EXCELLENT Based on 40 reviews Julie Bice2025-01-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The entire staff is amazing and it is apparent daily they genuinely care each client. Their passion and mission come across in the way they help and interact with each person. I would recommend this treatment center to anyone, especially for IOP. Each group is fun, educational and led by talented leaders, therapists and staff. It definitely, however, is NOT a "luxury" treatment facility. If luxury housing is important their IOP might be a better fit. Tamara, Laura, Pearl Erin, Jillian and everyone I came in contact with are class acts. Their genuine concern along with their intelligence, compassion and professionalism were FIVE STARS. The program taught me so much and put me on track to live the life I was meant to have. Addiction is a complex brain disease. It is cunning and baffling- BBH research based methods and true care for the needs of each client were priceless. Travis Martin2024-07-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was at buckhead behavioral recently and all and all the program seemed to work for me. Lydia, Tamara, Carley and Summer are very helpful to my needs. Carley Is the best therapist there hands down she can relate to me bc she's an addict and has the science behind it as well. One thing I disagree with buckhead is that for people really trying to further there recovery journey should In time give a housing manager position for someone that doesn't have mommy and daddy money. NAHL MUHAMMAD AZHAR2024-05-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So comfortable Carlin Harderman2024-03-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great program. Larsz Woody2024-01-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Emerging from treatment, I was riding that pink cloud, stoked about my sober journey. BBH not only helped solidify the essential coping skills needed but also guided me in real-time as I rebuilt relationships with family, friends, and colleagues. Two years later, the lessons I picked up there are still the backbone of my sobriety journey. Grateful for every step. 🌈 #SobrietyStrong Ryan Jam2024-01-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I appreciate BBH's advice and knowledge; their assistance has been crucial to my road toward mental wellness. Very warm and welcoming also. Casey Gant2024-01-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Buckhead is an absolutely amazing place! The facility is beautiful and the staff go above and beyond in everything they do!! Bridgett Henley2023-11-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was scared at first because I never left home for treatment. I can say that the staff was amazing. I got all the tools I needed to stay clean and sober. I give praise to my lord and savior also BBH. I have 166 days clean. I recommend anyone who dealing with NA or AA to come to BBH. I love BBH
