Best North Carolina Drug Rehab Centers

Next Step Recovery changed, and saved my life. What a gift! The level of care, knowledge, understanding, guidance, and love made my treatment an amazing experience. The entire staff helped me believe in myself. I will hold onto all of the recovery skills I learned, and apply them in every aspect of my life. I have a healthy new beginning, and I’m so excited to take my next steps! -JE

Next step saved my family!!!

The 90 days I spent at Next Step Recovery may very well be the most important decision of my life. Dealing with substance abuse most of my life then achieving sobriety for a decade and then losing it again. I've spent 5 years trying to get back to where I was but just kept failing. In desperation I came to Next Step for 30 days of treatment and later decided to complete a full 90 days of treatment. Next Step is simply different. The program and its environment were perfect for my needs. The staff is incredible and truly care. All their therapists are second to none. The housing environment blew my expectations away with a comfortable home (not a compound) combination of safety and recovery while maintaining many freedoms like going to the gym, grocery shopping and cooking, river rafting, walks through beautiful Asheville. I even got a cool job towards the end. Next Step just offered this incredible treatment program while offering the supported opportunity to to practice normal life with out substance abuse. Not really how I imagined this "treatment". experience would be. No it was ten times better! Most relaxed I've ever been in a long time. Months later im back home with my family and everything thing is going great! And when things are not great I can handle it using the tools that Next Step gave me. Still rockin it! Thanks so much to you all J

The Blanchard Institute has saved my family! Myself and another family member have been through the programs and are about to “graduate.” I cannot recommend TBI highly enough! Their unique strategic family programming takes all the shame & blame off of those in the program and focuses on the family as a system and how to recreate function out of dysfunction. If you or a loved one wants or needs help, this program goes far beyond a 28-day treatment plan and empowers everyone in your inner circle to make positive choices which leads to positive changes in behavior which then leads to long- term recovery, growth and lifetime of success! ~Kristin K

I’ve never experienced the knowledge of why I am the way I am. I now understand! Scientific research, evidence based research and individual staff experiences has given me the opportunity, confidence and knowledge to move forward.

Great place, and totally recommend. Not only recovery for the individual, but also support for the family.

Ashville recovery center was a great place. I was there for eight weeks. I was able to learn a lot about myself. The community is a great place As well as the staff members. They make you feel heard and cared for. If you are struggling with an addiction, I definitely suggest coming to Asheville recovery center.

Friendly staff. Helpful classes

A great place to go if u need help with drug abuse and alcohol. I love the staff they are the best

great CEU's

I thoroughly enjoyed the presentation today.

Dilworth provides the gold standard of treatment!

Allie Bell is amazing she listens to me she understands the problems I have. And I am very pleased with the way she takes care of me,she has got me feeling a lot better than I used to be. I know I still have a long way to go but I know that with her I'm going to get there all doctors should be like her. I also started with my new therapist and I know it's only been one session but I believe that she's going to be an awesome fit she seems to care quite a bit and she has already got short-term goals set up for me and went over them with me and I'm very pleased with her as well

Staff is very understanding

Dr. Mchale saved my life. Thank you.

Pavillon is one of the MOST trusted treatment centers I've ever come across for addiction recovery in the mental health industry! I've never been so blown away by the care of their clinical team. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for inpatient, residential care for someone looking to heal from their substance use addiction!

Coming up on two years clean, sober, and tobacco free. It all started at Pavillon and I am forever grateful for the care, kindness, and counseling I received there.

Saved my life. Full Stop.

Nurse Nancy and Dr. Strahl are amazing. They really take the time to help you. They sure have myself.

Such a great place. The providers are always nice :)

Southeastern Recovery Center is a safe and nurturing environment, with staff that cares and has built their program to instill confidence, strength and hope for the future.

Amazing facility and great staff! Everyone is so professional and work hard to understand your needs. Cady in particular was a great help!

