About American Alt Court Services (AACS)
Provides targeted support for people dealing with substance use alongside mental health challenges. American Alternative Court Services (AACS Atlanta) offers a clear, organized recovery pathway with multiple levels of care designed to match each client’s situation. Clients can participate in intensive outpatient (IOP) and outpatient programming, where evidence-based clinical therapy is combined with court-required evaluations and counseling. This helps individuals work toward both health and accountability objectives, offering an all-encompassing support system that promotes long-term change.
The program focuses on replacing harmful habits and unhelpful thought patterns. Key treatment approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps individuals identify and adjust negative thinking, and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), which strengthens emotional regulation, coping skills, and mindfulness. With individual and group psychotherapy, clients practice real-world strategies for managing stress, reducing risk of relapse, and building healthier routines. The work also explores root contributors such as trauma and codependency, helping participants question damaging beliefs and develop durable personal growth as part of sustained recovery.
The center maintains a supportive, respectful setting and includes outpatient rehabilitation options specifically for the LGBTQ+ community. It also delivers a variety of court-mandated education and skills classes covering topics such as shoplifting, theft prevention, and anger management. For clients who need deeper support for entrenched behavioral patterns, advanced cognitive skills classes provide a more intensive therapeutic track. Services are offered in both English and Spanish, ensuring specialized care remains accessible to a wide range of individuals and families.
