About

About Black Bear Treatment Center LLC

Black Bear Lodge, doing business under Black Bear Treatment Center LLC, sits on Black Bear Ridge in Sautee Nacoochee, deep in the North Georgia mountains. The remote, lodge-style setting is deliberate: the facility is built as a peaceful retreat where patients can step away from the chaos that addiction and untreated mental illness can bring into daily life. Patients come from across Georgia and from around the world for the program’s evidence-based, patient-centered model.

Black Bear Lodge is part of Foundations Recovery Network (FRN), a national network with 11 residential and outpatient facilities that has delivered evidence-based, patient-centered treatment for co-occurring addiction and mental health disorders for more than 20 years. That co-occurring focus shapes the clinical program. Trauma- and PTSD-related symptoms, depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions are treated alongside substance use rather than as afterthoughts.

The continuum of care begins with medically supervised detox – both medical detox and subacute detox tracks are available – and continues through residential treatment, intensive outpatient programming, and standard outpatient services. Clinical groups include co-ed lecture groups and a dedicated professionals’ group for clients whose careers raise specific privacy and reintegration concerns. Experiential therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy anchor the therapeutic work, with physical health and spiritual wellness programming layered on top for whole-person care. Intervention coordination is available for families trying to help a loved one accept treatment.

Black Bear Lodge holds Joint Commission accreditation and has been recognized in Newsweek’s 2025 Addiction Treatment listings. Patient satisfaction data collected through Mental Health Outcomes, LLC reports a 4.28 / 5 rating for being treated with dignity and respect, 4.42 / 5 for feeling better at discharge than at admission, and 4.24 / 5 for overall satisfaction. Most major insurance plans are accepted, including TRICARE, and self-pay is available. Free insurance verification is offered. The admissions team can be reached at 706-909-9811.
