About Covenant Hills Treatment Center
Covenant Hills is a faith-based Christian rehab facility located in Boerne, Texas with dedicated programs for adults struggling with drug and alcohol addiction. This drug rehab facility offers medical detox, residential inpatient treatment, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and aftercare to its clients.
Individuals are required to detox before entering into another program. During detox, clients are monitored by medical staff administer the needed medication to minimize withdrawal symptoms. Individualized treatment plans are created this time to help transition the client into residential treatment after completing detox.
The residential treatment plan at this facility is highly structured and gender separated into different commercial residences. Clients will attend educational lectures, process groups, and individual counseling. During the client’s stay, they will address the psychological, physical, and spiritual implications of long-term substance abuse.
Outpatient services provide resources and support during the day and allow the client to return home at night. Depending on the severity of the abused substance, clients will attend treatment daily or weekly through individual and group therapy sessions. During their sessions, clients will build effective coping and relapse-prevention skills while sharing their experiences with others.
Those who have graduated from their program will have access to aftercare. This entails emotional support, building upon life and coping skills, and recovery education.

Levels of Care
Outpatient
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
Inpatient
Clients requiring highly structured, treatment are admitted to either their men’s or women’s Residential Inpatient Treatment programs, usually for 30 days. Their treatment settings provide a comfortable, home-like living environment under 24-hour supervision. Their staff of caring professionals administers some of the most effective treatment available. Through lectures and individual counseling, the staff educates their clients about the psychological, physical and spiritual implications of long-term substance abuse. They help each client discover and effectively address emotional or psychological issues that might interfere with his or her recovery through group and individual counseling and psychotherapy.
Intensive Outpatient
Covenant Hills Intensive Outpatient Program provides a unique, comprehensive array of services to meet the needs of adults struggling with chemical dependency and co-occurring disorders. The program is designed to effectively assist clients in learning the tools for recovery from addiction and build productive lives. Their Intensive Outpatient Program aligns with their philosophy that no part of a person is separate from the interactions of the other parts – the emotional affects the physical, the physical affects the emotional and the spiritual is the basis of all. Therefore, their Christian 12-Step program integrates these foundational truths with a comprehensive evidence-based clinically driven program.
Aftercare
Rehab aftercare programs are based on a model of continuing care and the premise that recovery is a life-long process requiring ongoing client support. Many rehab aftercare services include outpatient care, but clients often continue to receive support after being discharged from formal treatment. Case managers and care teams typically collaborate with clients to design their long-term care plan, which may include peer coaching, career counseling, and 12 step program induction, among other services.
12-Step
Their clients are encouraged to repair or establish a true connection with God. They are offered a choice of either their non-denominational Christian 12 Step program or the Traditional 12 step program. In the Christian program the 12 Steps point to the person of Christ with a biblical approach to recovery, while in the Traditional program we present recovery based on God as the client may understand Him (as presented in AA).
Sober Living Homes
Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.
Intervention Services
A drug intervention in Texas may be necessary if your loved one is in denial about a substance use disorder. You can partner with intervention services to plan and execute an effective intervention that educates your loved one about addiction and encourages them to get the treatment they need. Many rehab centers offer intervention specialists who can facilitate the intervention and help with a seamless transition to inpatient rehab for treatment.
24-Hour Clinical Care
24-hour clinical care in Texas provides a safe environment for medical detox. This setting is crucial to provide medical care during withdrawal. Certain withdrawal symptoms can cause life-threatening conditions, but patients in a supervised clinical setting have treatment readily available to address any symptoms before they become severe. Treatment can also be provided for co-occurring physical and mental health issues.
Medically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

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.
Dual Diagnosis
Covenant Hills is a dual diagnosis treatment center for women only. They specialize in helping women who suffer from drug addiction and/or alcoholism, while also addressing any emotional or psychiatric issues that may be contributing to the addiction problem. They believe that this can only be done properly in a gender specific environment with an experienced and understanding staff of women who both understand and relate to the issues that each of our female clients present.
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
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
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.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
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.
Equine Therapy
Group Therapy
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
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.
Motivational Interviewing
Therapy sessions that incorporate motivational interviewing focus on OARS: open questions, affirmation, reflections, and summarizing. This facilitates an exchange of information and an empowering of the client to decide for themselves what changes might need to be made in their lives.
Trauma Therapy
Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
Family Therapy
They specialize in “Whole Person Health”; a comprehensive treatment approach that incorporates heart change that leads to life change. The goal is to see this Wholeness positively impact the health of the entire family, not just the struggling addict.
Nutrition Therapy
Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.
