About The Harris Center Northwest Community Service Center

The Northwest Service Center is part of the Harris Center network. They’re based in Houston, Texas, and have outpatient care for substance abuse and mental health issues. They primarily serve adults and selected clients under court order. Children and juveniles may be referred to other Harris Center sites.

Their outpatient program primarily features traditional counseling and therapy. There’s a case management team made up of nurses, physicians, and social workers to coordinate your care. Approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy, substance abuse education, and learning new life skills. Medication management is also offered, and harm reduction kits may be available.

In addition to therapy, social services are also available. You may be eligible for housing, basic necessities, job training and placement, and programs to limit your tobacco use. Transportation to and from the center is also featured if your mobility is limited.

The substance abuse program also includes detox, although it is housed in another facility in Houston. Space is limited with only eight beds available. You can be referred to the program if your condition is acute.

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.

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.

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.

mental-health iconMental Health

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.

Cognitive Behavior Therapy

dialectical iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

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.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

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.

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.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

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 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.

Check icon Accreditations

CARF

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.

They scheduled my relative to go in at 11:30 am; however, they ended up going to lunch right before the appointment. My first impression of this place is very bad, very unprofessional and clearly not geared towards helping. We are business owners and would never treat our clients this way. No excuses.

I had the most appalling experience at this place. I m not going to identify my self because of the security reasons but Not only thry were disorganized, but their level of professionalism was abysmal. The staff at the business office were rude and unhelpful, even going so far as to hang up on me during a crucial moment. As a result of their incompetence, I'm now facing a few days without my necessary medication. It's utterly unacceptable and demonstrates a complete disregard for the well-being of their patients. Steer clear of this place if you value your mental health. They told me to call emergency if i m going crazy without the pills. The doctor is out of town not the doctor s fault, but i paid for the full amount of the pills I was supposed to receive, but they only gave me 20 of the 30 pills told me to call back when there was 5 of them remaining now when i call them they tell me to wait 8 days till the doctor returns or go to an Emergency. I like how they make a mistake and don t take responsibility. This pill actually effects on my daily basis functioning! Doesn t recommend this place at all!

Beware of Dr. Zhong. He does not listen to you, won t remember anything you say, and stutters through every sentence. He interrupts a lot too. On top of that, he cut me off of my antidepressant that I ve been on for over 4 years without good reason and wouldn t even taper me off of it. It s not even a narcotic or anything dangerous, it s one of the safest and most common antidepressants. I believe he is a danger to medicine and anyone looking to improve their mental health.