Genuine care from the staff who just want you to be your best self and help along the way. Cannot recommend them and in particular, Cady, enough!

This place is wonderful! I have been to several other detox & inpatient programs and Freedom Detox & Recovery Center in Gastonia NC has helped me more than any other place i've been to. For real. The folks who work there are extremely knowledgeable about substance abuse recovery. Very nice, clean & comfortable facility. Great food. Great aftercare help. Most importantly, the people who work there really care about the individual and are truly interested in helping. I am a testimony to that. AWESOME experience!

If you are serious about wanting to live a better life in recovery, it starts here..in my personal experience I have not met a facility quite like freedom, the staff is solid, and it’s a nice facility with a good balance of privileges and structure.

This place helped save my life! The staff is extremely patient, knowledgeable, friendly, and they truly care for the people coming in and leaving. They are VERY clean and accommodating. I'll never forget the ones that helped kickstart my sobriety journey that I'm still on to this day, almost a full year after leaving there. I'm now a living testimony, and a role model to my own family who is also about to start her journey with them tomorrow!

All the staff at Brighter Start are awesome and always make you feel at home. There is someone here to fix any problem or help you find someone who can. You never leave without your cup overflowing. Special Shoutout to Ben Davis, who will always keep you coming back!

Brighter Start helped me in so many ways. I was fresh from prison, new to Wilmington, only a few months clean from being on drugs for 10 years. I was starting from nothing and scared to death. Never talked about the baggage I had been carrying for so long. All the pain and all the anger was why I stayed on drugs. Colten, Todd and Sarah are the absolute best at what they do! Being able to finally let go of all the weight that held me down was a blessing that I’ll always cherish. I worked hard and stayed focused determined to get my life back. I’m a year and a half clean, have my own place, brand new truck, a job that keeps me busy an all thanks to Brighter Start. I wouldn’t be where I am today if it weren’t for them! 🩵🩷🩵🩷🩵

Brighter Start has been a true blessing in my life. Everyone from start to finish has a genuine heart to see people be better. They actually take the time to care for people who are ill which can lead to the use of drugs, alcohol, etc.. So I’m glad I was able to learn about myself, and get healing for myself that way when those tough times come I know how to navigate through life in a healthy way. I’m better because of this place. S/O everybody! I would type names but I don’t want to miss anyone because it was truly a team effort, and everybody worked together to push me, and get me to where I am, and where I’m going! It’s UP from here! 👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

I have been to both the detox and rehab side of ADACT. I had a good experience. I felt welcomed and the staff is great especially Kelly, she goes above and beyond for the patients. The doctors and therapist helped me stabilize my meds.The classes were great too i learned different ways to cope and retrain my brain to start good habits to replace the bad. As an addict I felt like I was somewhere I could relate to my issues that not everyone can understand. Coming out of a toxic marriage that led to my addiction and mental health it was good to be somewhere different and around new people to get away from my usual triggers and start to take the first step to recovery and living a healthy life. When I finished they guided me in the right direction to continue staying on track for my recovery.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Life-Changing Experience — Forever Grateful Julian F. Keith Alcohol and Drug Abuse Treatment Center was the turning point in my life. After attending five different rehabs, I arrived here in 2020 feeling lost and uncertain if lasting change was possible. But this place—this team—changed everything for me. From the moment I walked through the doors, the front office staff greeted me with kindness and dignity. The nurses were compassionate and attentive, the recovery coaches and counselors truly listened, and the education team made learning feel meaningful again. My therapist was nothing short of life-changing—she helped me dig deeper and start healing in ways I never thought possible. Even the cafeteria staff made an impact. They didn’t just serve meals—they served encouragement with every plate, and their warmth stayed with me daily. Because of Julian F. Keith, I began to believe in myself again. Today, I’m proud to say I’ve earned my associate’s and bachelor’s degrees, and I’m now finishing my master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Substance Use Disorders, with a focus on trauma and gender identity. I’m also a North Carolina Board Certified Peer Support Specialist, giving back to others just like me—because someone once did the same for me here. This center helped me reimagine my future and reconnect with my purpose. I will always carry gratitude in my heart for what they gave me. I genuinely believe that without their guidance, structure, and compassion, I would not be where I am today. Thank you to every single person at Julian F. Keith. You changed my life. —Jennifer Nicole Brooks

