About Mending Hearts

Mending Hearts is a residential treatment program designed for women at risk of homelessness who are struggling with substance use and co-occurring disorders. Founded in 2004, this organization is dedicated to creating a therapeutic community that promotes healing for all women, regardless of their financial situation.
Mending Hearts provides a comprehensive approach to treatment, offering medical detox and medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for women who are experiencing withdrawals. Clients are also screened for co-occurring disorders to ensure they receive the essential care needed for sustained recovery. Treatment services include individual and group sessions, family therapy, skill-building groups, and Twelve Step facilitation. In addition to the residential program, Mending Hearts provides community living, independent living, day treatment (PHP), and intensive outpatient programs (IOP) to ensure that clients continue to receive support even after their discharge.
Mending Hearts accepts most major insurance plans and is a grantee of the Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services.

The transitional living program has an admission fee of $100 and a weekly fee of $135, whereas the independent living program has an admission fee of $100 and a weekly fee of $135.

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year.

Understanding Your Treatment Options

Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.

Mending Hearts offers 2 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.

The facility utilizes 8 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Family Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.

Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, most commercial insurance plans are required to cover substance abuse treatment. Mending Hearts works with 24 insurance providers. Call (833) 567-5838 to verify your specific coverage and learn about out-of-pocket costs before admission.
