    When Talbott Recovery opened its doors in the 1980s, we knew that the best way to serve our patients was to be the best at our specialty, to listen carefully to patients, to study our results and to invite family members into the treatment process. Learn More

Healthcare Professionals Program

678-251-3189
"Professionals should be treated with their peers. The shame and blame professionals experience goes well beyond what other alcoholics experience – we’re supposed to know all the answers. To recover, we need to be in the presence of other professionals." Dr. Douglas Talbott, Co-Founder

Talbott Recovery’s Professionals Program has earned a national reputation for the identification and comprehensive treatment of addiction and co-occurring psychiatric disorders such as depression, anxiety, unresolved grief, personality difficulties, etc.

Over our 35+ year history, more than 6,000+ healthcare professionals from all 50 states, Canada and Europe have come to Talbott Recovery for professional evaluation and, when indicated, treatment.

In the Healthcare Professionals Program our staff works with each patient to develop an individualized treatment plan based on their clinical needs. Patients are housed in a gender-specific residential apartment, surrogate family setting. This setting heals the isolation, loneliness, and behavioral problems that every addict or alcoholic develops over the course of their disease. Group therapy is the cornerstone of change in all of our programs; we believe recovery cannot occur alone.

Meet Our Team

Each patient is assigned an attending physician upon admission to Talbott Recovery. The physicians at Talbott Recovery are Psychiatrists, Internal Medicine Specialists, or Addictionologists. All are certified by the American Board of Addiction Medicine (ABAM). The other members of a patient’s treatment team are: Psychiatrist/Internist, Case Manager, Family Counselor, Continuing Care Coordinator, Spiritual Counselor, Clinical Associate, and Nutritionist.

Levels of Care

  • Detoxification & Stabilization

    Inpatient stabilization is available for patients requiring a more complicated detoxification and/or behavioral containment to interrupt the downhill spiral of his/her addiction.

  • Treatment Planning — 72-Hour Assessment

    When clinically indicated, a 72-Hour Assessment provides a full multidisciplinary evaluation of an individual. Each patient is assessed and undergoes a thorough evaluation. The evaluation assesses the patient’s physical, psychiatric, psychological, social, spiritual, and family needs to determine the most appropriate level of care.

  • Campus Phase — Partial Hospitalization (PHP) with Recovery Residences

    Following admission or transfer from detox and stabilization, each patient undergoes a thorough evaluation if he/she has not obtained an evaluation previously. The evaluation assesses the patient’s physical, psychiatric, psychological, social, spiritual, and family needs to determine the most appropriate level of care.

  • Mirror Image Phase — Mirror Image Program with Recovery Residences

    After completing the Campus Phase of treatment, we frequently recommend that patients be transitioned to Talbott Recovery’s Mirror Image Phase for an additional 4 1⁄2 weeks. This is usually recommended for individuals who have co-occurring psychiatric conditions, personality related issues, grief, trauma, partner relationship issues, family of origin concerns, sexual or other behavioral issues, licensing and professional concerns, or legal issues.

    Mirror Image is an addiction treatment innovation created and first implemented by Talbott Recovery founder G. Douglas Talbott, M.D. Mirror Image participants go to other treatment facilities in the Atlanta area and work with newly admitted patients in those drug and alcohol treatment programs. The purpose is to assist Talbott Recovery patients in overcoming the myopia that often accompanies the disease of addiction. What Dr. Talbott knew was that patients can see the effects of the disease of addiction in others but are unable to see those same effects in themselves. This innovative program allows patients to gain new insight, and they consistently report that their experience in Mirror Image has had a profound effect on their recovery.

    Participants take part in Mirror Image in the mornings, five days a week and then return to Talbott Recovery for afternoon groups and appointments with our physicians and clinicians.

“We at Talbott Recovery pride ourselves in offering state-of-the-art treatment of addictive disorders using the medical model. We individualize the treatment to the unique needs of every patient. We treat the whole person as a ‘human being’ and not an addictive diagnosis.” Navjyot Singh Bedi, M.D.Talbott Recovery Medical Director

Family Program Supporting Image

Family Program

The family services department at Talbott Recovery provides patients and families with support and education on the disease of addiction, cross addiction, and the impact on the family. The Family Program is designed to assess the family’s needs, educate about chemical dependence, and offer ongoing family therapy during and/or after the patient’s treatment. The family program is the first step many addicted families make towards healing. Once a patient is admitted to Talbott Recovery, a family counselor is assigned to respond to any questions or concerns.

Extensive family workshop for each patient’s family that’s offered on a monthly basis. These workshops are conducted over 3 days and include 11 lectures and 6 processing groups specifically for our families. The workshop provides education on the disease of addiction and cross addiction and offers an opportunity to address questions and concerns.

  • Gather collateral information and provide written and verbal updates to referents
