Our Neighborhood

Nashville is not just a city filled with music, art, restaurants, and lights, but it offers some of the most wonderfully unique hometown neighborhoods you can find. Our headquarters, therapy rooms, and residences are located in and around the Berry Hill area of Nashville, which is great for finding plenty of activities, transportation, and for easily getting to shops and appointments by walking or public transportation. We enjoy outings to Radner and Centennial parks, local museums, movies, bowling, and we frequently dine out in Nashville.

Our Core Treatment Program

To help your loved one gain the relationship and life skills they need to take charge of their lives and reach the highest level of independence, we use a team approach—meaning our clinical team fully participates in the treatment of your loved one in an environment where every client is an integral member of a supportive community.

Residential Treatment Center (RTC) and Residential/Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) Prep

Our Residential Treatment Centers are non-locked, licensed residential treatment facilities that provide 24-hour supported and monitored living, and is our highest level of care.

Our Residential PHP Prep homes are ideal for clients who are beginning to take on more autonomy, but still require prompting and reminders from staff and others to engage in coping skills and basic activities of daily living.

PHP with Housing and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) with Housing

Our PHP with Housing level of care may be the recommended entry point to BrightQuest for some of our new clients. Though no overnight, live-in house manager is present, BrightQuest staff regularly visits each house in addition to each morning and evening, 7 days per week, to verify medication compliance, chore completion, and to confirm that the house is in good order.

Our IOP homes are residential homes located in the surrounding community. BrightQuest staff regularly visit each house throughout the day to verify medication compliance, chore completion, and to confirm that the house is in good order. Clients in this level of care have begun to consistently take personal responsibility and initiative in managing the various domains of their lives. This level is designed with special focus on increased independence. 

IOP and Outpatient

In our IOP clients who successfully step down from previous levels of care will continue to engage in structured BrightQuest programming while adjusting to living on their own.

Our Outpatient Services offer a continuation of individual, group, and family therapy, along with medication management services and specialized personal development instruction. Faithful participation in aftercare will help reinforce the important lessons learned in treatment, as clients complete their transformation to self-sufficiency and sustainable wellness.

Our Individualized Programming

We also offer several supplemental programs to enhance and further your loved one’s recovery, tailored to their varied needs. Some of our individualized programs include our nutrition program, which emphasizes self-care by incorporating healthy nutrition and exercise regimens into treatment plans to improve management of psychiatric and medical symptoms, our equine therapy program, which incorporates horses experientially for emotional growth and development, and physical wellness training, which incorporates physical wellness and nature-based activities into our already comprehensive approach to treatment to support each individual on their path of recovery and healing. We are thrilled to partner with Small World Yoga, a non-profit organization that connects people and creates community by increasing access to the transformative and healing power of yoga. Rock to Recovery helps clients develop a sense of belonging and self-esteem in addition to helping them learn to channel their emotions by writing lyrics and singing together for release, in real-time.
