About Banyan Texas

Specializing in a truly unique approach to addiction recovery, Banyan Treatment Center in Waelder, Texas helps individuals affected by substance abuse, addiction and mental health challenges. This facility, which sits on 70 acres and is entirely fenced in, immerses clients in nature therapy by allowing them to connect with the outdoors as part of their recovery. Residents are served chef-prepared meals which gives them comfort and sustenance during their treatments.

Programs like Faith in Recovery and SMART Recovery cater to clients with specific needs and belief systems. They also offer programs dedicated to supporting the unique obstacles that veterans face. What sets Banyan apart is its strong aftercare program that offers long-term support once you have left treatment.

Banyan Texas offers outpatient programs for long-term recovery support while seamlessly implementing clients back into their routines. The intensive outpatient program (IOP) provides a structured and stable environment for those who are ready to begin transitioning back into their lives yet still need some form of continued therapy and no longer need 24-hour care.

Clients generally attend several therapy sessions a week, focusing on relapse prevention, coping techniques and therapeutic issues. The standard outpatient program (OP) has an even lighter schedule to accommodate people who are transitioning back to work or family life. Both programs are steeped in a blend of individual and group therapies allowing clients to fortify their recovery skills.

Many enter a medical detox program that provides 24/7 medical supervision to help them deal with withdrawal safely. After detox, their intensive inpatient and residential treatments provide a structured setting with intensive therapies. The partial hospitalization program serves as a bridge from inpatient care to outpatient services, providing comprehensive care during the day while clients return home during the night .

Banyan Texas also utilizes holistic therapies such as trauma-focused therapy, faith-based recovery and family counseling. They focus on relapse prevention and aftercare planning so clients have a plan for how to maintain their progress after leaving the facility.

They partner with several insurance companies to offer patients treatment at an affordable rate. They take most major insurance plans and their admissions team assists clients in verifying their coverage to assess the cost of care.

As a professional in the recovery industry, I recommend Banyan Texas and have had a seamless experience working with Aaron Stacey. I referred a client there a month ago and the experience was smooth and without error. The client received quality care and ended up stepping down to us with a renewed heart.

this treatment center saved my life. i was hooked on opiates and benzos from age 16 to age 19 and when i finally chose to get help, i m very glad that i chose this place. to anyone out there who is reading this and is scared about going, this place is incredibly nice. the food is amazing, the rooms are very nice with each having its own air conditioner that you control, as well as a flat screen tv hooked up to a directv box. the staff is amazing and all of them absolutely care. from the techs; chastity, ethan, sergio, sylvia, anita, and destiny, to the amazing counselors james and carmen, to the awesome nursing staff (especially candice, ron, and erin!), to coach zoobin, even ms.ruby the director of ops is awesome. the location is in the middle of beautiful nature and the facilities include a huge lodge where all meals are served which also includes two flatscreens, one of which is hooked up to an xbox! once again, this place saved my life, and many other people s lives too. if you re ready to start healing, this is the place to do it.

Banyan has been a life-changing experience for me. My stay was for 45 days, and I didn't want to go. I have been able to work through so many barriers that have stood in my way throughout my addiction. And I have the Clinical staff and other clients here to thank for this. Never would I have believed that treatment could genuinely work, but it has. I'm leaving here a completely different person, inside and out. The tools I have learned here are so amazing. Everyone from the groundskeeper, housecleaning, cooks, techs, recovery coach, clinical staff, and case management are absolutely amazing! Without you all, I would not be where I am today! Ruby, Zoobin, Destiny, Catherine, Carolyn, Carmen, Trey, Ethan, Niki, James, Jamie, all the nursing staff, Mary, Yessi, Rueben, Jimmy, and Joe, it was a pleasure getting to know each of you. This isn't goodbye; it's only until I see you again.

Accepted Insurance

Banyan Texas works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Blue Cross Blue Shield

Friday Health Plans

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

Addiction Treatments

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).

Inpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient programs are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs. The Intensive Outpatient Program gives patients the chance to participate in a structured treatment plan part-time while they transition back to home and work or other responsibilities.

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.

Partial Hospitalization Program

Commonly known as "day treatment," a partial hospitalization program (PHP) offers intensive addiction treatment while allowing you to return home each day. It can serve as an alternative to inpatient hospitalization or as a step-down option. Depending on your needs, PHP treatment typically averages 90 days with a weekly requirement of 6-8 hours a day. PHP treatment offers a variety of therapeutic interventions such as individual counseling, group therapy, and psychoeducation. Oftentimes PHP treatment can be fully covered by insurance.

Medically Assisted Detox

Ridding the body of harmful, addictive substances, also known as detoxification, is usually the first phase of recovery. Those going through medically assisted detox can be administered medications by a team of medical professionals who are on-site 24/7 to provide different types of therapies that help mitigate withdrawal symptoms.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Military Program

Serving in the military is both mentally and physically challenging, and can result in trauma that persists even after combat ends. Military programs are tailored to the specific and often complex needs of active duty personnel, veterans, and military families. Clients often access these programs through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Clinical Services

The goal of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in Texas is to change thought patterns, which leads to changes in behavior. Specific techniques during CBT can include self talk, SMART goals, journaling, and positive activities.

