The Last Resort Recovery Center

The Last Resort Recovery Center is located on a 55 acre campus of rolling pastures in Austin, Texas. They’re CARF-accredited, and they offer mental health and substance use disorder treatment programs. This is a men-only treatment facility where they address issues that are specific to men. They offer a comprehensive list of services including inpatient (IP) and outpatient (OP) drug rehab treatment programs. They are in network with many major insurance companies.

The center treats most types of substance addictions, including alcohol, opiate, painkiller, heroin, meth, kratom, and polysubstance addiction. They have a detox program at the recovery center that offers medication assisted treatment. While going through the detox process, you’ll have access to support and evidence based treatments, including treatments for co-occurring disorders such as anxiety, depression, and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

While in the inpatient program, you’ll address the issues that led to your substance use. The issues could be external pressures such as a high stress career. They may also be from a co-occurring mental illness such as PTSD or depression. You’ll be in a safe environment to express your needs and vulnerabilities. You’ll have individual and group therapy, recreation therapy, and other activities for men. There are also experiential therapies, such as equine therapy where you work with horses.

The center has a partial hospitalization program (PHP) as continued support after inpatient treatment or if inpatient treatment isn’t the best option for your situation. The PHP is an intensive program you can attend while living at home or in a sober living arrangement. You’ll have access to all of the same types of therapy as you would as an inpatient.

Some of the therapies are especially helpful to men, such as rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT). This is a type of therapy that helps you identify your self sabotaging thoughts and replace them with rational, more helpful thinking patterns. The PHP offers accountability, recovery coaching, and a wellness program to help you on your sober journey.

If you’re dealing with an addiction but you can’t stop working or attending college, they have a regular outpatient program. No matter which program you choose, you’ll have continued care support through an aftercare program.

Inpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.
