About Atrium Health Behavioral Health

Atrium Health Behavioral Health is a drug and alcohol rehab facility for adults in Charlotte, North Carolina. The live-in program covers medically monitored detoxification, while the rest of your recovery will be on a part-time outpatient basis. Their goal is your physical, mental and spiritual recovery.

When you first enter treatment, they’ll take you through an assessment to get a full picture of your history and current usage. This gives them enough information to put together a treatment plan that’s suited to your needs. They use proven methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT).

You’ll stay at their facility for detox. They’ll give you addiction medicine to alleviate withdrawal symptoms. The medications they use are proven to help reduce cravings as well. Your counselor will help you figure out where your addictive behaviors started. They’ll give you better ways to cope with stress and challenges.

Once your body is substance-free, you’ll become part of their outpatient program. A vital part of recovery is connecting with others who are facing similar challenges. You’ll join a group for therapy. They become your support group as you share stories and encourage each other. Your family can come for sessions to heal past hurts, work through issues and learn better ways to communicate.
