About Animo Education & Counseling
Animo Education & Counseling in Haltom City, Texas provides comprehensive outpatient services for individuals affected by drug and alcohol addiction. They serve both justice involved individuals and those seeking voluntary treatment for substance use disorders. Their services are bilingual which makes treatment and counseling as well as educational support accessible. They offer both supported and intensive outpatient treatment. Both programs are designed for adults seeking flexible and convenient treatment for moderate to mild substance misuse. The beauty of it is that you won’t have to stop work or school to receive therapy.
Intensive outpatient care is relatively structured and involves more intense therapy. You can expect to participate in up to nine hours of group sessions weekly. The supported outpatient program may require just 90 minutes of therapy weekly. The recovery approach is rooted in 12 step models similar to AA and NA. The recovery goal is to help you address the negative behavioral patterns that fuel your substance misuse and bring you back to a place where you’re strong and independent. You can leverage the life skills program to improve your coping mechanisms and build relapse prevention skills and skills for sober living.
The facility can assist you with a comprehensive alcohol and drug assessment if needed for court requirements, employment screening or personal insight into your substance use. Amino offers state certified DUI/DWI education and interventions to help you address DUI charges and learn safer driving practices to help you avoid reoffending. They even provide drug and alcohol education to raise awareness about the risks of addiction and its impact on health/relationships as well as how to make healthier choices for a better future.
Amino also has a Drug Offenders Education Program (DOEP) and a Minors in Possession (MIP) program. Both initiatives aim to foster better decision-making and reduce future substance abuse. Other outpatient services include batterer intervention and behavioral management as well as anger control counseling. This may or may not be related to substance misuse. Aminos also offers parenting programs aimed at promoting healthy family dynamics through effective and supportive parenting.

Levels of Care
Outpatient
After completing some form of inpatient care, many clients transition or step down to an outpatient rehab, while some choose to transition from detox directly into outpatient care. High-intensity outpatient programming, including partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) is widely available for clients in early recovery, those leaving detox, and those at an elevated relapse risk. Clients in outpatient care generally engage in robust addiction counseling and recovery education, and some also receive medication assisted treatment (MAT).
Intensive Outpatient
Intensive outpatient programs offer high-level care for clients as an increased risk of relapse, including those in early recovery, those with a strong history of relapse, and those experiencing a crisis. Intensive outpatient treatment typically requires clients to engage in nine to 20 hours of care weekly, with treatment modalities that combine psychotherapy and recovery education, and holistic therapies, such as acupuncture and animal therapy. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is also common in alcohol and/or opioid recovery.
12-Step
12 step programs promote participants' sustained sobriety through rigorous and ongoing peer coaching and personal spiritual growth. Participants routinely attend 12 step meetings, which are available multiple times per day, 365 days per year in most communities. This ensures that those in recovery have prompt access to the structure and support they need when they need it. These programs use spiritual precepts to address the root causes of addiction and encourage compassion, self-awareness, forgiveness, accountability, and acceptance.

Treatment
Alcoholism
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug Addiction
During rehab in Texas, you'll deal with underlying issues that contribute to addiction. By addressing these challenges and learning healthy ways to cope with them, you'll develop strategies that help you live a drug-free lifestyle.
Mental Health and Substance Abuse
A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.
Opioid Addiction
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Clinical Services
Individual Therapy
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Life Skills
The right life skills training will help you build the skills you need for recovery. You'll learn how to solve problems, improve your social life, enhance your mental health, and make good decisions. This is a key component of drug rehab programs in Texas.
