About Spero Health
Spero Health in Lenoir City, Tennessee provides substance use recovery for adults struggling with opioid, stimulant, and alcohol use disorders. The center offers a combination of options and recovery support services designed to treat the whole person. Spero Health’s integrated care model addresses both substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions, helping clients balance recovery with daily life.
Medications for Withdrawal
Treatment begins with an initial screening and a physician visit to create a personalized recovery plan. Clients typically attend one to three visits per week during the first 90 days, combining medication management, individual and group counseling, and recovery support.
The clinic uses medication-assisted treatment with options including buprenorphine and monthly injectable naltrexone (Vivitrol) to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms. This service can be beneficial for helping guests relax and focus on their recovery without uncomfortable distractions that could hinder treatment.
Challenging Behavior Patterns
Behavioral health counseling, peer support, and practical assistance with employment, housing, and healthcare help clients build a foundation for long-term recovery and address co-occurring mental health challenges. They have time to reflect and discover negative behaviors that may not be conducive to a life of sobriety.
Clients may develop healthier coping methods, recognize substance use triggers and avoid relapse issues after treatment. The center offers treatment for pregnant women with OB/GYN coordination included.
They accept most commercial insurance including Medicaid (TennCare), and self-pay for uninsured clients.

Other Forms of Payment
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal. The length of stay at the detoxification program is determined according to the specific needs of the patient.
Treatments
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
Programs
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
Clinical Services
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
