About Nova Recovery Center Drug and Alcohol Rehab – Austin, TX

Nova Recovery Center offers a full range of treatment options for adults struggling with substance use disorders. Their continuum of care includes medical detox, inpatient rehabilitation and supportive/intensive outpatient programs.

They have an incredible reputation for quality and personalized care. Their accreditation by the Joint Commission confirms this commitment to quality. Their gender specific rehab programs offer separate living and treatment spaces for men and women. This minimizes distractions helps you focus on recovery.

The program begins with a comprehensive assessment and individualized treatment planning. This is followed by medical detox, inpatient rehabilitation and outpatient therapy. Detoxing takes place in their structured and highly therapeutic detox unit. It involves a carefully managed withdrawal procedure with 24/7 monitoring by trained clinical personnel. These experts may administer meds if necessary to minimize withdrawal symptoms.

They also provide counseling and therapy sessions to help you manage the emotional and psychological aspects of withdrawal. Nutritious meals and dietary supplements are equally supplied to help your body heal and regain strength. Depending on your unique condition the detox may last 24 hours to a few days. Their clinical team will assist your transition to inpatient rehabilitation when you’re stabilized and in good health. This program is led by caring clinical professionals who provide 24/7 guidance, support and personalized care.

They offer group and individual therapy that draws from clinically proven methods. This includes cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy. These models promote healthier thinking patterns, emotional regulation and coping skills that prevent relapse and sober living. Family involvement is emphasized and they provide family counseling to mend relationships and improve communication with loved ones. This creates a positive family dynamic that strengthens your support network.

You’ll participate in educational workshops to gain valuable skills and knowledge that support your recovery journey and personal growth. These workshops may cover coping strategies, relapse prevention and healthy living. The program also integrates holistic approaches like mindfulness practices, stress management techniques and wellness activities to support your overall wellbeing. The goal is to heal the body, mind and spirit. The length of residential treatment may depend on your unique condition and recovery progress.

You can continue your recovery journey via their outpatient program to achieve lasting sobriety. Folks seeking flexible therapeutic support for moderate to mild symptoms can also benefit from their outpatient care. The most compelling quality of this program is the flexibility and convenience it offers. The therapy sessions include evening and weekend schedules to accommodate work, school and family commitments.

The intensive outpatient option is slightly more structured. It may involve up to nine hours of therapy sessions weekly compared to about 90 minutes for the supported outpatient program. That said, both programs essentially use the same therapeutic models as inpatient rehabilitation. The facility offers ongoing support to help you maintain sobriety after completing the outpatient program. This includes ongoing counseling, support groups and connections to community resources like stable housing and job opportunities.

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.
inpatient iconInpatient
Inpatient rehab programs are geared toward clients in early recovery. They also provide intensive support for clients in crisis and those at an increased relapse risk. Clients receive housing and meals while in inpatient care, allowing them to focus solely on their recovery. Most programs prioritize addiction counseling but may draw on various psychotherapeutic modalities, including CBT, DBT, RBT, trauma therapy, and motivational interviewing. Life skills training and holistic therapies are also common in inpatient care.
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 Support
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.
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.

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.

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 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.

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.
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.
seniors-program thumbnail image
Seniors Program
Nearly one million adults age 65 and older live with a substance use disorder. Treatment providers who specialize in senior care understand the social, psychological, and physical effects of aging and how they relate to recovery. They can help clients address particular challenges and risks they may face as they get older such as overdosing and medication interactions and dependencies.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

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.

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 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.

Couples therapy helps couples learn to control emotions, trust each other, and communicate more effectively. It can be useful for short term intervention for a specific issue or for working on the relationship long term.

eye-movement iconEye Movement Desensitization And Reprocessing

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 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.

Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

Long story short, 35 years of hard drinking landed me in a ditch in a city I'm not even from. But I thank GOD every day for it! My desperation for change got me to Briarwood detox center. I was so scared but I was unusually willing to do anything, the night before waking up in that ditch I was contemplating suicide, again. For so many years I watched my life fall apart time and time again, over and over. I really never understood why I was unable to control my drinking. Leaving Briarwood and while being transported to Nova recovery center I didn't know what to expect but my anger and anxiety were already building. I still can't get over how amazing Nova looks, it pretty much relaxes you the minute you arrive! I had never been to "rehab" before so I was blown away by the beauty of the amenities and the attentive staff. So with that said, I was sweet and grateful to be there for about 48 hours and then I started being the walking talking character defect stage character I was, telling everyone how they should do their jobs and finding things, if not inventing things to complain about. I still get embarrassed sometimes of my actions and comments I made the first weeks of my stay. But what stands out is how the staff didn't even blink! I never got the reaction I would of deserved! I was loved on! I was given understanding and compassion! They treated me like the sick person who needed help, that I was! They dug in and held me accountable with truth and what I referrer to as grace. The Recovery specialist who work with us, for us and teach us vital solutions to my disease of alcoholism that I will be forever grateful for. From the frequent individual counseling sessions to the daily group counseling classes to the, "hey I need to talk!", I received an understanding of how to maintain my life of sobriety! Nova is a very important and special place to me so I could really go on and on but the main point I want to testify about is this, I'm truly a better person today because of the dedication to helping people by the Nova recovery family!Sincerely,Dustin

I loved the house I stayed in. The pics that are shown are only guy side (lucky men). I truly loved this time and needed it. However, I never was able to speak to a therapist for more than 2 timesWe drink and take drugs because no one cares about us. I understand staying sober, but how am I supposed to do this when we are still depressed. Rehab needs more therapists.

I really needed some accountability and to be around other sober people after a relapse on alcohol in August. I signed up for the online IOP service and my counselor was Jasmine. She was amazing. I found myself looking forward to group everyday and felt a great relief of wanting to use after group. It helped me stay sober and maintain abstinence from alcohol I am truly grateful for the program. Jasmine is amazing and I consider her a good friend at this point she was able to talk me out of using my stinking thinking a lot of times and evaluate my situations from another perspective, which helped me get away from the parts of me that contribute to relapse.

Nova is an amazing place for people who really want to recover from a hopeless state of mind and body. What I loved about my experience there was how much I learned, and the tools that I had when I left there. Treatment for me was never the sole solution, but what it did was provide me with an atmosphere for healing, and the tools to maintain sobriety. Ryan R. was my recovery specialist and I couldn t have asked for a better person to help guide me through the steps of recovery. The knowledge of the staff and their ability to do what s best for their clients (not always what the client thinks is best) is something which I admire. So many places want to sugar coat a life and death situation, which Nova does not.While a lot of treatment facilities focus on the amenities to bring people in, Nova focused on the ultimate goal, learning the solution for addiction.The place feels like a mini college campus in a very beautiful place. They plug you in to the recovery community through out your stay to help guide you once you leave. I recommend this place to family and friends who are looking for a place.

It's been a few years since I was a patient at Nova Recovery Center. Recently I have been reflecting on my time there and how incredibly grateful I am for the experience I had. I have been to 7 rehab facilities and Nova it always my recommendation for anyone seeking treatment. The staff were some of the most knowledgeable individuals I have come across. One particular individual Mark R. Helped me understand my disease and my real problem with life. If you have any interest in seeking treatment, Nova is the place to go. 100% God Bless Texas and Nova Recovery Center

I went to Nova almost 9 months ago and I wouldn t change it for the world. The staff when I first entered were very nice and welcoming. As a 19 year old that didn t know what I was getting myself into they welcomed me with open arms. All the RA s care about you and want you to succeed. Now when it comes to the recovery specialist, they all know what they are talking about. All of them work a very strong 12 step program and go through the steps with you. Having individual meetings with your RS really helped me understand the steps and what I need to do to stay sober. I thank Nova for saving my life and showing me a new way to live.

Nova was a blessing for me and my recovery. They really help you understand all aspects of your disease and help set you up for sobriety. I was very fortunate to have found a place that took great care of me and prepared me for my journey to live a life without alcohol.

I love Nova so freaking much. Nova has saved my life in more ways than one. I was hopeless and had no solution suffering from this disease. The staff there never gave up on me. I was the worst client and they loved me until I could love myself. Ryan, Jacqui and Cathy are literally the best mentors anyone could ask for. I'm over 10 months sober now, has a spiritual experience found God, repaired my relationships and am now in a place where I can be of service to other addicts and alcoholics. I'm forever grateful for the unconditional love compassion and accountability that was given to me there. Plus all the trauma work I did around PTSD and a mood disorder. 20 out of 10 recommended. Life is so worth living now. Below is the life Nova and God has given me
