About The Jericho House

The Jericho House is a faith-based, long-term residential recovery program for men struggling with substance use disorder. The facility grounds their teachings and treatments in Christian values and practices. They’re housed in the scenic Sautee Valley of Sautee Nacoochee, north of the Sautee Nacoochee Center and south of Anna Ruby Falls in White County, Georgia.

Empowering Men Towards Lasting Healing

While onsite, you’ll attend intensive individual and group therapy sessions where you’ll share your struggles and learn ways you can cope with your addiction. Counselors will be able to help you identify what’s contributing to your addiction and understand your triggers. Group sessions will allow you to draw strength from shared experiences with your peers.

Healing Through Spiritual Growth and Life Skills Training

You’ll also engage in Bible study, prayer meetings and worship sessions to strengthen your faith in God and deepen your commitment to recovery. The program also weaves in life skills training like budgeting, time management and communication.

Work therapy and community service are an additional integral component of the program. The focus will be teaching you job-readiness skills to rejoin the workforce and lessons on discipleship and servant leadership, which can help further build confidence in your recovery.

The facility’s location offers convenient access to multiple major attractions in the area such as Sautee Nacoochee Indian Mound, Unicoi State Park & Lodge, and Tallulah Gorge. You can do activities such as birdwatching and hiking as a means of relieving your stress and avoiding substance use.

Took our $2000 then 1 day in said the kid we were sponsoring was not a candidate because of his mental health issues which were well known beforehand by them. No refund, not one dime. We were trying to do the godly thing and help this kid out and asked repeatedly before we gave any money if they were sure they could take his issues. Also started out as $1200 then when he got there turned into $2000. We feel scammed. At least could have refunded us some as we payed for the first 30 days.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

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.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

inpatient iconInpatient
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

A quality drug rehab in Georgia can help you overcome addiction. This environment is designed to help you address the complex issues contributing to drug dependence. The goal of treatment is to give you the tools you need to make a full recovery.

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

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.

Programs

Adult Program
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.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

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.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

God used the Jericho House to miraculously save my brother’s life. I am so thankful for places such as this who press in to get to the heart issues and root of addiction. It’s never going to be a quick and easy fix, and the staff at the Jericho House invested the time & love into my brother to where he genuinely is a new creation in Christ Jesus! Don’t lose hope for your loved ones. Their life can be restored. In God’s time… not our own. Thank you Jericho House for truly being the hands and feet of Jesus.

My son was here for a year. WE loved the staff. The location. Everyone was family. I liked the idea the guys come and go a lot. Some to jobs. Many activities to keep them busy. They all help each other-brotherhood. The weekends are relaxed. Family time. Time to unwind. Always church. Only God can change your heart and heal your wounds. I will always be grateful for Larry and Kevin and the younger staff. They are so passionate about their healing work. It isn't a job...it is a rescue mission. My son has been recovered 3 years. Addict's have their trials but he is "hanging in there." Thanks Jericho House.
