Longleaf Recovery & Wellness was created by individuals who have experienced addiction and mental illness and found better lives through treatment and recovery. Now working in the treatment field, they have an intimate understanding of the significant challenges encountered by individuals seeking recovery, created by decades of deficient and rigid treatment programs that rely more on dogma than research and compassion. The leadership team serves with a singular vision to improve how addiction and other mental health disorders are addressed throughout the industry.
This vision was initially realized in July 2021 with the opening of Birmingham Recovery Center, but the demand for quality treatment services was greater than anyone realized.
Longleaf Recovery & Wellness is the organization created to carry our vision to additional locations as well as extend the clinical scope of our services. To start, Longleaf Wellness-Birmingham is an outpatient program dedicated specifically to treat primary mental health disorders. Next, Longleaf Recovery-Huntsville and Longleaf Recovery-Baldwin will be additional outpatient programs addressing primary substance use and co-occurring disorders.
We are humbled by the growth of our organization, and we expect this growth to continue to new locations, to new levels of care and clinical services, and move beyond the borders of Alabama. As our organization evolves, we will always be dedicated to providing the highest quality services while treating our clients with compassion and understanding. Finally, we remain inspired by the words that adorn the coins we offer to our graduating clients:
