Promises Atlanta provides people with substance use disorders and mental health conditions a place to heal and a path to thrive. Located in Dacula, Georgia and serving the greater Atlanta area, care includes medically supervised detox, residential treatment, and step-down support through a partial hospitalization program (PHP), intensive outpatient program (IOP), and outpatient therapy. The program emphasizes rediscovering identity, rebuilding relationships, and creating a future that feels worth protecting.

Add Recovery Skills Into Daily Life

Promises Atlanta uses a standardized curriculum so patients and staff share the same language of recovery. Skills are reinforced in therapy, nursing check-ins, and daily support, helping patients steady emotions, shift unhelpful thought patterns, and practice healthier communication. Treatment may include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing (MI), with medical and psychiatric care available when needed.

Recharge in Calm, Inviting Spaces

Promises Atlanta’s residential setting is designed for comfort and routine, with air-conditioned rooms and private or shared lodging options. Daily meals are provided on-site, and shared spaces include bright, spacious lounges for downtime between scheduled activities. A fitness center supports regular movement, while indoor recreation like table tennis and a pool table adds low-key ways to unwind. Outside, shaded seating areas and walking paths create space to reset during the day.

Continue Care with Confidence

Recovery continues after residential treatment through a clear transition plan and step-down care. Promises Atlanta coordinates next steps based on clinical needs and daily responsibilities, which may include PHP, IOP, or outpatient therapy through Promises ALANA. Discharge planning can include relapse-prevention planning, continued mental health care when needed, and connections to community resources. The Rooted alumni community also offers ongoing connection after discharge.

Access 24/7 Nursing and Medical Care
Promises Atlanta provides coordinated medical and psychiatric care alongside addiction treatment, including medication management when needed.

Care Options

Levels of Care

Substance use and mental health issues can occur simultaneously or as primary conditions. Effective treatment explores how mental health conditions contribute to addiction, and vice-versa. Many rehabs treat substance use disorders and mental health conditions with personalized care plans.
Included
Residential
Residential programs for substance use and mental health with structured care and 24/7 monitoring. Treatment takes place on-site, with behavioral health professionals often providing care in group, individual, and family settings.
Not included
Sober Living
Not Offered at This Center
Transitional housing designed to support individuals recovering from substance use disorders offering a safe, supportive and structured environment for practicing long-term sobriety, while reintegrating back into daily living.
Included
Day Treatment
In a PHP, patients live at home but follow an intensive schedule of treatment. Most programs require you to be on-site for about 40 hours per week.
Included
Intensive Outpatient Program
An intensive outpatient program (IOP) falls between inpatient care and traditional outpatient services, with therapy and skills-building activities designed to support recovery and provide flexibility. IOP is ideal for those needing support but not the 24/7 care of a residential facility.
Included
Outpatient
Outpatient treatment offers flexible therapeutic and medical care without the need to stay overnight in a hospital or inpatient facility. Outpatient care typically offers a range of therapies and medical interventions individuals can attend alongside daily life.
Not included
Virtual & In-Home Care
Not Offered at This Center
The delivery of therapeutic services utilizing technology such as video conferencing, online messaging or phone calls, allowing for flexibility, comfort and increased access to care.
Included
Licensed Primary Mental Health

Included
Co-Occurring Disorders
