Alcoholism & Drug Addiction Treatment Center

“The stone that the builder refused will always be the head cornerstone …” – Bob Marley

It’s always darkest just before the dawn.

When the black night of addiction has blotted out any ray of light, know this: There is a way back into the sun, with the guidance of those who have traversed those desolate landscapes.

At Cornerstone of Recovery, we know the misery that is your constant companion. Since 1989, we’ve provided that guidance as one of the premier addiction treatment centers in the nation; many of our staff members are in recovery themselves and once lived as all suffering addicts do: helpless, hopeless and lost. Through recovery, they’ve found a new way to live, and together with trained clinical staff members from all disciplines, they’re carrying the message to those who still suffer.

Cornerstone, located in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee, provides a place where substance abuse and mental health issues can be addressed head on, so that healing may begin. Our programs are based on the Bio-Psycho-Social-Spiritual model of treatment and the 12 Step approach to recovery, and we pride ourselves on the individualized treatment plans we develop for each and every patient, the goals of which are to dispel the darkness of their disease and allow that individual to function as a responsible, productive member of society.

We provide medical detox services that allow our patients to safely withdraw from drugs and alcohol, and the therapeutic elements of our program include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Integration Training (AAIT), Schema Therapy, Family Therapy, Individual and Group Therapy, Activity Therapy, Fitness, Chronic Pain Management and Psychoeducational groups and lectures. Each patient will be involved in individual and group therapy with a master’s level therapist, in addition to other processing groups that offer counselor and peer support.

If you’ve found yourself here, know this: You don’t have to suffer any longer. There is a way out, and we can help you leave that darkness behind forever. With comprehensive treatment, your addiction can come to an end, and a new day is just over the horizon. Please, reach out to us, let us evaluate your situation and permit us to help you recover.
