About Bradley A Sanders Addiction Center

The Bradley A Sanders Addiction Center provides inpatient addiction treatment services to adult men aged 18 and older. I found it interesting that clients come through the Chancery Court, which is a special part of the court system that hears civil cases, including drug and alcohol commitments.

If the court determines that someone needs substance use treatment, they can send them to the Bradley A Sanders program. The program can also treat co-occurring mental health issues.

Previous clients report that they enjoyed their experience in the program. Many participants report continued sobriety and a happier life.

Addiction Treatment Using the Matrix Model

The Sanders Center uses an evidence based approach known as the Matrix Model. This model includes methods such as motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).

They provide care using individual and group therapy as well as family education. There are written assignments, skill building classes and involvement in 12 Step programs. They also have mindfulness classes and recreational therapy.

I like that they have peer support specialists to provide additional reinforcement for new habits and help connecting to community resources and social services. As clients get ready to graduate from the program, they are given information about recovery meetings in their local community as well as other aftercare support.
