At Impact Recovery Center,
Most treatment centers measure success in beds filled. We measure it in lives changed — and that requires knowing every person by name.
With a maximum of 14 clients, our intimate environment ensures deeply personalized care, not only for those in recovery but for the families who love them. Our owners aren’t behind a desk — they’re present every day, leading groups, building relationships, and making sure no one falls through the cracks.
The bonds formed here tend to last long after the program ends. Many of our alumni remain closely connected, forming a support network that feels less like aftercare and more like family.
If you’re looking for more than just treatment — a program where your loved one is truly known — you’ve found it.
A Guided Immersive Recovery Program
At Impact Recovery Center, we guide individuals with substance abuse and addiction to experience a profound healing and transformation. Living a recovered life is not only a gift – it is an exciting and inspired way to live! Our immersive and concentrated approach guides our clients along a life-altering recovery course that helps them identify and heal the internal conditions preventing permanent sobriety. Through our clients’ commitment to healing and Impact’s unwavering support, the struggle with addiction can be overcome, and a life of freedom awaits.
The Impact Experience
While staying at our tucked-away Alabama property, residents take part in a comprehensive three-part program. Together, our unique 12-step presentation and curriculum, individualized clinical work and the Impactful Family Program enable individuals to confront the root causes of their troubles. Once residents have completed the 35-day intensive, they have the option to enter our transitional, experiential step-down program in Birmingham where they can begin putting the tools they have learned into practical application while remaining in the Impact community.
This approach, combined with a nurturing and intimate environment for healing and exploration, equips individuals with the tools they need to re-enter daily life successfully.
Rebuild Your Life at Impact
We’ve seen it over and over again, so we know it is fully possible for individuals to have their lives transformed, even when that life seemed doomed to failure. Our responsibility is not only to put language around what addiction truly is but also to show that the recovered way of life is an amazing, fulfilling way to live. It is crucial for our clients to realize that, when reliant on only their own power, they have no shot of overcoming the obstacles laid out in front of them. When we can get them in touch with how hopeless their life is going, unexpectedly, that’s when the true hope can show up.
Whether you have tried treatment many times or this is your first attempt at recovery, Impact can help. We are committed to helping all individuals live lives free from addiction, especially:
You’ve taken the hardest step just by being here. Let us show you what recovery can look like.
Watching someone you care about suffer is its own kind of pain. Impact was built for families too.
Our Recovery Programs
Individuals begin their healing at our secluded recovery center where they take part in an authentic 12 Step recovery program. Over the course of 35 days, residents receive guided therapy and support to uncover and heal from the root source of their addictions.
After completing the 35-day 12 Step program, residents have the option to continue their recovery in our aftercare program by moving into Impact’s transitional living facility in Birmingham, Alambama.
Addiction and substance abuse affect more than just the individual. We also provide guided therapy and support for each resident’s family during the course of their program. Family members are provided the opportunity to go through their own recovery process and participate in family sessions while their loved one attends Impact.

Our Podcast: Impacting Recovery – Uncensored
High-functioning addiction is a silent clock ticking toward a relapse. If you are masking internal misery behind a successful job or a quiet lifestyle, checking the boxes in treatment isn’t enough.
In this powerful episode of the Impact Recovery Podcast, host Sarah Pritchard sits down with Bryan Stickney, recovery advocate and owner of Buckhead Therapy. Together, they expose the hidden trap of high-functioning addiction, the illusion of trying to moderate alcohol or drug use, and the profound transformation that occurs when you trade superficial compliance for radical, real accountability.
If you are trapped in a cycle of isolation or trying to save a loved one from addiction denial, this conversation provides an unfiltered, real-world roadmap to life-altering healing.
