About Gulf Bend Center

Gulf Bend Mental Health is based in Victoria, Texas. They offer outpatient services for adults with severe conditions, like bipolar disorder or major depression. Additional programs include treatment for substance abuse for adults and teens. They also have residential housing and community support programs to help your recovery.

Their mental health and substance abuse programs consist of counseling, medication management, and lifestyle changes to create healthier outcomes. You’ll develop new skills to help you cope with stress and emotions, rather than resorting to drugs. Group support will be there to help lend an ear and shoulder should you need encouragement to fight a relapse.

If necessary, supportive housing is available for clients who need a stronger structure after they wrap up the program. For severe cases, including detox, you can be referred to an inpatient program.

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.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

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.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
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.

Treatments

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

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.

Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

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.

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.

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.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

When used as recommended, nicotine replacement therapy in Texas provides enough nicotine to help you avoid severe cravings and withdrawal symptoms after quitting smoking. This increases comfort so you're less likely to relapse into your smoking habit.

Haven't been on meds in years, I finally decided to get back on them and feel normal again. The process is a process, three steps before medications and diagnosed. Two different appointments,the third when is when I get prescribed medications I was told. Everyone along the way has been so warm and sweet I think her name was Harley something with an h first woman I had talked to. She listened to everything I had to say with concern making sure to get everything down. Very warm and friendly. second woman named Ashley was so sweet and down to earth, very concerned as well was the first Lady, she made sure to write everything down so I could get the help I need. I'm very hopefully on getting on the correct medications and going towards being a more better me. Thank you Gulf bend!

Never will I recommend or even think twice about having to go to this place. First intake appt was walk in so I got there early . I was the first one for it and we had to wait 5 hours to be put in for an appt. Something about a mess up at the front desk. I had been sitting there and asking them what's going on . They just kept saying someone will be with you . This was for my 7 year old son who has a DX for ADHD and ODD already . Thank goodness I can control his behavior. It took 10 minutes to put in whatever was needed . We didn't even see a provider. Drove back home . We don't live in Victoria so it was a 45 minute drive one way . Next appt came 4 months later and it was a telemed appt with a 7 year old with ADHD . How ignorant was that and I was never given a heads up. All the Dr did was try to prescribe additional meds to help him sleep at night. This was supose to be a re-evaluation to make sure his current DX is upto date and correct. We, what I thought had, a scheduled follow up appt with the same Dr for a face to face appt. I found someone local and much more adequate for my son's needs so I called to cancel the appt . Well guess what it was never made even though I had a slip showing appt made, in their computer it was not. Thank goodness I didn't drive to Victoria to give the office a 3rd chance. That place is a joke and a waist of time. Find somewhere that is willing to take the time to actually treat the patient. This place is a fckery for sure.
