Addiction Treatment in Jackson County

Serving Jackson County, Alabama

Jackson County is located in northeast Alabama along the Tennessee border. Our Chattanooga clinic serves Jackson County residents from Bridgeport, Scottsboro, and Stevenson, with drive times of 45 to 75 minutes via I-24. Telehealth follow-ups are available for ongoing care.

How Treatment Works

Restoration Recovery provides outpatient addiction treatment — no residential stay, no detox facility. You visit our Chattanooga clinic for appointments and go home the same day. Follow-up visits step down from weekly to every two weeks to monthly.

Your first visit typically takes 2 to 3 hours and follows a four-step flow: intake (DSM-5 assessment + COWS score for opioid use disorder), counseling, a doctor evaluation, and a same-day Suboxone prescription (Sublocade and Brixadi injections are ordered per-patient and administered at a follow-up visit). Follow-up visits are shorter and can often be done via telehealth from home — helpful for Jackson County residents who want to minimize travel or have heavy work schedules.

What We Treat

We provide evidence-based treatment for addiction to opioids and opioid-like substances including heroin, fentanyl, oxycodone (OxyContin, Percocet), hydrocodone (Vicodin, Norco), morphine, codeine, tramadol, and prescription painkillers.

We also treat alcohol use disorder, stimulant dependence (cocaine, methamphetamine, Adderall, Ritalin, Vyvanse), benzodiazepine dependence (Xanax, Klonopin, Ativan, Valium), cannabis use disorder, and co-occurring mental health conditions including anxiety, depression, and trauma. Our Chattanooga clinic treats anxiety, depression, and trauma with or without addiction treatment. The first visit for that care is in person there; after that, visits can be by telehealth.

Kratom & 7-Hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) Addiction

Kratom and its concentrated derivative 7-OH are increasingly available and can cause opioid-like physical dependence with severe withdrawal symptoms. Our providers have experience treating kratom and 7-OH dependence with MAT and clinical support tailored to its distinct withdrawal profile.

Medications We Prescribe

• Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) — daily film or tablet for opioid use disorder. Reduces cravings and prevents withdrawal so you can function normally.
• Sublocade (extended-release buprenorphine) — once-monthly injection for patients who prefer not to take daily medication.
• Brixadi (extended-release buprenorphine) — weekly or monthly injection for opioid use disorder. Flexible dosing intervals.
• Vivitrol (naltrexone) — once-monthly injection for alcohol use disorder.
• Oral medications for alcohol use disorder — acamprosate, naltrexone, and disulfiram — are also prescribed as daily alternatives to the monthly Vivitrol injection.
