Nearby cities to compare

Being able to be yourself in treatment

Treatment works best when you can talk honestly about your life: your partner, your family, your gender, where and why you use. In a program that runs an LGBTQ group, those conversations are expected rather than awkward. Ask any program how staff are trained and how they handle names, pronouns and rooming.

See questions to ask an LGBTQ rehab before you commit.

Safety in detox

Ask how the program handles room assignments and whether you can keep taking prescribed medications, including hormones, during detox. You shouldn't have to choose between safe withdrawal and being respected.

Local resources in Nashville

Local health department

The Metro Public Health Department serves Nashville and Davidson County. It runs naloxone vending machines that give out free two-dose packs of naloxone around the clock, and naloxone is also available at its clinics.

About the area

Nashville and Davidson County share one consolidated Metropolitan Government rather than separate city and county governments, so county-level health and court services serve the whole city.

Tennessee rules and programs that affect treatment

These state-level facts apply to everyone seeking LGBTQ detox in Nashville.

Who oversees treatment

Tennessee's Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services licenses alcohol and drug treatment facilities through its Office of Licensure, which checks providers against state law and departmental rules.

Prescription monitoring

Tennessee's prescription monitoring program is the Controlled Substance Monitoring Database, run by the Tennessee Department of Health. It collects dispensing records for Schedule II through V controlled substances and lets authorized practitioners review a patient's prescription history.

Cost and coverage

The cost of treatment depends mostly on the level of care, length of stay and your insurance. Residential care costs the most; outpatient therapy the least. Many programs on SAMHSA's directory accept private insurance, and some offer sliding-scale fees. See our insurance guides.
