About Texas Clinic Fulton – Government Funded Addiction Treatment Center, Suboxone, Methadone and Vivitrol Clinic

Texas Clinic offers outpatient treatment to help people with opioid use issues heal and regain control of their lives. They have two facilities in Houston, Texas. That includes this location on Fulton Street which is wholly funded by the government.

They’re easy to access via public transportation including METRORail’s Red Line and multiple METRO bus routes. It’ll take you roughly 15 minutes to get there from downtown Houston via I-45 if you’re driving. People from nearby Aldine and Spring can easily access and receive care here as well.

The clinic offers a safe, clean and positive space to start healing. The best thing about them is that you can receive treatment for opioid addiction or alcoholism at little or no cost. Remember, they’re funded by the government. They provide targeted care through medication assisted treatment. This technique allows FDA meds to work alongside counseling to ensure full recovery.

The facility may prescribe methadone, Suboxone or Vivitrol depending on your individualized care plans. These meds work to limit withdrawal symptoms and alleviate cravings. You can then participate in counseling to handle the social, behavioral and psychological issues fueling your opioid use. You’ll also learn practical life skills that promote a sober lifestyle and prevent relapse.

Combining meds and behavioral therapy offers an integrated approach that has proven effective in treating opioid use. The technique ensures holistic healing and ushers you into a new life free from drugs or alcohol.

Texas Clinic equips you with all the resources needed for full recovery. Their clinicians are friendly, caring and experienced. Past clients only have beautiful things to say about the clinic. Their accreditation by the Joint Commission further validates their commitment to quality care.

This place is nice and government funded so its free for methadone. Ms Judy the counselor has always been understandable and kind and caring towards my husband. The only issue is the hours change from tues-thurs 6am for dose?. For the people that have to be at work at 6 how do they dose? Alot of people end up going back to using because of the hours. Alot of people cant afford the methadone that has a weekly fee. They are helping the people that dont work or people that work after 6am. it is what it is.

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically 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.

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.
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

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 offers you a confidential space to address the complexities of your drug or alcohol addiction. Your therapist guides these personalized sessions to help develop self awareness and manage stress. This promotes sustained sobriety and overall well being.

Always helped me no matter how many times I would start and stop then they drew a line because of the government funding and I was not able to come everyday when I totaled my car... so 3 months later I have a new car and they let me come back instead of. Making me wait. Until January of next year... thank god this program if you take it seriously saves life's and help you transition into a normal functioning member of society!! Without a miserable experiences from withdrawals... that's the reason I would not stop doing opioids I did not have the time nor did I want to go through the withdrawal pain or aches... they are so so so terrible... wow and not just you feeling like you have the flu times 100 you can't sleep for about a month.. Who wants to go through that and who has the time to go through that? I know I don't. I have to work in order to put food on my table, but this is a great program and it really helps if you really want to stop spending all your money and worrying about when you're gonna get your next fixed or if you're gonna be feeling sick, you know every day you're gonna feel good and you're not gonna be sick and you don't have to spend all your money on whatever you used

I hate to disagree with others here. But I have noticed that most of the time the way you end up feeling about someone depends on how you have treated them or how hard you have pushed them. We don't pay them to treat us like babies. We pay them to offer a service. And they catch a lot of hell from people who tend to get way to angry when they can't have it their way. It s not Burger King! These guys have a lot of work to do in a very short time and they do have rules they have to abide by. A lot of rules. And they can't break them just because someone wants them to. So not everything can be perfect for everybody in that kind of setting. Just imagine having to be Art, or Lucille and doing their job for one day with all the paperwork, meds to fill, U.A.'s to keep up wirh, requests, and irate patients. They deal with it as well as can be expected, I think. I am nice to them. Always have been and they have always been good to me. If I need something sure I ask. But I do not get angry if they cannot do it. I accept it knowing that if they could do it they probably would. They're not bad people just for adhering to the rules. Do your job right, keep it. That's how it works. And all three of those workers have been respectful and as helpful as they can to me. Even when I do something stupid like forgetting to call ahead when I'm supposed to. Sometimes I wonder what this world is coming to. Its like everyone has a false sense of entitlement and I hate to be harsh but it makes them just flat out rude, jerks. Especially to office workers, nursed, drs, or anyone else trying to do a job right. And especially in the car. To other drivers and people who work at drive thru's. We are none of us royalty. We are normal people. And America would be so much better if we would put ourselves back in our place and remember we are no better than anyone. And the people with hectic jobs like this one, deserve our respect. Not criticizm. My last name is Davis by the way if anyone wants to call me out because my review is from me, and NOBODY put me up to this.Now I need to edit. There is a wonderful new building now, an officer on duty for our safety. Plus, a guy (I m sorry I forget your name) who sits in the lobby with us, and he sets the T.V. He changes the video if we ask, sometimes. He converses with us. He makes us all feel like people. Nancy is always a joy, as are the nurses and the counselors. Maybe I need to make a new review for the new staff, cause they re doing a great job, and they deserve credit for it, just like the old ones. Oh, lol and we all know about Dewayne. He s a hoot.