Treatment that takes a dialectical behavior therapy approach focuses on four strategies. Distress tolerance will help you accept and tolerate intense emotions. Emotional regulation will teach you to manage those emotions. Mindfulness will keep you in the present moment instead of regret or worry. Interpersonal effectiveness will teach you to manage your relationships.

Peer support is an important aspect of group therapy sessions for drug and alcohol addiction. As you and your peers share stories and encourage each other, it fosters a sense of community and belonging that helps you process your feelings and reduces the sense of isolation that is associated with addiction.

Individual therapy offers you a confidential space to address the complexities of your drug or alcohol addiction. Your therapist guides these personalized sessions to help develop self awareness and manage stress. This promotes sustained sobriety and overall well being.

Together with an experienced trauma therapist, you work on healing emotional wounds from traumatic experiences within a trauma therapy environment. Your therapist will help you process the experience of the trauma, which promotes emotional healing and improves your overall mental health.

Eye Movement Desensitization And Reprocessing

The purpose of family therapy is to create a supportive and understanding family dynamic within the family unit. Therapists help individual members to identify and change harmful behavior patterns and improve communication. This provides a stable foundation for the family and their loved one's recovery.

Experiential therapy in Texas can look different for each person. You may engage in fitness activities, community service, culinary arts, or art therapy, for example. The goal is to provide a safe setting where you can interact with your environment and work through emotions and experiences with the help of that activity and the guidance of a therapist.

Awful place. While I was there, three people quit working there three people were kicked out, and five people AMA d. Definitely do not recommend. The staff is completely rude and does not care about you. You don t get to use your phone at all. Not even see it for major doctors appointment coming up the doctors don t help you if you ve got something wrong other than alcohol or drug abuse.

Thank you for the review, we value your feedback so that we can ensure a better experience for others. Banyan takes great pride in offering quality care to our patients. We encourage you to call (888) 394-2280 with the code BANY to file your complaint so it can be further addressed. Reporting is completely anonymous.

I spent 5 miserable days there. I called and signed up voluntarily for help. I was kept drugged on adavan for the first 3 days. My blood pressure sunk so low I could hardly stand up, nor receive my medication. I was handed a propel water and told to smoke a couple of cigarettes while walking around... I could hardly stand. The second night I was called to the main office (BP was up) and asked to sign an agreement for a $3400 deductible regardless that I was medicated. I refused mostly because I wasn't allowed to call my husband to see if this seemed right. I never saw a case worker or a therapist at 5 days in. I am fortunate enough to live locally and was able to have my husband come get me, but only after threatening to call the police. Do not send a loved one here. It's a cookie cutter program that cuts off contact with support systems. Any contact with family is monitored by a staff member who has control of the phone, which is only 15 minutes once a week.

I had a wonderful experience here. All of the techs were extremely helpful. I felt heard and supported in every aspect of my recovery. My case workers Niki and Caroline, as well as my therapist Destiny, were superb. I appreciate all the help I received during my time here and feel that I have been set up for success. I would definitely recommend Banyan to anyone who maybe struggling. Wishing everyone already here, and yet to come a safe and healthy recovery.

April Hopkins

Beautiful establishment, Very helpful and informative, my case manager Niki helped me with everything I needed done that I couldn t do at home :) I can t wait to put these tools to work if you need help, don t wait ! Call them ASAP !

I have been a client at Banyan Treatment Center in Waelder Texas. I had a very positive experience both stays. The staff/counselors/medical team/case management met all my needs 100%.

This place is horrible. They do not allow your loved ones who are getting help at their facility to keep in contact with their support system. This is a major red flag, especially because it is in a remote area. They use this to their advantage to make voluntary patients feel imprisoned, instead of supported. Even high security prisons allow inmates to make several 15 minute phone calls per day. This prevents institutions from becoming corrupt. I was not even a patient there and I am physically ill because I was unable to contact my fianc� who, again, was there voluntarily. Either way, the patients have rights. I was already in the process of filing a complaint with the Texas Health Dept. and, no surprise, at the same time I was doing this, my loved one was leaving AMA along with several others. I will be following through with formal complaints. Finally, subjecting the patients to 100 degree weather for 2 hours and refusing to assist with transportation is absolutely sick.

I was not satisfied with the service I received at Banyan. For the get go I was sent off the the ER because the nursing staff could not get my BP under control and at no time of this did they administer my BP meds . I am in debt not once but twice sent to the ER in less than 2 hours from arriving back just to be sent right back to the center which put me in major debt. That was just the beginning they sell such a great place but nothing is fulfilled. Leslie an admit coordinator sells it well, the organization of the staff is terrible. The groups are 70 percent of the time not useful. I learned more on my one on one with my therapist which was just once a week and she left Banyan for another center. If food and lodging made the difference this is your place but for recovery no way I recommend La Hacienda to anyone desiring long term recovery, I'm doing very well now after treatment there and I am very happy. I am a manger of my Sober House and have a very spiritual life and a great job. I'm great ful to my God for La ha and my new life .
