Our Leading Drug and Alcohol Rehab Center in Murfreesboro, Tennessee
At JourneyPure at The River, we provide a leading drug and alcohol rehab center in Murfreesboro, TN (just outside Nashville) offering a full spectrum of addiction treatment and mental health services. From medical detox and inpatient rehabilitation to specialized therapy programs and aftercare support, we provide everything needed for lasting recovery under one roof. Our facility is nestled on a scenic 127-acre campus along Middle Tennessee’s Stones River, featuring a 70-bed residential center with comfortable, luxurious amenities in a safe, nature-filled setting. This peaceful environment, free from distractions and triggers, allows individuals to focus entirely on healing and personal growth.
What Sets Our Addiction Treatment Program Apart
What sets JourneyPure apart is our evidence-based, holistic approach and dedication to treating co-occurring mental health conditions alongside addiction. Our goal is not only to help patients get healthy, but to stay healthy for life. Our clinical team provides evidence-based therapies that address substance abuse as well as underlying mental health issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, or bipolar disorder. By identifying and treating these root causes, our program supports more complete and enduring recovery.
We offer comprehensive dual diagnosis treatment in addition to substance use treatment, with a strong focus on dual diagnosis care to ensure any co-occurring disorders receive the specialized attention they need. This integrated treatment model means clients can overcome addiction and learn to manage mental health symptoms together – an approach that our experts recognize as critical for long-term success.

Nationally Recognized, Accredited Addiction Treatment
The quality of care at JourneyPure is affirmed by our credentials and outcomes. Our organization has been nationally recognized as an industry leader and is proudly accredited by the National Association of Addiction Treatment Providers (NAATP), the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF), and is LegitScript-certified. These accreditations speak to our high standards of safety and effectiveness.
Outcomes data shows that graduates of JourneyPure report significant improvements in their lives – 95% of alumni are satisfied with their family relationships and 87% are satisfied with their quality of life after treatment. The strength of our program also lies in our people: many staff members are in recovery themselves and have been where the clients are. They use their personal experience to provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support at every step. Clients are truly surrounded by people who can relate and want to see them succeed. With licensed therapists, psychiatrists, and counselors on staff, treatment plans are highly individualized and informed by the latest clinical research. Our team not only helps patients heal, but also teaches practical life skills and coping strategies to empower patients to thrive long after they leave treatment.
Comprehensive Services for Addiction Recovery & Mental Health
At JourneyPure at The River, we provide a comprehensive, integrated recovery experience that addresses mind, body, and spirit. Below is an overview of all the core services and programs we offer:
Medical Detox
24/7 medically supervised detoxification to safely manage withdrawal symptoms and stabilize clients. Our physicians and nurses provide comfort and monitoring, often utilizing medications when appropriate to ease the detox process. This critical first step lays the foundation for rehab.

Residential Inpatient Rehab
A structured 30-day (on average) inpatient program in our 70-bed facility. We provide intensive therapy, counseling, and medical care in a safe, trigger-free environment with holistic amenities. Ideal for those with moderate to severe addictions who need immersive support. Includes individual counseling, group therapy, family sessions, and trauma-informed care with 24-hour support.
Partial Hospitalization (PHP)
A step-down level of care offering full-day treatment (typically 5-6 hours per day) while clients live at home or in sober housing. PHP includes ongoing medical and psychiatric services and a robust therapy schedule, providing continued structure after inpatient rehab. It’s ideal for clients who need intensive support but have a stable living environment. This level of care ensures continued care that includes medical and additional mental health services for those not yet ready for standard outpatient.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
A flexible outpatient program (often 3-5 days a week for a few hours) that allows clients to attend treatment sessions while balancing work, school, or family obligations. IOP helps individuals transition back into everyday life, providing therapy, relapse prevention planning, and accountability several times per week. Those with mild to moderate substance use issues or who are stepping down from residential care benefit greatly from IOP structure.
Online Addiction Treatment
Convenient Virtual Rehab services via our Tele-Care program. This virtual IOP and telehealth option was launched in response to COVID-19 and continues to make treatment accessible anywhere. Clients engage in counseling and group therapy through secure video, and even receive e-prescriptions for medications (including MAT) as needed. Our HIPAA-compliant platform ensures confidentiality while delivering effective care for addiction and co-occurring disorders from the comfort of home.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment
Integrated treatment for co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders (an approach often called dual diagnosis). We specialize in identifying and treating conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder and more alongside addiction. Our program provides first-class, holistic care for clients with co-occurring disorders through therapies that address both the addiction and the mental health aspects together. Psychiatrists are on staff to manage medications for mental health, while therapists help clients develop healthy ways to cope with symptoms without substances.
Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
The use of evidence-based medications to support recovery, when appropriate. This may include medicines like Suboxone or Vivitrol to treat opioid and alcohol dependence as part of a comprehensive plan. Our philosophy is to utilize evidence-based Medication-Assisted Treatment, if needed, to provide the best chance for lasting recovery. All MAT usage is closely monitored by our medical professionals.
Gender-Specific Programs
Customized treatment tracks for men and women, recognizing that each gender faces unique challenges in recovery.
Our Men’s Program focuses on issues like male roles, communication, and often includes building practical life skills (e.g. job readiness, goal setting) in addition to core therapies. Men participate in all-male group therapy, which encourages open sharing without feeling judged and fosters camaraderie and accountability among peers.
Our Women’s Program provides a safe, supportive space for women to heal, often with emphasis on trauma-informed care, self-esteem, and rebuilding trust. Women at JourneyPure engage in therapies tailored to their needs, including a strong holistic component – activities like yoga, meditation, art therapy, or acupuncture to restore emotional and spiritual well-being. Experiential therapies (such as music or animal-assisted therapy) are also offered to help women express and process emotions in non-verbal ways. These gender-specific groups and therapies empower clients to address sensitive issues with peers who understand, leading to highly effective outcomes.

