About New Hope Healthcare Institute

Built on the belief that recovery is always possible

New Hope Healthcare Institute is a mental health and drug & alcohol treatment center in Knoxville, Tennessee — founded by people who know recovery firsthand and staffed by clinicians who treat every client like family.

Our Story

Why We Opened Our Doors in Knoxville

New Hope was founded on a simple conviction: the people of East Tennessee deserve addiction and mental health care that is both clinically excellent and genuinely human. Too many families were sending loved ones out of state for quality treatment — or settling for care that treated symptoms without seeing the person.

Today, our licensed team treats adults and teens struggling with substance use, mental health conditions, and co-occurring disorders — through detox placement, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient levels of care. We remain proudly local: rooted in Knoxville, minutes from the Smoky Mountains, and connected to the recovery community we helped build.
