As a parent or loved one, noticing changes in someone you care about can be heart-wrenching. You may find yourself wondering if what you’re seeing
Discovery Place is a 12 step spiritual retreat, not a conventional, insurance-based treatment center. Over the past 25 years of serving men, we’ve seen countless lives transformed through this proven process and guide our guests through the practical application of the 12 steps for long term sobriety and a life that is happy, joyous, and free.
The Discovery Place 12 Step Program consists of 3 phases:
30-day residential retreat that sets the stage for lifelong sobriety
Apply learnings in a safe, supervised environment with accountability
Transitional program to take responsibility for recovery and get back to life
Discovery Place has some of the best long term sobriety success rates in the country. Why? Because unlike many insurance-based programs, we build lasting community and connection: essentials to staying sober.
As recovering addicts ourselves, we know how difficult that can be. Our goal is to help as many men as possible through our insurance-free, non-profit spiritual retreat. By design, our pricing is in line with typical out of pocket deductible costs.

It doesn’t matter what time it is, Discovery Place is here and ready to help those impacted by addiction day or night. Whether it is 3 AM or 3 PM, you can start your recovery journey by reaching out to our rehab in the Nashville area.
Here are some common questions we get from addicts and their loved ones about getting clean and sober, how to pay for treatment, and what it’s like to come to Discovery Place.
You may be surprised by how much influence you actually have! Most of us came to Discovery Place because of decisions made by our loved ones. This is actually a big part of what we do. We were the fathers and sons in the same position as your fathers and sons. Call our drug rehab in Nashville and we will tell you about effective means of communication, emphasize expressions of love and concern, and answer any questions pertaining to your specific relationship.
If your loved one accepts the prospect of Discovery Place, it’s important to move quickly. We’ll help you with all the next steps. And if your loved one isn’t interested in accepting help, it’s a good time to consider the choices you can make to protect yourself and to prevent any actions that make a life of addiction comfortable and possible. It is also important to note that addiction interventions are often necessary to get individuals into treatment.
It’s true, our programs have produced long-term sobriety for 83% of participants. But you probably think what you have going on, or the details of your specific circumstance, are a recipe for failure. We felt that way too. Every one of us. Our disease not only tells us we don’t have a disease, but that we’re also the only ones on earth dealing with what we’re dealing with. Trust us. We were there. We can help. You are not alone, and you don’t have to live as though you are any longer.
It’s true, the prospect of taking 30 days away from daily life can be daunting. However, alcoholism and addiction are progressive illnesses – meaning the symptoms and their consequences tend to grow in severity. Unfortunately, you can’t afford not to focus your undivided attention upon your recovery. The tools, fellowship, and internal shift found in our program will equip you for dealing with life in an entirely new way.
When we are using and drinking, no matter what we think is true, we’re much more of a burden on our families than a source of support. Our programs, ranging from 30 days to one year, are designed to create long-term sobriety because reliability of character is what your loved ones need most. When you return home from our drug rehab in Nashville, those seemingly overwhelming challenges from before will now be possible to move through.
Service work and community keep us sober and happy. Here are a few ways Discovery Place provides an opportunity to give back and be a part of the recovering community.
