New Addiction Treatment Center Opens in East Tennessee

Landmark Recovery Brings Affordable Addiction Treatment to Knoxville

KNOXVILLE, Tenn., June 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Landmark Recovery, the nation's fastest growing drug and alcohol addiction treatment service provider, opened a new treatment center in the East Tennessee community, Landmark Recovery of Knoxville.

Located in the former Brookhaven Retreat facility at 1016 IC King Road in Seymour, Landmark will offer accessible and affordable inpatient and outpatient addiction recovery services, drug detox programs, therapy and counseling for men and women. Landmark works with most major insurance providers and offers payment plans.

On June 20 Landmark Recovery staff welcomed state senators Richard Briggs and Becky Duncan Massey, Lt. Brad Butler of the Blount County Sheriff's Office, Capt. Mark Taylor of the Maryville Police Department and Knox County Commissioner Dasha Lundy to celebrate and tour the 48-bed treatment center which is nestled in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains.

Michelle Dubey, chief clinical officer at Landmark Recovery, said the company's goal is to provide passionate, individualized services that provide a holistic approach to recovery while bringing more access to treatment for those who need it most.

"More than 400,000 Tennesseans are wrestling with drug or alcohol addiction," Dubey said. "Here in the Knoxville area there is an overwhelming need for more addiction recovery programs. Availability and affordability are two of the most prevalent barriers for individuals struggling with substance use. Landmark believes these individuals deserve the highest quality of clinical care available regardless of socioeconomic status or insurance provider."

More than 107,000 deaths due to drug overdose were recorded nationwide last year alone. The Knoxville area recorded 498 unintentional overdose deaths in 2021 and 221 this year. Knox, Roane, and Sevier counties were three of only four counties in the state which decreased overdose deaths due to opiods, while neighboring Blount and Loudon counties continued to increase, according to the 2021 TN Annual Overdose Report.