JFK is a wonderful place to go whether its your first time going to treatment or your 10th time. They always welcome you with open arms. Their is no judgment. Every patient is treated with the upmost respect and Dignity that they never get to experience in their regular lives. I get emotional talking about the staff there. They are the most kind hearted accepting and warm people I've ever met. I cannot express how much I appreciate everyone who works there. Please call them and ask about a bed if you need help, they will immediately start working on getting you a bed. I wouldn't go to any other treatment center in Western NC

I went to Structure House in 2019. I can’t say enough about it. It helped me get into shape with the exercise classes and equipment. It helped me to develop healthy eating habits and because I stayed the whole month, I was able to stop my sweet cravings. In addition the classes taught me some great skills to catch myself when I want to go back to bad habits. I am actually 20lbs lighter now then when I was when I left (144lbs) and now in my husband has lost weight from the skills I learnt when there. My diabetes is a little better. So thankful for Structure House!

It was my first visit and I'm already planning to return next year. Staff is outstanding and I have made significant improvements to my health. There is something for everyone here. Whether you are looking to improve your physical and/or mental health, you will find experts here to assist in your journey. I highly recommend Structure House.

One of the best investments I've made in a long time was to spend 4 weeks in a total health and wellness immersion at Structure House. I tapped into my greatest and most authentic self while there with my wife. Total body, mind and spirit work. Life changing and transformative. I highly recommend that anyone and everyone give this gift to themselves. You will reset, recharge, rejuvenate, reawaken, rediscover, and retransform. They offer a lecture series entitled, "Digging Deeper" by Life Coach Dr. Lacy Frazier. Wow is all I can say! A must visit experience.

I’m the Mother of a son who blossomed there and lived the help he received. Thank God for these Bethel Colony Angels😇🙏

Applying for Bethel Colony of Mercy was the first stop in the steps I’ve taken to turn my life around from a life style of very many colors and wrong choices. The staff and guidance that are involved with this Christ recovery transformation center are beyond immaculate. Without those individuals one on one advisory, classroom lessons, daily tasks, genuine fellowship, and of course the power of God I wouldn’t be making the right choices now to be reunited with my loved ones. Or, have my life together by any means of doing this “thing” called life all on my own. I am forever grateful for everyone that god placed into my life through making the decision to go to bethel colony of mercy 😇 Sending prayers to the women’s and men’s campus’ for their strength, unity, protection, faith, and healing. As well as to all of their loved ones who are or have been affected by any of the students, or student alumni's long suffering. May you all be blessed beyond measure with gods abundance. GOD HAS A GOOD PLAN FOR ALL OF HIS CHILDREN! Thank you Lord for all of your great works! “May the lord bless you, and keep you; The lord make his face shine on you. And be gracious to you. The LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.” Numbers 6:24-26

I can't thank Peggy Lombardo (Alumni Coordinator) enough for saving a family member's life. She befriended "Will" long before he was willing to seek help. He was never alone in life because she checked on him regularly and gently coaxed him into getting the help that he desperately needed. Approximately 7 months after reaching out, Will made the decision to better his life by accepting Peggy's offer of help. Once his decision was made, Peggy instantly started moving mountains to get him the help he needed. She was in daily contact with his family offering her advice, supplying helpful contact information, and even talking him through his fears when they became too great and he wanted to run. As a result of Peggy's unrelenting quest to help Will, he has received a Certificate of Completion from the Midwood Addiction Program where he received counseling, housing, a sense of community, independence, and gradually took control of his life again. A little over a month after graduating, Will has found employment and is ready to start this new healthy chapter in his life. When asked if he ever talks to Peggy anymore, the answer is "yes! she's full of valuable resources.". How do you thank someone who has saved the life of someone you thought was lost forever? There is no repayment plan that could ever be enough for this angel on earth. Peggy will always be our angel. She truly has an amazing gift and we are forever in her debt. XO

