Levels of Care

Outpatient Rehab
Attending outpatient treatment in Texas allows you to get evidence-based care without living in the facility, helping you establish long-term recovery. Finishing residential treatment is a big step, and outpatient care allows you to have support while you learn to apply your new skills and habits in real life situations.

Therapies

Individual Therapy
During individual therapy in Texas, clients work with a professional to address specific individual concerns. During individual therapy, you have the freedom and confidentiality to share personal issues and past experiences that may impact your substance use. Your therapist will help you work through those concerns and develop new ways of handling them.
Group Therapy
Attending group therapy in Texas is a way to overcome shame and isolation, helping you establish long-term recovery. Sessions generally last 60 to 90 minutes and give you a chance to discover others’ experiences, hear about the impact of substance use, and learn important new life skills.
