At ALANA Recovery, we have built a reputation in the Atlanta metro area for providing quality outpatient treatment for substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. However, our staff is what truly drives our success and mission to help people break the cycle of addiction and lead their best lives. The ALANA Recovery staff is professional and qualified, but the compassionate, understanding care delivered every day is what creates an environment of healing and hope.
At ALANA Recovery, our team provides all levels of behavioral health support—from medical to clinical to educational and even after treatment is completed. We want to see our clients thrive, and helping you or a loved one is our mission and passion. In fact, several of our ALANA Recovery team are themselves in long-term recovery, which gives them a unique perspective on your addiction treatment.
With locations in Atlanta and Kennesaw, we are ready to help you or a loved one regain control of your life and find healing and recovery. Call 770.759.7474 to learn more about ALANA Recovery or start your journey today.