Great place! Coming into this I was a little skeptical about being treated well. The staff and therapist took their time with me, to tend to my needs as a new patient. I had some bumps along the way until I met Evie Dillard. She was so helpful to me by giving me extra resources to get ready to exit treatment. I’m talking about food, shelter and even information about great jobs. I started working, got a place to rest my and made great friend for life. Thank you so much, Evie.

Lemme tell you about the housing situation 1st. I read the good reviews and the horrible and the bad kinda concerned me. I can tell you the bad was not only exaggerated but most just someone salty and spreading total BS. There are no rodents and I've never been to a house that had zero bugs not even a fly before I got here, not even my father's house. Ok so these 2 floor some with a upper smoking/ lounge deck are nice nice! 4 bedroom 3 full double sink bathrooms , two with walk-in shower , I bath / shower and a half bath by living room. It's fully stocked with any pans coffee pot anything you need. The staff are some of the nicest ppl and you absolutely get to know them. You are treated pretty much how you treat them. Just be kind! Midwood center was the one I went to and the staff there are always awesome. If you need something just speak up, I've seen ppl come through and expect everyone to be mind readers. I would list everyone I love at Harmony but I'm horrible with names but there are standouts. Christine, Crystn (sik). Byron,Lisa, Miss Gail ( Amber always pushing DBT therapy 😬) Bobby, the tech who's name escapes me that calls everyone "Big Dog) And Lastly but firstly Miss Peggy who is the sweetest person I've ever met and she saved my life just by getting to know me calling my phone to talk to someone else. She had my back and actually drove to Salvation Army and helped me get insurance, talked me into Salvation Army in first place and bought my broke ass two packs of smokes She is absolutely a gift from God and deserves to be the highest paid at Harmony! But I'm betting she would do it for free No fear y'all this place is absolutely what you make it. Buddy Stovall

This place saved my life. I couldn’t get out of bed without using. Thanks for taking me out of the daily misery I felt stuck in.

I have been going to several different m.a.t. treatment places over the past ten years or so and had alot of different counselors at these clinics, but never have I had a counselor like the one at Greensboro New Season's, in the past they were all the same paper work pushers having you sign stuff quickly and go on your way. They gotta go through alot red tape, to make this happen. They are not really counselors at these places, but at this particular new season's I met a counselor named Mrs. Lisa. I can't think of her last name cause that's how everyone refers to her but mrs.lisa was a real counselor she asks questions then has questions about those questions she really cares she remembers you and what your talking about at first I didn't know how to take it like this lady sure is nosy, but she began to counsel me and help me with my marriage my kids my job and my family as a whole.She is a really caring person and changed the whole dynamics of my household she really doesn't know how much she has helped. I may have to relocate soon to another clinic and I am gonna miss this place. Hands down best clinic I have ever been to and I been to quite a few. If you need help give getting off opiods give methadone a try it changed my life for the better most definitely. GO- check out Greensboro New Season's they got alot of good people up there. SAVE YOUR LIFE.

Where do I even begin… A little over a year ago I decided I couldn’t go on anymore, and needed to change. My life sucked, my relationships were destroyed, always broke, and I was heavily addicted to fentanyl. Walking through those doors felt impossible, but it wasn’t, and I did it! Now I’m sober, healthy, rebuilding and eternally grateful to everyone that dedicates their life to helping others. It because of God and the people at New Seasons that I’m able to write this review today. THANK YOU! To anyone who’s looking into having a better life, trust in these people. You will not regret it! If you need help or just someone to talk to, my name is Caleb Shane Melton and you can find me on Facebook. Otherwise, call New Seasons and begin walking towards your new life today! Much love

Highly recommended. Caring services has been a blessing to me in so many ways. They provide food, counseling. They not only provide shelter and IOP classes, they also get me to medical appointments that I've neglected to go to for years. I truly was saved by this service and am forever thankful for their care. After 2 successful months, I got into a verbal argument with my housemate and we were both discharged so if you go, be careful and follow every rule to the T. Despite the disappointing ending, I still highly recommend caring services!

