Questions about substance use groups in Tennessee
Are there free substance use groups in Tennessee?
Yes. 8 of the 10 substance use groups listed in Tennessee are free to join. Each listing states its own cost, so you know before you reach out.
Can I join an online substance use group from Tennessee?
There are 24 online substance use groups on The Group Guide. Peer-led and community groups usually accept members from anywhere. Therapist-led groups may only accept people in the states where the leader is licensed, and each listing says who can join.
What is the difference between a substance use support group and a substance use therapy group?
A support group is usually led by a peer or volunteer and centers on shared experience. A therapy group is led by a licensed clinician and works toward treatment goals. 2 of the 10 substance use groups listed in Tennessee are led by a licensed professional. Listings show whether a licensed professional leads the group.
Do I need a referral to join?
Most groups on The Group Guide accept self-referrals: you contact the group directly. Some insurance-covered groups ask for a referral, and the listing will say so.
How do I know a listing is current?
Group leaders write their own listings, and listings show when their details were last checked. That check confirms the group's details match its own website. It is not a clinical review or an endorsement.
If you need help now
A support group is not crisis care. If you or someone you know is struggling right now:
- Call or text 988, the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Free, confidential, 24/7.
Lead a substance use group in Tennessee? Get found.
Only 2 of the 10 substance use groups listed in Tennessee are led by a licensed professional. If you run one, list it where people are already searching. Therapists and counselors: founding seats close December 31, and a founding listing for one fee-based group stays free for the life of the listing. Free groups always list free.
