Safe, Compassionate Drug Rehab & Recovery Support
At The Carter Treatment Center, we support individuals recovering from alcohol, opioid and opiate addiction, cocaine, benzodiazepines, and other substance use disorders through compassionate, structured outpatient care. Our partial hospitalization program (PHP) and intensive outpatient program (IOP) are designed to meet you where you are. We combine evidence-based therapy, clinical oversight, and individualized treatment plans to help you build a lasting recovery with confidence.
Substances We Treat at Our Alpharetta Center:
Stopping drugs or alcohol without medical supervision can be dangerous, especially if you have been using alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, or other substances that can cause significant withdrawal symptoms. Before beginning outpatient treatment, our team will complete a thorough assessment to determine whether outpatient care is appropriate or whether a higher level of medical support is needed.
If you can begin treatment safely on an outpatient basis, we’ll help you manage the transition with clinical support, ongoing monitoring, and a personalized treatment plan. If withdrawal symptoms are likely to require 24-hour medical supervision, we’ll refer you to an appropriate inpatient medical detox program before helping you transition into outpatient care at The Carter Treatment Center.
Whether you’re ready to begin treatment now or aren’t sure what level of care you need, our team will guide you through the process. Learn more about our outpatient detox program and contact us for a confidential assessment to determine the safest place to begin your recovery.
