About Into Action Recovery Centers

Into Action Recovery Centers is a substance use disorder and mental health recovery center for adults in Houston, Texas. This facility uses evidence based treatment methods along with a 12 Step program. Into Action Recovery is CARF accredited.

This facility offers medically supervised detox. With medically supervised detox, you are under the care of experienced medical staff who know how to monitor you and do their best to keep you as comfortable as possible and safe while going through potentially dangerous withdrawals. Before your detox begins, they make a customized plan for you based on the substance or substances that you will be detoxing from.

After you have completed detox, you will move on to the next step of treatment. They offer residential and outpatient treatment. Residential treatment is offered in 30, 60, and 90 day programs. This facility can accommodate 48 clients in a family type atmosphere, while also providing recreation and gym outings. The day starts with spiritual development, then individual and group therapies, educational and life skills classes, and 12 Step meetings, with a couple of hours built in for leisure. The weekends are not as structured and allow for family to visit. They have 24 hour nursing care, along with counselors and psychiatrists.

The next step is a partial hospitalization program. This step generally lasts for four to six weeks. During this time, you will attend the center during the day but go home at night. You will attend five days a week for four to six hours a day, then return home. You will work on coping strategies, building relationships, mindfulness, the 12 Steps, group therapy and relapse prevention and education.

You will transition from partial hospitalization to intensive outpatient, which will meet three nights a week for ten to 12 weeks. This program gives you support while you transition back to your daily life.

Medical briefcase icon 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.

inpatient iconInpatient

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 iconIntensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) 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.

aftercare iconAftercare

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 icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

sober-living iconSober Living Homes

Residents of a sober living home in Texas reside at the halfway house with others who have agreed to abstain from substances and practice sober-living skills. The relationships and accountability formed here can help individuals strengthen their mental health and achieve long-term recovery. Residents share common spaces such as kitchens and back yards, share meals together, and share household responsibilities such as cooking and cleaning.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need

partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.

24-hour icon24-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 iconMedically 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.

Heart icon Treatment

check iconDual Diagnosis

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.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

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.

dialectical iconDialectical 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 iconEquine Therapy

intervention iconGroup Therapy

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.

mental-health iconIndividual 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.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

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.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

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.

family iconFamily Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

life-skills iconLife 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.

recreational-therapy iconRecreational Therapy

Addiction recovery treatment in Texas will offer recreational therapy in a holistic approach to treatment. Therapy incorporates enjoyable activities that support your physical and mental health, such as team sports, creative arts, or individual sports. This activity gives you an emotional outlet, reduces your stress, and improves your mood, each of which promotes long term sobriety.

nicotine iconNicotine Replacement Therapy

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.

Check icon Accreditations

Would NOT recommend this place if you truly care about your loved ones mental health and well being. The counselors are extremely disrespectful and out of place to family members, hangs up on family when requesting information. Counselor stated they did not focus on mental health issues and that the family should talk to said loved one within their facility.Truly a waste of time and money.Do not let your loved ones near this place.

Hi Liz, I am so sorry that you did not have a great experience at our facility. I would love to have a call to understand more and even have you meet me personally at our office for specific examples. Any client that has any issue here whatsoever deserves the opportunity to be heard. I will also personally bring about an investigation if warranted and if punitive measures have to be taken, you can believe that they will be. Either way I am available to discuss your experience and would love to get your feedback so I can learn how we can do better if that is the case. Give us a call at 832.224.4783 and ask for me personally. Thank you Liz and I hope to hear from you in the very near future. -Shane Leonard, CEO

I just celebrated 2 years of sobriety. I owe it all to God, and IARC. Just like several others, this facility saved my life. The things I learned about myself, and how powerless I was over alcohol really opened my eyes, mind, and soul. Since I ve been sober I still go back to IARC to tell my story, and meet the new clients. I want to give them hope, and to let them know the program WORKS IF YOU WORK IT! Does that sound familiar ? I m very proud of anyone who needs help, and seeks it. May God Bless You

Congratulations on your 2 years of sobriety, Sidney! We're honored to have been part of your journey and are inspired by your commitment to giving back. Thank you for continuing to share your story and spreading hope to others.

First and only time I ve gone to a recovery center was here. Got out in late August 2023 and things have been great ever since. The place isn t perfect but what place is? Had my issues with IARC while I was there but realized immediately after leaving how much of a bubble it is and that my complaints were pretty baseless. In hindsight, it was a great program with great staff. Gave me the tools and knowledge I needed to live a clean and happy life. Thanks y all!

Response from the owner2 months ago
Thank you for sharing your experience, Erin. We re glad to hear that despite the initial challenges, you found value in the program and the support from our staff. It s wonderful to know that you're now living a clean and happy life. We wish you continued success on your journey!!

IARC saved my life! The entire staff is amazing and really care about each and every client. I have maintained the strong bonds formed with my brothers and sisters in sobriety while I was in the in-residential treatment program and I embrace the new family I gained from my time there. If anyone is looking for a real recommendation, well here it is. Making the decision to go to rehab is sometimes hard for those that are lost in that dark place, but I am extremely glad that I took a leap of faith and went to Into Action. It was the best decision I've made in the last 15 years of my life. Thank you Shane, Paul, Rachel, Zack, Brook, Nurse Annie, Nurse Lori, ALL of the RA's, and everyone at the center for tolerating me through the hard parts (hurricane Drea) and loving me through it all until I found God and myself again! Much love and keep doing what y'all are doing in Houston! It works...it really does!

The facility, food, and basic stuff is fine. Nursing staff is great. I met some really good fellow patients with the usual assortment of jerks. My drug counselor was really good. I believe overall they care about your recovery. The issue is the mandatory groups. Coloring books for art therapy. Watching youtube music videos for music therapy. Watching Oprah videos for life skill class. Meditation group is guess a YouTube meditation video. The least optimal aspect for me was 12 step daily groups. It s run by outside untrained people and without going into details it did not improve my mental health, rather the opposite. While I complained about this and some improvements were made my last week I found the groups were still so unstructured my mental health was impacted. I was not given an option not to attend and asked to sign an agreement that my attendance was required with threat my treatment would be terminated. I checked myself out that night.Nonetheless I m happy I attended IARC. I think you can get what you need there. It wasn t a good fit for me. I get my 30 day chip tomorrow and I thank my counselor and the staff and other patients for their support.

Response from the owner10 months ago
Thank you for your honest and fair review . We are required to fulfill the program requirements that the state outlines for us . But , the most important aspect of our program is making sure you get what you need.I appreciate RTC your perspective and we will use your feedback to get better ! Congratulations on your successful journey so far and you are welcome to come meet with me and maybe discuss these items and we can talk about things we could do better at to improve the clients overall experience.
