Focus

This center treats substance use disorders and mental health conditions. You'll receive individualized care catered to your unique situation and diagnosis, learn practical skills for recovery, and make new connections in a restorative environment.

Recovery Ranch pairs skilled clinical care for substance use and a wide range of mental-health conditions with a warm approach that actually feels like coming home. They offer residential/inpatient care and outpatient options so people can begin in a safe, structured setting and step down into ongoing support as they strengthen recovery. It’s not just about getting sober—The Ranch centers treatment on helping people rebuild the relationships and everyday life they care about. Their skills-based approach gives clients practical tools, from learning to regulate their bodies and manage intense emotions to concrete relapse-prevention and life-skills work. With over 30 days of tailored care, plus webinars and ongoing support, clients walk away with a real toolkit and a supportive community behind them. The program is designed so clients leave feeling capable and ready for what life throws them. Only 45 minutes from Nashville, The Ranch’s flagship feels like a cozy village where every residence offers privacy and comfort. Golf carts and vans whisk clients between therapy, fresh-air breaks, and the shared, home-cooked meals they help create. Over 30 days of programming—plus a ropes course, zipline, and heart-opening group exercises—EMDR-trained therapists guide trauma groups that help clients rebuild hope. At Recovery Ranch, aftercare is a warm hand offered as clients step back into everyday life: regular check-ins, coaching to strengthen coping skills, connections to peers who understand the wins and the struggles, and practical tools to rebuild work, family, and joy. It keeps clients rooted in purpose and celebrates the small wins that become long-term change. Most importantly, it reminds them they don't have to carry this alone.
