I actually decided to come here to find a therapist or some kind of counselor who could help with my mental health issues, its now been almost a year and i still have not been assigned a therapist/ counselor and they have very poor communication skills. They will make an over the phone appointment to talk with you about everything and will completely forget to call you or even send a reminder. Its almost like they don t really care to heal your mental state, instead they want to keep you in the system for as long as possible taking medication that you obviously can tell is not doing anything regarding mood. I also wanted to add that the first day i came here ..not really knowing how things worked and their procedures i was sitting for approximately 3 hours before anyone asked why i was even there and if i needed mental help. Ill never recommend this place to anyone no matter their situation, because they loooove to reschedule people over a month out from your original appointment (because they would said it will take forever because they have alot of other patients with MORE SEVERE CASE after they said that i was done forreal. Good luck on your mental health journey!

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.

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.

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.

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 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.
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.
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

The goal of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in Texas is to change thought patterns, which leads to changes in behavior. Specific techniques during CBT can include self talk, SMART goals, journaling, and positive activities.

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.

Accreditations

The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) is a non-profit organization that specifically accredits rehab organizations. Founded in 1966, CARF's, mission is to help service providers like rehab facilities maintain high standards of care.

CARF Accreditation: Yes

I went to the southwest clinic and had a pleasant visit until the lady named Sharon was so rude to me while checking out & scheduling my next appointment.She told me that I had to take a 10am appointment next month because that's when my doctor want me there...I asked her for a later appointment time or day because my schedule will be different in a month from now and I can't come early.She would not give me a different time or date. I've been going to The Harris Center since 2019 and the doctor has never told me what time to be there,so I don't believe her. I've mostly went to the Northwest clinic and they were great.I only started going to southwest because I moved.While I was waiting I saw her communications & unprofessionalism and the rolling of her eyes earlier when I said I don't have insurance. It seems like she takes mental health as a joke and is looking for conflict. I was so sick and tired and did not have the energy to go back and forth with her..But I hope she fixes her attitude. ( The therapist,doctor, phlebotomist, CNA and social workers were all professional and caring )

If it wasn t for my caseworker I do t know what I would do. She has made my experience at the Harris center tolerable. So many time I have wanted to give up. She has been very professional and caring unlike some of the others I have ran across. The housing supervisor has made it impossible to get assistance with rental assistance, he act like it s his money when the state clearly says it s for the clients.. Ms Venetric has talked me of the the ledge plenty a times, she has been very helpful with finding other resources for me. Thus far she is the only one I feel comfortable with in sharing my issues she has a caring soul. Ms V is a good one!

This service has been a great help for me throughout the years. One service that I'm extremely grateful for is therapy. My therapist is the cream of the crop. Been through thick and thin with me. Helped me in so may ways to not allow my mind to go to dark places when life gets to lifing. I would give it 5 stars but I never meet or spoken to my caseworker. I think I shouldn't have to hunt them down.
