800-671-4304About Anchor Hospital
Anchor Hospital in Atlanta, George, provides substance use disorder treatment services for adults, teens and seniors. You can receive medically supervised detoxification to ensure you safely get through withdrawal. The 55 acre campus you’ll be staying at will provide the seclusion you need to focus on recovery.
Care from Experienced and Trained Staff
The facility has over 30 years of experience helping individuals overcome addiction and is accredited by The Joint Commission. Your counselor will help you learn how to cope with withdrawal symptoms you might experience, such as anxiety and muscle aches. You’ll receive 24 hour nursing and physician care to monitor your progress and make sure you’re safe.
Effective Therapeutic Treatment During Detox
While you’re going through detox, you may also participate in family therapy and expressive therapy. Family therapy can help heal any damage caused to your relationships by substance use and strengthen your support system.
Expressive therapy can provide you with a new outlet for managing your stress to help prevent relapse. Examples of expressive therapy include painting, journaling and coloring. When you are able to check out different places in Atlanta, a nice area you can go to do some journaling is the Cascade Springs Nature Preserve.

Inpatient and residential programs provide round-the-clock medical and emotional support as you live at the treatment facility. This level of care may be recommended if you have severe addictions or mental health conditions since it removes outside distractions and allows you to focus solely on therapy. |
In outpatient therapy, you’ll attend therapy sessions several times each week while living at home. This is ideal if you have a strong support system and a lower risk of relapse. Outpatient treatment offers flexibility to maintain work, school or family obligations. |
Partial hospitalization programs provide comprehensive treatment in a structured setting during the day but allow you to return home at night. These programs offer a balance of inpatient and outpatient rehab and provide intensive support without full time residency. |
Dual diagnosis programs address substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions simultaneously. This integrated approach to care improves the likelihood of long term recovery and stability by addressing the root causes of addiction. |
Aftercare programs provide ongoing support after you complete a rehab program. They may include several components to help you maintain sobriety including therapy, community support groups and relapse prevention strategies. This gives you a network of resources as you reintegrate into your daily life. |
