About DeKalb Community Service Board Kirkwood Mental Health

Defining Claratel
Claratel Behavioral Health has over 20 locations in DeKalb County, including the Claratel Kirkwood Clinic on Warren Street. They’re less than a mile from Memorial Drive SE and two miles south of DeKalb Avenue NE with easy access to downtown with access to local buses.
The facility sits at the heart of East Atlanta’s historic Kirkwood neighborhood and provides tailored support for residents dealing with mental health and co-occurring disorders. Services include therapy, psychiatric medication prescriptions and management, and peer support. Crisis intervention services are available for acute psychiatric and addictive symptoms. Almost all services are available via telehealth.
Therapy & MAT
Folks with primary substance use disorder may be referred to Claratel DeKalb Addiction Clinic or Claratel Fox Recovery Center. These facilities offer tailored addiction recovery. Services include individual and group therapy alongside psychosocial education to help you build sound coping skills, enhance self-awareness, and support lasting recovery. They also offer family therapy to strengthen your support network.
One recovery service you can receive here is opioid detox via medication-assisted treatment or MAT. This involves administering FDA-approved meds to help you curb physiological cravings and alleviate painful withdrawal symptoms. This is backed up with counseling to address underlying psychological issues and ensures lasting abstinence.
Their broader services encompass case management, which may include help with housing access, employment support, and educational assistance. The facility also offers specialized programs for men so they can transition into independence. Mobile crisis support is also available in emergencies.
