About Cherokee Health Systems Addiction Services
Located in a commercial plaza of Chattanooga, Tennessee, Cherokee Health Systems Addiction Services provides mental health services for clients of all ages. Cherokee Health Systems provides services to everyone, without regard for their health insurance status. If you need financial aid, they can help you learn about the ways you can offset the costs of treatment. They offer a sliding scale as well as access to grants to pay for services. They accept most health insurance plans including Medicare and TennCare.
For substance use disorders, they offer medication assisted treatment and general outpatient treatment. They provide various therapy types including solution focused, dialectical behavior therapy and trauma therapy.
I like that they offer peer support groups that focus on education, wellness skills and recovery. Peer supporters are certified by the Department of Mental Health. There are peers for mental health and substance use disorders. They also run peer wellness coaching on specific topics such as chronic pain self-management, nutrition, and exercise for recovery. You’ll also get to work on weekly goals during individual coaching sessions.