Staff are extremly compassionate and Empathetic!! For realz!

Saved my life...they teach u 90 in 90 Meaning make a meeting everyday Theyre counselor are loving ...mrs yates is an Angle and loves us she doesn't judge ir pass just what do u want 2 make it better ...u get out of it what u put into it.truly the Best experience ive ever had

Have been going to port for 6 years, I’m so glad they help me when I didn’t want to be help and pushed me to do better, and I have learned a lot about myself and tones of coping skills, and for that I will always be grateful ☺️

may the lady who works the front desk be as appreciated in her private life as she is in my heart. what a sweet angel.

Wonderful experience. All the staff treated me with dignity and respect.

The ten-week CASP program is one of the best Recovery programs in WNC. While other Pyramid programs are half full of people who were "pushed" there (by DSS, the Judge, their PO, their spouse) but CASP was full of 9 men who really want to stay clean. CASP also has their own grant funding, separate from other departments, which is why this program has so much respect in this area of the southeast.

Before coming to October Road, I felt completely hopeless. I had been through treatment for alcohol 15 times, often labeled a "chronic relapser." Failure and rejection became familiar companions, and life left me feeling scarred, broken, and too afraid to try again. But yesterday, I graduated. And for the first time in a long time, I felt surrounded by real love and respect. The support I received here was different—it was genuine, consistent, and life-changing. I’ve never felt more seen or valued. Now, I know I’ll always have a family at October Road. Today, I feel worthy. And that changes everything.

Marci and Liz are AWESOME!!!! Being in a house with 13 other females can be a challenge but the program itself is a really good program if you work it. You put effort into it and you will succeed and get what you need but if you halfass it it's not going to help. Staff was very compassionate and helpful. Food was AMAZING

I have been here for a long time and have 27 take homes. If u actually wanna get clean and not just use it bc u can’t find anything else than the place is good plus since getting a new head nurse “that we needed so bad” n when Anna was the director things have gotten much better. even tho Anna is not there anymore she got it together and it seems like the new director is following her lead, the only bad thing I can say about Baart is if someone skips line or being disrespectful and you say something then I would be punished by holding my take homes over my head while the other person who started the mess has no take home’s receive no kinda punishment.

Very professional staff. Medical staff always caring willing to help. I can't thank them enough for helping me.

I started going to BAART 5-6 years ago after struggling with opioid addiction for years and I personally feel as if it saved my life. . . But I wanted it to. There are some amazing people who work there and who truly care about the patients recovery and bettering their lives. There are the people who work the program to really get themselves better and then there's the ones who just use the methadone to "not be sick" or in withdrawl but still use/get high. I have recommended BAART to multiple people and have also helped a few people with starting g treatment here.

My expirence was great!! The staff and therapist did a great job the chefs was amazing and I feel my journey here was effective I would highly recommend silver ridge to anyone who is serious about recovery the scenary is amazing the groups are a plus and the staff are very attentive def five stars from me

Staff at Silver Ridge were very helpful in every aspect during my stay and recovery. I highly recommend there help to anyone needing any type of addiction resources ✌️

This place is fantastic! Note to future residents… make sure you bring extra towels/washcloths/handtowels. . You only get one of each and have to wash them yourself. Also, there is no yoga class as show on the website as shown on the website and equine therapy is only every other week and does not include riding but is still a wonderful experience. Tai Chi is not daily as it appears on the website but only once a week. It’s so wonderful. Trey the instructor is amazing. You only get one. I made some of the best friend here and definitely would recommend.
