Residential addiction treatment covers live-in programs for drug and alcohol addiction, often alongside mental health care. You stay at the facility for weeks or months, with a full schedule of therapy and support and staff available at all hours.
It suits people who have not been able to stop with outpatient care, whose home environment makes recovery harder, or who simply need a reset away from daily pressures.
What to expect
- Evidence-based therapies such as CBT and motivational interviewing
- 24-hour staff and a structured, substance-free setting
- Peer support and 12-step or non-12-step options
- Care for co-occurring anxiety, depression or trauma
Before you choose residential addiction treatment
Texas licenses two residential intensities. Intensive residential programs average at least 30 hours of services per client each week, while supportive residential programs provide at least 6 hours and often serve people stepping down from more intensive care.
