The Next Door

About The Next Door – Chattanooga, Tennessee

The Next Door is a faith based drug and alcohol treatment center for women in Nashville, Tennessee. They provide a full continuum of care that utilizes evidence backed treatments and therapies to address substance abuse and co-occurring disorders. They are a boutique setting with luxury amenities.

The Next Door prioritizes pregnant women up to 38 weeks in gestation. They are a group based on Christian practices and philosophy.

Detox is the first step toward recovering and treating women with severe addiction symptoms. Medically monitored detox allows clients to undergo the difficult process while under the 24 hour care and monitoring of a professional and caring medical team, which includes nurse practitioners, pharmacists, and physicians. Together, they work to reduce discomfort from withdrawal symptoms and offer encouragement and support.

Medication assisted detox services are available when appropriate.

The inpatient program is a 28 day intensive care plan that helps clients heal physically, emotionally, and spiritually by exploring the nature and causes of substance use disorder (SUD). Clients work with their care team to develop the best treatment plan for them. A daily schedule may include group and individual therapy following dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), medication management, supportive education groups, 12 step programs, spiritual wellness programs, experiential therapy, and nursing care.

Outpatient care is for clients who are not experiencing severe symptoms or are looking to continue their care following another treatment program. Clients attend meetings at the facility rather than residing on campus, allowing them to receive treatment while living their daily lives. An intensive outpatient (IOP) option is also available.

PHP is another day treatment option that meets from 9 AM – 3 PM, Monday through Friday. This is an intensive treatment option led by mental health specialists focusing on substance use disorders and adjacent mental health disorders.

The Next Door stays connected with alums following treatment to help them stay on the path to recovery. They can help by connecting clients to helpful recovery resources in their community.
