There are not enough positive words for my experience. TWC saved my life.
I have been all over the country, I put my faith into a power greater than myself, and landed in the best possible place a lost hurting and broken father could have found.
Dual diagnosis, trauma, PTSD, ADHD, and borderline to name a few, took me out and down around until I found my home here in Knoxville.
From my directors to the therapists to the techs, I received nothing but the best care.
I was blessed in finding the groups, the routine and supportive housing were the structure and care I lacked. The real gift they provided was the rides to program, medicine as scheduled (I always forgot in my past) routine, rinse, repeat, rinse, repeat :) and the accountability.
Being able to be driven to weekly meetings, being in a supportive community, and having peer to peer support made the biggest changes in my recovery.
The network in Knoxville is strong and they are such wonderful caring and brilliant people.
I never felt safer and happier in my life.
Without disclosing "TMI" what I overcame, while being able to cope and process...... I know in my heart I would have not coped and definitely would not be here....period.
I mean that. My children now have a father, though in another state, who listens, loves, and cares both for himself and them.
I was lost, confused, hopeless, restless irritable and discontent
Now I feel gratitude, empathy, spiritually fit, and have in my opinion had a complete change in psyche and a "restoration of sanity" if you feel what I'm "stepping in"
To my friends I made, they're not friends they're family. To the staff they saved my life. Whole hearted. I thank you so much from the top inside and bottom of my entire being.
I love everyone in that building and cannot express enough how successful and thorough their program can be.
Thank you very very much.

Please if you or anyone you know needs support help or a similar story. This is the place!!!!!!
Completely life changing experience. Very loving and passionate therapists, experienced housing staff who are very inspiring people with amazing success stories. I was provided a complete and total pathway to begin my recovery with all the love help and support while there and after I graduated that I could ever need and more than I could ever imagine possible.
I’ve been in several places all across the United States and none of them felt like home. The staff were genuinely Concerned about my well-being! They will bend over backwards and jump through hoops, just to save a life and that life just happened to be mine. They were my family when I was there and that made me feel at home. I would not hesitate one second to tell anybody that is suffering and needs help from this cruel disease to put 100% trust in the Tennessee Wellness Center! Not only did it Save my life, I personally Watched it save several more when I was there! It’s a great place to start your recovery and continue it. If you want a better life and you’re tired of the insanity and stupidity, Pack your bags and allow the Tennessee Wellness Center to give you your life back!!
The TWC Program was my last setting on my way to Wellness over my most recent
2 month depression episode 1 1/2 years ago.
The Group Sessions, individual therapy and the opportunity to care for others afforded my recovery in a monumental way. I highly recommend TWC for mental health recovery. Mary Catt, 4/24
