Caron Atlanta Programs
At Caron Atlanta, we provide a variety of outpatient services designed to guide individuals and families toward lasting recovery. Our evidence-based programs include comprehensive assessments, intensive outpatient groups for teens and adults, individual counseling, family support and innovative neurotherapy treatments. With a compassionate and experienced team, we tailor our care to meet the unique needs of each patient, offering the tools and resources necessary for long-term success.
Comprehensive Drug and Alcohol Assessments
Caron believes that the most effective substance use disorder treatment is individualized, which is why our patients undergo a comprehensive evaluation process. A licensed therapist conducts the assessment to learn about the patient’s health, psychosocial history, maladaptive behaviors, and co-occurring mental health and addictive disorders.
Based on the findings, the treatment team recommends the level of care most likely to help patients achieve wellness and long-term recovery. Depending on the patient, counselors may recommend outpatient treatment at Caron Atlanta, inpatient treatment at one of Caron’s residential campuses, or mental health services.

Neurotherapy Services
Substance use and addiction, like other emotional and behavioral challenges, is a physical issue. The brain and nervous system can malfunction, as the heart does lead to chronic cardiac conditions. Those brain malfunctions can cause or contribute to addiction, anxiety, and depression, among others.
Neurotherapy can transform the way your brain and nervous system function so that you can manage substance use/addiction, anxiety, depression, traumatic brain injury, ADHD, sleep disorders, and other brain-related issues and increase well-being.
Our neurotherapy specialist starts by creating and analyzing your brain map to see what areas of your brain could benefit from treatment. Much like a personal trainer develops a fitness plan, the specialist then develops a treatment plan to optimize brain function. Integrative neurotherapies include:
-
Neurofeedback to help the brain to retrain its electrical patterns for better functioning
-
Alpha-Stim therapy (cranial electrical stimulation to promoted calmer electrical signals in the nervous system
Recovery Services
Caron’s Recovery Services assist patients as they transition into recovery, particularly for challenging times like transitioning from residential treatment to home. Services include screenings, My Recovery Connection, stabilization, family meetings, and recovery coaching. These services are available to anyone who needs them, even if they did not have treatment at Caron.
Aviation Assessment Program
For those who have been referred by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) because of a potentially aero-medical disqualifying condition, this assessment will determine the next steps to take, including whether additional treatment is needed, what type of treatment may be necessary, and whether a follow-up evaluation will be required.
After the assessment, the staff addiction psychiatrist will provide a summary of his findings with recommendations for next steps that may include treatment, medication, therapy, and/or monitoring, and send it to the FAA. An FAA medical examiner follows up with the recommendation for next steps.