Highly recommend this place! If you were in my position and on mat. I moved to midtown and transferred from my home clinic to another clinic where I was paying ot of pocket weekly. Like you should. Unfortunately I fell massively behind, losing my job and health just declined. I was threatened of being detoxed 10mg daily until 0! Mind you being on mat since 2019 of a certain amount, would put you through hell of withdrawals! I'd wake up every morning sick just from the stress of knowing what's coming at 6am.... putting every penny I got to my balance not getting any better.A friend told me about texas clinic, where if your not insured you may qualify for the funded program. I did. I cannot tell you the weight off my shoulders. Nancy at the front is amazing, as well as Ms river and Ms Betty. They are helpful! Also if you live downtown the redline train drops you right infront of the clinic. Ty TC!!

This place would have been wonderful until they turned there back on me..I moved here 3 years ago with my husband to get clean and we was on the program for a year we was clean then 1 day they said I failed a drug test and took away the take home days I worked so hard for something I earned and they took it away from me so I refused to sign it and sent my drug test back for better testing well it came back and said I failed for morphine and when I seen that I threw a fit because for 1 I can not take it..it s in my medical chart at my primary care doctor that I can t take it and then I also knew of 2 other people that got the same false positives and these people didn t do anything wrong either so I threatened to call a lawyer because I KNOW FOR A FACT IT WAS WRONG so they kicked me out mean while I m withdrawing from methadone so I relapsed I tried to get back off of it 2 times by going to a different clinic but it took forever to get moved up to my correct dose so I was still using so it was pointless in going anymore..I want to be clean so so bad I ve called Texas clinic a few times over a year span asking for another chance promising I won t be rude I won t have outburst and they told me flat out no..Then I have a recovery coach try to talk to them because this clinic was the only one I was successful in and they told her I could come back after it s been a year..so I wait a couple of weeks and go up there today thinking I actually had a shot in beating this thing again for them to turn me away over something I said that i didn t follow through with it more than broke my heart it was like a gut punch in disbelief I ve begged and pleaded for another chance and promised I d be on my best behavior and that my husband would be with me so they would know for sure I was serious about my recovery but my husband is allowed to get help but I m not I don t understand how this is right how this is fair I apologized for my mistakes and I ve changed in so many ways in a year and I get denied a chance at a normal life everyone deserves a 2nd chance especially when it comes to someone choosing to LIVE!!!!!!

The head manager is extremely rude, impatient, condescending, and has zero empathy for anyone trying to better their lives.Yelled at me and shamed me for me trying to better myself and telling her my story.Treated me like I was like I was doing something wrong when I was just clearly just trying to gather information on getting clean.Her tone and the way she acted was completely unprofessional, clear signs of her under a certain stress she s incapable of handling, and it s obviously trickling down into her work (which is helping human lives looking for help).All the other staff I spoke with was very sweet, professional and extremely helpful information with kindness in every conversation. I truly feel bad for staff having to deal with that tightly wound drill Sargent.I sincerely, hope her higher-ups see this and listen to the recording of our conversation. And maybe they should listen to listen to other conversations as well. I m doubt I m the only one, there are much more people in worse situations than me and she acted like an angry football coach for telling her where I m at in life.We need people that understand the struggles of addiction to run these organizations, not just people that read about them on a text book!

Thank you for posting this We wish we could have helped you through our Admin and upper management. The head manager you speak of is not a manager but is more than likely a case worker whom we have identified. We shall take appropriate measure so this doesn t happen again. Please ask for the Admin next time you are there so that we can get more details and personally address your concerns.
