If you or a loved one is struggling with substance use, Tennessee Behavioral Health offers 24/7 confidential support, same-day admissions, and personalized addiction treatment for adults across Nashville and Middle Tennessee.
At Tennessee Behavioral Health, we provide focused, compassionate care for adults facing addiction and mental health challenges. Our intimate, family-style setting welcomes everyone, so you are never just a number – you receive real attention and genuine connection throughout recovery.
Every client receives personalized treatment options built around their history, goals, and needs, rather than a one-size-fits-all program. Because our team is small and staffed around the clock, you can reach a real person the moment you decide you are ready, with no waitlists and no runaround.
Most clients begin with medically supervised detox in a dedicated men’s or women’s track, then step into our inpatient residential program. These three programs are the heart of what we do:
Medically supervised detox in a dedicated men’s track
Medically supervised detox in a dedicated women’s track
24/7 residential care that continues after detox
Medical detox is the first step in treatment: safely clearing drugs or alcohol from your body while a medical team manages withdrawal. Detoxing without supervision can be dangerous, especially from alcohol, benzodiazepines, and opioids. Our team keeps you safe and as comfortable as possible in a 24/7 stabilization environment, monitoring your vitals, easing symptoms, and adjusting care to your body’s response as substances leave your system. A licensed medical team is on call throughout the process, ready to step in quickly if withdrawal becomes severe, so you are never left to manage the hardest hours on your own.
Within those men’s and women’s tracks, we provide medically supervised detox for a wide range of substances:
Detox for every substance takes place within those dedicated tracks, and you can explore our full substance use treatment options.
Our team brings together clinical and support staff who help clients find stability, build coping skills, and discover self-awareness.
Detox stabilizes your body, but lasting recovery means addressing what is underneath. When detox is complete, most clients step directly into our inpatient residential program, so there is no gap in support and no scramble to find the next step. You will not have to navigate that handoff alone – your care team coordinates every detail, from your last day of detox to your first day in residential, keeping your momentum going during the most fragile early days.

Reaching out takes one call. Here is what happens next:
Call our team anytime at (615) 285-6926 for 24/7 confidential support. We listen first and answer your questions with no pressure.
We check your coverage for you, often in minutes, so you understand your options up front.
We treat the whole person, not just the symptoms. Each client meets with a therapist one to two times per week, plus daily psychoeducational, process, and experiential groups that build real coping skills.

Our approach draws on proven, evidence-based methods, combined to fit your needs:
Address the roots of trauma
Ease cravings and withdrawal
Peer-supported recovery framework
Whole-person wellness
One-on-one focused sessions

Through my struggles the last two years, Tennessee Behavioral Health (TBH) is a safe place to rest. The staff is generous, kind, and truly care for each client.

Allison was one of the best parts with being super helpful as the program directorPosted on Google Lindsey RTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Healing, growth, a beautiful new beginning—and the new family I found along the way. My time at Tennessee Behavioral Health was a true journey of transformation. Through patience, compassion, and genuine care from the staff, I began to heal in ways I never expected. What started as an uncertain step toward change became one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. I found peace, clarity, and confidence, and left with a deep sense of self and purpose that I’ll carry forever. The house at Tennessee Behavioral Health is truly a place of comfort and healing. The outings and gym time were always enjoyable and gave us moments to relax, recharge, and feel normal again. Charles’s groups were meaningful and encouraging, helping us learn, grow, and connect. Attending church brought peace and renewal. The health care staff is beyond exceptional. Morgan, the Health Care Director, leads with compassion and integrity, setting the tone for the team. Leah Lima, APN, and nurses Laci, Candi, Meghan, and Chantelle are extraordinary—each provides care that goes far beyond medical needs. They listen, support, and make you feel truly seen and valued, and their kindness and dedication made each day feel safe and hopeful. The technicians—Scott, Dylan, and Jack—are amazing. They’re patient, funny, and genuinely care. Whether it was a conversation, a shared laugh, or help with something small, they always brought warmth and positivity. Chris, the chef, is wonderful—his food is incredible. Every meal tasted like it came straight from a five-star restaurant, and his kindness made dining something to look forward to every day. Johnna, my case manager, truly changed my life. She understood me deeply and was there every step of the way—listening, guiding, and supporting me through my growth. Her compassion, humor, and steady encouragement helped me rediscover parts of myself I thought were gone. Johnna is one of those rare people who make you feel seen and supported no matter what, and I’ll always be grateful for her. Allison, the Program Director, is one of the most compassionate and genuine people I’ve ever met—and hilarious in the best way. Her humor brightens even the hardest days, and her laughter fills the house with warmth. Beyond that, Allison is an exceptional leader—she balances professionalism with heart, always taking time to listen and understand. She goes above and beyond for everyone under her care, advocating fiercely and offering support that’s both wise and heartfelt. Her empathy and authenticity make her someone who instantly feels like home. Albert, the Director of Tennessee Behavioral Health, is the heart and soul of the program. His dedication and compassion are unmatched. He pours his heart into every part of Tennessee Behavioral Health—the home, the staff, and every client. The love and effort he invests are felt in every corner of the house. Albert leads with sincerity, vision, and a true commitment to helping others heal. His presence inspires trust, hope, and belonging. His passion has built something truly special—something that changes lives every single day. I thank God for being blessed with Tennessee Behavioral Health. It isn’t just a program—it’s a family. I love each of them dearly for the compassion, encouragement, laughter, and faith they poured into me. They believed in me until I could believe in myself. Because of them, my life is filled with peace, confidence, and hope—and I’ll forever be grateful for everything Tennessee Behavioral Health gave me. ❤️
Addiction and mental health often go hand in hand. Our dual-diagnosis treatment addresses both at the same time, because treating only one is usually not enough for lasting recovery. Our clinicians screen for co-occurring conditions from day one, so nothing gets missed and your plan reflects everything you are carrying. Whether you are facing depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, OCD, a personality disorder, adult ADHD, or grief alongside substance use, our team builds one coordinated plan that treats the full picture.
Recovery is stronger when loved ones are involved. Our weekly family program helps families understand addiction, rebuild trust, and learn how to support recovery at home. When families understand what recovery really asks of everyone, they can offer support that helps rather than hurts, and that makes a real difference after treatment ends. Weekly case management keeps your care coordinated, with the option to meet as needs come up, and we also offer family therapy and ongoing recovery support so the people who matter most can heal alongside you.
Detox stabilizes your body, but lasting recovery means addressing what is underneath. When detox is complete, most clients step directly into our inpatient residential program, so there is no gap in support and no scramble to find the next step. You will not have to navigate that handoff alone – your care team coordinates every detail, from your last day of detox to your first day in residential, keeping your momentum going during the most fragile early days.
