What Is Accreditation? (And Why Does It Matter?)
Accreditation is a review process by a third-party entity to ensure that a mental health program meets rigorous and strict standards.
Third-party healthcare entities operate independently of treatment centers. This ensures that there is no conflict of interest when vetting a program. In addition, third-party accreditation firms have their own reputations to uphold, thus providing an additional layer of trust for consumers.
Accreditation matters because it verifies that a mental health program provides the services it claims to provide.
When looking for a treatment center, you want to be sure that they can help you with your mental health disorder. You want to make sure that they have professional staff qualified for those services. You also want to know that you will be safe and secure while in their facilities.
This is where a 3rd-party accreditation helps. Third-party accreditation firms set high standards for essential requirements like evidence-based therapies, safe and secure facilities, and qualified professional staff. In many states, accreditation from a trusted third-party firm is required for licensure.

What Types of Evidence-Based Therapies Does Time Wellness Provide?
One of the most important parts of accreditation is ensuring a treatment center offers evidence-based therapy.
When a therapy is evidence-based, it means that the therapy has shown to be effective with multiple peer-reviewed studies from researchers and professionals. Providing evidence-based therapies is also critical for insurance coverage, as insurance carriers are more willing to pay out for therapies proven effective.
We provide the following evidence-based therapies and services at our Tennessee mental health center:
- Medication Management: Psychiatrists prescribe mental health medications to treat symptoms of mental health disorders.
- Psychological Evaluation: A professional psychological evaluation is critical to get an accurate diagnosis from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5).
- Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is one of the most common types of psychotherapy due to its proven effectiveness.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) treats conditions like borderline personality disorder (BPD), self-harming behaviors, eating disorders, suicidal ideation, and conditions associated with trauma.
- EMDR Therapy: Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) treats post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other trauma-related conditions.