Veterans & First Responders Program
A specialized Freedom Program designed for military veterans and active-duty service members, as well as first responders, who face unique trauma and stress. This program is run by staff experienced in military culture and is geared towards issues like combat-related PTSD, physical injuries, and reintegration stress. We are honored to serve those who served us – our center even accepts TRICARE insurance to make care accessible for military families. Veterans in treatment receive trauma-focused therapies (such as EMDR or other evidence-based PTSD treatments), group sessions with fellow veterans, and family support to address the impact of service on loved ones. By providing consistent, well-rounded, and compassionate care, our program helps heroes overcome substance use and mental health struggles so they can regain stability and purpose.
Pregnant Women’s Program
Specialized addiction treatment for expectant mothers, focusing on the safety of both mother and baby. This program provides medical oversight from OB/GYN and addiction medicine professionals to manage detoxification safely during pregnancy and prenatal care throughout treatment. Pregnant women participate in regular therapy to address the emotional aspects of addiction and receive education on parenting and health. Our team works closely with each patient’s healthcare providers to ensure a healthy pregnancy and prepare the mother for a sober, supportive start with her newborn. By combining compassionate prenatal medical care with counseling, this program helps expecting mothers break free from addiction in time to welcome a healthy child.
Family Therapy & Support
A strong family program to involve loved ones in the recovery process. Licensed family therapists facilitate family therapy sessions to help repair relationships, improve communication, and educate family members about addiction and mental health. We recognize that addiction is a family disease, so we provide resources and guidance for spouses, parents, and children affected by a loved one’s addiction. Family members learn how to support the recovering person without enabling, set healthy boundaries, and heal from the past. This focus on family involvement helps rebuild trust and create a stable home environment for when the client completes treatment.

Holistic & Experiential Therapies
A diverse range of holistic healing modalities and hands-on therapies complement our clinical treatments. Examples include equine therapy, where clients learn about themselves by caring for and interacting with horses. Our equine program follows the acclaimed EAGALA model – a ground-based approach (no riding) that uses horse interactions to promote personal growth and emotional regulation. Clients participate in weekly equine therapy sessions on the property with certified facilitators, often finding it a powerful mirror for their emotions and behaviors.
Other experiential therapies offered may include adventure therapy (outdoor activities like ropes courses or kayaking on the river), art and music therapy, and meditation and mindfulness practices. These activities engage clients on a deeper level, reduce stress, and build confidence. By incorporating holistic treatment elements such as yoga, fitness, proper nutrition, and acupuncture, we heal the whole person – body, mind, and spirit.
Relapse Prevention & Life Skills
Throughout treatment, clients learn vital relapse prevention techniques to maintain sobriety. This includes understanding personal triggers, developing healthy coping mechanisms, and creating a concrete relapse prevention plan. Group and individual counseling sessions focus on building life skills – from managing stress and emotions to practical skills like budgeting, job searching, or scheduling – so that patients are prepared for independent living without substances. By practicing these skills in a supportive setting, clients leave with greater confidence in handling real-world challenges.
Aftercare & Alumni Program
Recovery doesn’t end at discharge – we are committed to supporting alumni for the long haul. Our Alumni Program provides ongoing fellowship and care for graduates. Alumni are invited to regular peer support group meetings where they can share challenges and successes with others in recovery. Many of these groups target specific topics (for example, opioid addiction recovery or managing anxiety in sobriety) to ensure relevant support.
JourneyPure also hosts on-site 12-Step meetings exclusively for alumni, allowing former clients to return to a familiar, trigger-free environment for meetings with staff and peers. Fun sober events and reunions are organized as well, fostering a sense of community and accountability among alumni.
Perhaps the most innovative resource is the JourneyPure Coaching™ app – a one-of-a-kind aftercare tool that keeps clients connected to their treatment team for a full year after they leave. Through this secure, HIPAA-compliant smartphone app, alumni can regularly check in with counselors or medical staff, ask questions, and receive encouragement. The app also features recovery tracking tools: alumni can log their 12-Step meetings, record workouts and sleep, track their moods, and even share healthy recipes. This digital coaching platform keeps individuals accountable and engaged in positive habits, greatly reducing the risk of relapse. With easy access to outpatient therapy, dedicated peer recovery coaches, and the robust alumni network, we make “lasting addiction recovery success” a top priority.

