Carey Counseling Center Inc Huntingdon Site operates as an established outpatient treatment facility in Carroll County, Tennessee, serving the broader Northwest Tennessee recovery community since 1970. This CARF-accredited recovery center has built deep roots in Huntingdon, providing accessible addiction treatment for individuals seeking ongoing support in their recovery journey.
The center's outpatient program addresses both substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions, recognizing that lasting recovery often requires treating multiple aspects of a person's wellbeing.

Their weekday schedule accommodates working adults and family responsibilities, while specialized services for deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals demonstrate their commitment to inclusive care within the recovery community.

Their policy ensures no one is denied services based on ability to pay, making quality addiction treatment accessible to Northwest Tennessee families regardless of financial circumstances. The center's nearly five-decade presence in Huntingdon reflects their role as a trusted recovery partner for multiple generations of families.
