The Lloyd C. Elam Mental Health Center, located at 2000 Albion Street in Nashville, Tennessee, is a comprehensive behavioral health facility offering a full continuum of care for individuals struggling with mental health and substance use disorders. As part of Meharry Medical College, this center delivers patient-centered services guided by evidence-based practices and a strong commitment to culturally sensitive care. From initial mental health assessments to ongoing outpatient and inpatient treatment programs, the facility supports individuals across all stages of recovery. The clinical team includes board-certified psychiatrists, licensed counselors, social workers, nurses, and resident physicians who work collaboratively to provide integrated and confidential treatment.
The center specializes in co-occurring disorder treatment for both men and women and offers dedicated inpatient programs for pregnant and recently postpartum women. Adolescent outpatient programs for substance use are also available, ensuring that services span multiple age groups and needs. Lloyd C.

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is provided for individuals with opioid use disorder, while intensive outpatient (IOP) and standard outpatient (OP) services offer flexible recovery pathways. Welcoming walk-ins and serving uninsured and indigent populations, this center plays a vital role in improving community access to high-quality behavioral health care in the Nashville area.
When my psychotherapy clients need to consult with someone about the possibility of medication, I usually refer them to Rhonda Bartine because not only is she excellent at psychiatry, but she takes the time to really understand her patients' strengths and challenges -- she connect and collaborates with them.
Miriam Rose was instrumental in helping my father with his depression and helping with his dementia. She was professional and an advocate for our family as we were going through a difficult time. I highly recommend her, and am so grateful to have had her help!

I’ve waited a really long time to write this, but decided it’s finally time. I’m currently 16 months sober, and I owe so much of that to the team at Live Again Detox. This wasn’t my first rodeo, or even my second, but more along the lines of “oh, we doing this again?” I’ve been to some really terrible places in my recovery journey over the last 17 years, but Live Again ranks among the best. From day one, I was treated with care and compassion and I could tell that the clinicians, nurses, and recovery team really cared. They handled me with care and dignity, helping me to feel seen and heard for the first time in a long time. The catering was top-notch and there were groceries runs about 1x week. The bedrooms provided were spacious and clean (and there’s even a tv provided!) The communal areas were always kept well stocked with snacks and drinks. The living room area had video game consoles as well as a large selection of novels to choose from, should you feel so inclined. There was ample opportunities to attend in-house recovery meetings, such as AA. There are counselors on site to visit with as needed. Live Again truly helped me to set a solid foundation for recovery, and I have recommended them several times since I left their care. If you are in need for specialized SUD care, I highly recommend these guys! Thank you, care team for making me feel like a person again.
Dr. Quaseum is literally the greatest psychiatrist in nashville! Her entire practice is so wonderful and highly recommend for anything related to mental health!
Best mental health place. Truly having the best experience. The providers genuinely care about you and make time. They are holistic in the way they take into account who you are as a woman and a person. Can’t imagine going anywhere else :)
