About Kingston Wellness Retreat
In the rolling hills outside Atlanta, Kingston Wellness Retreat specializes in treating mental health conditions through a lens of hope and possibility. Through evidence-based, neuroscience-backed therapies, they help gently peel back the layers of pain, trauma, and stress that have hidden each client’s most authentic self. Their boutique residential and step-down outpatient programs equip clients with the skills they need to manage their mental health long-term.
Engage in a Wide Range of Therapies
Kingston blends therapeutic modalities to help clients release what no longer serves them. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps clients change negative thought patterns, while dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) strengthens emotional regulation and relationship skills. Trauma-informed therapy addresses the underlying trauma often contributing to mental health disorders., Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) improves mental well-being. Art and music therapy encourage creative emotional release. Family therapy and medication management reinforce stability and long-term healing.
Heal on a Peaceful Estate
The historic “White Columns” estate was thoughtfully designed to ensure comfort and tranquility. The estate feels secluded from downtown Atlanta while remaining accessible from Hartsfield-Jackson or local private airstrips. Clients stay in private and semi-private rooms, and dine on nutritious meals. There are plenty of opportunities to relax in the movie room, stay active in the fitness center, or release tension in the sauna. Outdoors, clients enjoy quiet spaces for reflection like the gazebo, lush gardens, and nearby trails.
Transition Smoothly into Ongoing Care
Before discharge, each client works with the clinical team to develop a detailed aftercare plan. This includes identifying triggers, developing stress management strategies, and establishing ongoing psychiatric support. Clients can also seamlessly transition to Kingston’s partial hospitalization (PHP) or intensive outpatient (IOP) programs to maintain continuity of care and sustained recovery.
