Welcome to Recovery Works

Drug & Alcohol Rehab Center John’s Creek Georgia

Recovery Works is not a one size fits all program.  Drawing on mindfulness practices, trauma informed care, and the works of Dr. Charles Whitfield.  Recovery works offers a unique program to help heal past trauma and emerge a new and empowered person.  While the 12 Step Philosophy is respected, out clients have access to a much broader tapestry of recovery programs to draw from.  From Celebrate Recovery in our Christian Track to Recovery Dharma on our Eastern Track we realize that no single form of treatment is successful for everyone.

Our program is holistic in orientation but quality care for co-occuring disorders is avaialable through on site consultation with a psychiatrist.