The JourneyPure Difference: Our Comprehensive Approach to Recovery
As shown above, JourneyPure at The River truly offers end-to-end support, from the first day of sobriety to long-term aftercare. Patients can start with detox, move into residential treatment, step down through PHP and IOP, and continue with alumni services – all within the same caring organization. This continuity of care is a major advantage for clients, ensuring no one falls through the cracks during transitions.
Every client receives an individualized treatment plan tailored to their unique history and needs, with a balanced blend of therapy modalities. Clinical care is grounded in research-backed methods (like CBT and MAT) while also embracing holistic therapies that heal beyond the surface symptoms. And unlike many rehabs, we make a point to address mental health head-on rather than treating addiction in isolation. This means someone with, say, alcoholism and PTSD or depression can get integrated treatment for both conditions at the same time – a crucial factor in preventing relapse.
What Makes Our Tennessee Rehab Center Different
Several key factors make JourneyPure at The River stand out for those seeking addiction or mental health treatment:
Experienced, Compassionate Staff
Our team includes doctors, nurses, therapists, and peers in recovery who genuinely care. Many staff have walked the recovery path themselves, creating an environment of empathy and understanding. Clients often comment that they “felt truly supported by people who understood what I was going through.”
Accredited & High-Quality Care
With NAATP and CARF accreditation and evidence-based practices, families can trust they’re getting top-notch care. We are also LegitScript-certified, which reflects our commitment to ethical, transparent treatment services. Our program measures outcomes and continually strives to improve. High satisfaction rates among alumni (95%+ report positive life changes) demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.
Full Continuum of Services
Unlike programs that offer only one level of care, we provide all levels: detox, inpatient, outpatient, and beyond. This means each person can progress through recovery at their own pace without having to transfer to different providers. The convenience and consistency of staying within one program from start to finish helps build trust and comfort.

Dual-Focus on Mental Health
JourneyPure at The River is as much a mental health treatment center as it is a rehab. Conditions like trauma, anxiety, depression, bipolar, and others are treated not as afterthoughts but as core issues to heal for sustained sobriety. Our facility even welcomes individuals whose primary struggle is mental health (with appropriate clinical assessment), especially when substance use is also present. This comprehensive approach addresses the whole person.
Holistic and Experiential Modalities
Recovery at JourneyPure goes beyond talk therapy. Our program integrates the healing power of nature (with our beautiful campus), equine-assisted therapy, mindfulness practices, fitness, adventure-based counseling, creative therapies, and more. By engaging body and spirit – not just the mind – these methods help clients find joy and meaning in a sober life.
Specialty Programs for Unique Populations
We have dedicated programs for groups like veterans, pregnant women, and professionals, acknowledging that one size does not fit all in treatment. These tracks offer culturally competent care (for example, therapists who understand military culture, or curriculum addressing workplace and licensing concerns for professionals). Such customization improves engagement and outcomes for those groups.
Family Involvement
Rather than excluding family, we actively work with loved ones through therapy and education. Rebuilding the family system is often key to a patient’s long-term success, and we help families heal together.
Aftercare Commitment
The journey doesn’t end when inpatient ends. Our free JourneyPure Coaching app and vibrant alumni community keep clients connected to support for at least 12 months post-treatment. This is a critical time when relapse risks are highest, and our aftercare resources far exceed the industry norm. Alumni know they’re never alone – they have mentors and peers just a text or call away.

Insurance and Accessibility
JourneyPure at The River is in-network with most major insurance providers, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, TRICARE, and others. Our admissions team will even verify benefits and work with families on financial plans to ensure treatment is affordable. Additionally, we offer same-day admissions whenever possible for those in crisis who need immediate help.
