ABOUT LEGACY FREEDOM TREATMENT CENTERS – CHARLOTTE
Legacy Freedom Treatment Centers operates four outpatient treatment facilities in North Carolina and Ohio for adults and adolescents who are struggling with substance abuse. The Charlotte site provides an intensive outpatient program (IOP) that integrates holistic therapies with individual and group psychotherapy.
Treatment also is available for co-occurring mental health disorders and addictions besides drugs and alcohol, such as eating, gaming, gambling, sex, and shopping. In addressing this additional slate of addictions, the Charlotte Legacy Freedom Treatment Center is, throughout the state of North Carolina, among 26.2 percent of substance abuse treatment facilities that provide care for other addictions.
TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT
The primary course of treatment at the Charlotte Legacy Freedom Treatment Center is an IOP that meets for group therapy three times a week and individual therapy at least twice a week. These sessions apply evidence-based methods, which include trauma-informed eye movement desensitization and reprocessing.
Additionally, clients participate in practices designed to strengthen coping skills, boundary setting, emotional management, spiritual discovery, and physical recovery. Drug testing is a component of the program. Among the holistic therapies available are acupuncture, meditation, equine-assisted therapy, nutritional counseling, Tai Chi, and yoga.
Upon completion of the IOP, clients receive referrals to relevant services for aftercare, such as therapists, gyms, sober coaches, and sober living facilities. The center also offers life coaching and couples and family counseling.

No routine, no support, sponsors not in place and staff is poorly trained,” the loved one wrote.
