About MHMR of Tarrant County

Formerly known as Community Addiction Treatment Services (CATS), My Health My Resources of Tarrant County (MHMRTC)’s Substance Use Services Program provides an array of addiction treatment programs for adolescents and adults in Fort Worth, Texas. This program incorporates prevention and education services to help stop addiction before it takes root. They offer ambulatory detox services, residential and outpatient treatment, HIV testing services, and housing for veterans in recovery. They accept self payment using a sliding scale fee, private insurance, Medicare, and Medicaid.

As there are so many treatment options available, clients start by calling the program’s ICARE Call Center for a short interview. This is a 24/7 hotline that helps clients find the help they need. For example, you may be linked to crisis intervention, emergency mental health care, relapse prevention services, and other forms of support. If you need to detox before beginning other forms of treatment, you can do so through outpatient or residential detoxification. This may include the use of addiction medications, including buprenorphine and naloxone, to make the process more comfortable.

Their treatment services focus on the physical, mental, and emotional aspects of addiction. There are age specific and gender specific programs that include life skills training, counseling, and parenting courses. There is also relapse prevention planning. Adults in residential treatment will live at the 50-bed Pine Street Rehabilitation Center. Male youth can attend residential treatment at the 16-bed Youth Recovery Campus.

Clients appreciate that the program offers specialized services for disabled clients and that they truly focus on providing individualized care. Staff members are attentive and responsive, and can help you enroll in the treatment best suited for your needs.

In my opinion as a former patient who received both services related to detoxing from narcotics such as opioids/opiates, as well as drug rehabilitation for 28 days, the program(s) available at that location are decent to say the least but when it comesto the topic of recovery your never successful by gaining accomplishment of doing so until your 100 percent ready & a lot of people temporarily residing on/at Pine St. or have lived inside the building s dorms in the past (staying there multiple times is a subject you never have to worry about as far as judgement from the counselors goes) tend to blame those employed by MHMR for their failures even though obviously its not the right thing to do when it comes to them pointing fingers at their support system they are offered once accepted into this specific treatment which is available to anyone who s seeking to get help for their substance abuse but don t know where else to turn. The interior is kept clean for the most part by the residents receiving assistance for a month, so if your having any thoughts about sanitaryissues then dont because theres no necessary reason too. One ordeal I constantly was bothered by was the fact that every morning your being woken up to the repeated sounds of Good morning! Rise and shine its time for breakfast being constantly yelled by whoever is working the morning shift that day.

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

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.
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.
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).
aftercare iconAftercare Support
Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Treatments

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.

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.

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.

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.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
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.
hiv-aids-program thumbnail image
HIV/AIDS Program
HIV/AIDS programs support disease prevention and management in high-risk individuals in recovery. Individuals who engage in intravenous drug use and other addictive behaviors are at a higher risk of becoming infected with HIV. Rehab centers that specialize in treating this population typically have a high number of nurses, physicians, and psychiatrists on staff who can make sure both their medical and mental health needs are met.
military-program thumbnail image
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).
program-for-men thumbnail image
Program For Men
Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.
program-for-women thumbnail image
Program For Women
Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
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

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.

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.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

The Tobacco Cessation Program will help you increase your confidence, learn effective problem-solving skills, anticipate triggers, lessen withdrawal symptoms, maintain motivation, increase social support and avoid weight gain. Treatment is effective and can make a huge difference in your health and the health of our community.

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.

The staff at MHMR were the first to listen to me and actually diagnose me based on what I was telling them. They were the first to not over-medicate me or try to sell me treatment. They listen, they care, and they are SO professional even when dealing with what the general public gives them. Dr. Skaggs undoubtedly saved my life. Not necessarily through the medication provided, but through her care of understanding my symptoms and what was causing/aggravating them. She helped me overcome problems I ve attempted to seek treatment for over 8 years, in 4 phone calls. Seems wild, but I am forever grateful and I will continue to be an actively productive citizen as they have helped me to become again, in sharing my story, helping others, and voting in local elections to ensure these services reach everyone who needs them.

They're ok. If you stay at one of the shelters you can bring a letter proving it and get services here, free if you have no income. They'll have snack bags and sometimes bus passes if you meet with your case manager.

The supervisor who runs the office is, how should I put this lightly, out of touch with the nature of their work. Empathy; not sure she knows how to spell it much less live it. She s more concerned with arbitrary rules than she is with the end mission and goal of this place. She will assume the worst in anyone there, and treat them as if they are receiving punishment, not treatment. The rest of the staff though I can truly say is amazing. If it was not for her I would be giving 6 stars because of the hard work put in bully the likes of Lisa, Karl, Cathrine, and many others. There s plenty of great people they could promote into her place and improve this location and it s effectiveness.
