Longleaf Recovery & Wellness
Leading Mental Health, and Addiction Treatment Center in Alabama
Inspired by the longleaf pine, an extraordinary tree that grows stronger after fire-Longleaf Recovery and Wellness stands for resilience, growth, and healing through adversity. Just as the pine endures and regenerates, we believe recovery is a process of becoming even stronger through life’s challenges. At Longleaf rehabilitation centers in Alabama, we’re raising the standard of care in addiction recovery and mental wellness. Through evidence-based practices and a compassionate team, we empower individuals to take back control of their lives, rediscover their strength, and move forward with purpose. Our care is personal, grounded in trust, and built to support real, lasting change.
What We Treat
Comprehensive Care for Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders
At Longleaf Recovery & Wellness Centers, we offer more than symptom relief; we provide whole person care. Our integrated treatment approach supports individuals facing substance misuse, mental health conditions, or both. Whether you’re struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, or addiction, our programs are built to meet you where you are and guide you toward long lasting recovery.
Drug addiction is more than just a habit—it’s a disruption of the brain’s processes. That’s why we offer personalized drug addiction treatment designed to address the root causes of substance use. Our expert team delivers compassionate, evidence-based drug rehab in Alabama tailored to your unique needs, so you can reclaim control of your life.
Drinking alcohol plays a significant role in many aspects of American society. However, it is also the most common substance involved with individuals seeking treatment for substance use disorders. Our alcohol rehab in Alabama offers expert, individualized care to help you break free from alcohol dependence and take back control of your life.
Substance use disorders frequently occur with various mental health conditions, exacerbating symptoms and complicating recovery. Whether it’s trauma, anxiety, depression, or other psychiatric disorders, these conditions must be addressed simultaneously with substance use disorders to support long-term recovery.
Societal misconceptions can often prevent individuals from seeking help with mental health conditions, leaving untreated individuals feeling frustrated and misunderstood. The compassionate, comprehensive, and professional approach of Longleaf Wellness creates the foundation for long-lasting healing.

Colin Harris, a dedicated advocate for quality addiction treatment, is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Longleaf Recovery and Wellness. With a deeply personal connection to the challenges faced by individuals and families grappling with addiction, Colin’s journey in recovery has fueled his commitment to making a meaningful impact in the field.

It is from this firsthand experience that Colin channels a profound passion for quality treatment into his role, overseeing the daily operations of Longleaf Recovery & Wellness. As a native Alabamian, Colin is unwavering in his dedication to developing programs tailored to the unique needs of those in the state who, like him, have struggled with addiction. His vision extends beyond personal triumph to the broader mission of enhancing addiction treatment options and outcomes for individuals and families in Alabama and beyond.
