Mind Body Optimization - Knoxville

Mind+Body Optimization is an outpatient program promoting overall wellness for adults and adolescents using innovative therapies combined with clinical modalities and evidence-based methods. Their Knoxville location specializes in private 1-on-1 therapy, an intensive outpatient program, psychiatry services and medication management, and mental health or recovery coaching. Their holistic, dual-diagnosis program offers personalized treatment for mental health conditions, substance abuse, and co-occurring disorders.

Primary Mental Health Treatment

Mind+Body provides personalized care and quality treatment in a healing and interactive outpatient environment. They offer services including 1:1 counseling, psychiatry, and innovative treatments such as eye movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for conditions such as anxiety and depression, bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Psychiatrists prescribe effective medications such as antidepressants and mood stabilizers for individuals in need. Counseling provides 1:1 talk-based and evidence-based therapy, and also offers couples and family counseling sessions. Mental health services are available for patients of all ages who may be experiencing prolonged feelings of sadness, severe anxiety, intense anger, issues coping with daily life, suicidal ideation and self-harm, hallucinations, excessive worrying, sudden or severe mood swings, and more.

Substance Abuse and Co-Occurring Disorders

The intensive outpatient program (IOP) at Mind+Body is designed to treat individuals with substance abuse or co-occurring disorders, and also offers a specialized treatment track for problem drinking. Experienced and compassionate staff address and explore risk factors for substance abuse and co-occurring disorders such as genetics, environment, and mental health. IOP offers individualized care that typically is on set days for upwards of 20 hours per week. Treatment may consist of individual counseling, group therapy sessions and medical care or medications for any mental or overall health concerns. The number of hours spent in treatment decreases over time until the client feels ready to end IOP and begin an aftercare program.

Substance abuse with co-occurring disorders are treated simultaneously, allowing clients to explore and treat underlying contributing factors with a range of proven methods while addressing their substance misuse. Co-occurring mental health disorders treated may include anxiety disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), depressive disorders, mood disorders, eating disorders, and trauma related disorders such as PTSD.

Innovated Treatment Methods

In addition to cutting-edge, innovative treatment methods such as EMDR and TMS, Mind+Body also offers ketamine therapy. Ketamine therapy may be an option for mental health conditions such as severe or prolonged depression, anxiety or social anxiety disorders, and PTSD that has not responded to more traditional treatment methods. It is used in addition to treatment methods such as talk therapy or group counseling, providing ongoing support for clients as they develop coping skills as ketamine therapy provides relief from symptoms. Ketamine therapy is shown to help additional treatment methods be more effective, with therapeutic effects often occurring within hours of the treatment session.

Aftercare services offer mental health or recovery coaches, offering personalized guidance, accountability, and encouragement and support as individuals reintegrate into their daily lives and work toward emotional regulation, coping strategies, and long-term success in recovery.

Mind+Body Optimization in Knoxville offers individuals expert guidance with accredited counselors, a comprehensive and holistic approach, and tools and coping strategies for managing stress, overcoming obstacles, and finding life balance. They are a Joint Commission accredited facility.
