About Northside Hospital Behavioral Health Services

Northside Hospital Behavioral Health Services is an addiction treatment center in Atlanta, Georgia. Their dedication to helping adults navigate recovery is impressive to me. They offer a continuum of care that includes crisis intervention and intensive outpatient programs along with traditional outpatient services. Their multidisciplinary team uses research based interventions with a compassionate approach to address both substance use disorders and mental illness.

Comprehensive Outpatient Addiction Treatment Programs

Their comprehensive services stand out to me. Addiction care usually starts with a nursing assessment or psychiatric evaluation to decide the most effective treatment path for each client. Whereas some may need crisis intervention or residential referrals, others enroll in the 18 week Intensive Outpatient Recovery Program for substance use.

Participants in the IOP and outpatient tracks will get evidence based therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy as well as mindfulness training. Treatment plans are tailored to meet unique dual diagnosis needs, mixing relapse prevention strategies with family involvement and 12 step abstinence models for long term stability.
