How Our Nashville Addiction Treatment Programs Can Help Substance Use Disorder
Recovery is far more than simply abstaining from substances—it’s a transformative journey of rediscovering yourself and building a life filled with meaning, purpose, and authentic connection.
At Arbor Wellness, our mental health specialists recognize that addiction often emerges as an attempt to cope with underlying emotional pain, trauma, and mental health challenges that may have remained unaddressed for years.
We’re here to guide you through understanding and healing these fundamental experiences while developing healthier ways to navigate life’s complexities.Â
Our comprehensive approach doesn’t just treat the symptoms of addiction; it addresses the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—creating a sustainable path to wellness that extends far beyond our care.
You are not alone. You deserve to get help.

Psychiatry and Medication Management
Our board-certified psychiatrists provide expert medication management as a vital component of comprehensive addiction treatment:
For Alcohol Use Disorder:
- FDA-approved medications like naltrexone, acamprosate, and disulfiram to reduce cravings and maintain sobriety
- Medical monitoring to manage withdrawal symptoms safely and comfortably
- Personalized medication plans that adapt to your changing needs throughout recovery
- Treatment for co-occurring mental health conditions that may contribute to alcohol use
For Opioid Use Disorder:
- Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) options including buprenorphine, naltrexone, and methadone
- Comprehensive assessment to determine the most effective medication approach
- Gradual, supervised tapering plans when appropriate
- Integration with therapy to address psychological aspects of opioid dependence
- Ongoing medical support to prevent relapse and manage post-acute withdrawal
Psychotherapy for Substance Use
Our evidence-based therapeutic approaches address the psychological aspects of addiction:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Identifies and changes negative thought patterns that lead to substance use, developing healthier coping mechanisms and problem-solving skills.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Combines acceptance and change strategies to improve emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.
Trauma-Focused Therapy: Addresses underlying traumatic experiences that may fuel addiction through approaches like EMDR and trauma-informed care.
Group Therapy: Provides peer support, reduces isolation, and offers opportunities to practice communication skills and receive feedback in a safe environment.
Family Therapy: Heals relationships damaged by addiction and builds a supportive home environment conducive to long-term recovery.
Residential & Outpatient Programs for Substance Use
We offer a complete continuum of care to meet you wherever you are in your recovery journey:
Medical Detox: Our medically supervised detox program provides 24/7 monitoring to ensure your safety and comfort as your body clears itself of substances. Our compassionate team manages withdrawal symptoms through appropriate medications and supportive care in a peaceful environment.
Residential Treatment: Our immersive residential program offers a structured therapeutic environment away from triggers and stressors. With individualized treatment plans, daily therapy sessions, holistic wellness activities, and round-the-clock support, you’ll receive the intensive care needed to build a strong foundation for recovery.
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP): Bridge the gap between residential and outpatient care with our PHP, providing structured treatment during the day while allowing you to return home or to a sober living environment in the evenings.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): Continue your recovery journey while maintaining work, school, or family responsibilities. Our IOP offers flexible scheduling with multiple weekly therapy sessions, medication management when needed, and ongoing support as you apply recovery skills to daily life.
Signs and Symptoms of Addiction
Recognizing addiction is the first step toward healing. Common signs include:
- Increasing tolerance requiring more of a substance to achieve the same effect
- Experiencing withdrawal symptoms when not using
- Using larger amounts or for longer periods than intended
- Persistent desire or unsuccessful efforts to cut down or control use
- Spending significant time obtaining, using, or recovering from substances
- Continuing use despite physical or psychological problems caused or worsened by substances
- Neglecting important social, occupational, or recreational activities
- Using in situations where it’s physically hazardous
- Cravings or strong urges to use the substance
- Relationship difficulties, financial problems, or legal issues related to substance use
Types of Addiction
Addiction manifests in two primary forms, both requiring specialized treatment approaches:
Chemical Addictions involve dependence on substances that alter brain chemistry, including:
- Alcohol use disorder
- Opioid use disorder (prescription pain medications, heroin, fentanyl)
- Stimulant use disorder (cocaine, methamphetamine, prescription stimulants)
- Benzodiazepine dependence
- Cannabis use disorder
- Nicotine dependence
Behavioral Addictions involve compulsive engagement in rewarding behaviors despite negative consequences:
- Gambling disorder
- Internet gaming disorder
- Social media addiction
- Sex and pornography addiction
- Shopping addiction
- Food addiction
At Arbor Wellness, we recognize that these patterns share similar neurobiological mechanisms and require comprehensive treatment addressing both the behaviors and their underlying causes.
