health and substance use disorder.
This program can also help with some common mental illnesses that can occur alongside addiction like anxiety, post traumatic stress disorder and depression. You can choose to participate for up to 14 weeks, and the facility gives you the flexibility of doing the program virtually. I like that you can also be provided housing in one of the hospital’s studio apartments if you participate in the full day program.
The services within the program include individual and group therapy, recreation therapy, and medication management groups. Your counselor will help you improve your emotional regulation through strategies such as engaging in positive self talk and practicing mindfulness.
The hospital will provide you with a transition support specialist who will help you return to your community and continue on the path to recovery. You’ll be provided with follow up sessions for 12 months to ensure that you’re getting the resources and care services you need to maintain your sobriety.
