Devereux provided behavioral health services to address your mental health issues and substance use disorder treatment. They specialized in services for youth and young adults, especially those with mental health, substance use and issues with housing displacement.
They featured multi-levels of care, including special education programs for the developmentally challenged, residential treatment for those requiring 24/7 supervision as well as employment services to help youth meet their goals of acquiring and sustaining gainful employment. They also offered acute care if you or your loved one are in need of crisis support due to mental health issues or substance use addiction.
It was neat that they had plenty of amenities for residents. A gym, dining hall and playground were featured onsite. They also featured a conference center and plenty of open space for your quiet reflection and meditation during off hours.
Devereux was focused on providing trauma-informed care to all individuals who needed assistance. They offered services to youth at their time of need and were committed for the duration of their lifetime. They also provided therapy services to youth in foster care and to youths who were referred to their program by the judicial system.
Services were provided to you through a highly qualified team of clinicians and professionals including psychiatrists, nurses, teachers and program managers. They also had their own school onsite that provides educational programs for their clients.
Additionally, recreation is intrinsic to their therapy programs. For inpatient care, clients could have participated in daily therapeutic recreational activities supervised and led by a therapeutic recreation specialist.
Our Methodology
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.
Inpatient 
Medically Assisted Detox 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.
Alcoholism occurs when a person becomes physically and psychologically dependent on alcohol. Attending a professional alcohol rehab in Texas can provide customized intervention methods to address the physical, mental, and relational challenges of addiction.
During rehab in Texas, you'll deal with underlying issues that contribute to addiction. By addressing these challenges and learning healthy ways to cope with them, you'll develop strategies that help you live a drug-free lifestyle.
Texas's specialized dual-diagnosis addiction treatment programs prioritize comprehensive care for individuals with co-occurring substance use disorders and mental health conditions. These programs offer diverse levels of care, including outpatient, inpatient, and partial hospitalization options. Evidence-based therapies, trauma-informed care, group work, and educational workshops help treat both conditions at the same time and give you the tools to sustain mental health and sobriety.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.
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.
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.
Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.
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.
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.
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.
Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.
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.

I spent 20 months and 26 days at Devereux in Victoria Texas, starting in 1968, when I was 14 years old. I spent a considerable amount of time in an isolation cell on four separate occasions; once for six days another time for 32 days, once more for 45 days and the last time ...
I was in Victoria tx 1984-1985 this horrible place has left me with lasting scars from my time here. There staff was awful never actually doing an supervision unless fights broke out the federal us trash but charged $17.50 per meal the abuse of teacher kids to make a neutral ...
I was there for 4years I was only 10 years old they drugged me up and slammed me on the floor I would say don’t take your kids there the staff are not but do stuff when there’s no cameras and the staff have a group of kids that will hurt you kid and the kids don’t get in trouble you do. The kids are bad just like the staff and when u go to make a complaint the staff doesn’t get in trouble you do so the staff can hurt you and you have to go to the hospital and the staff won’t be fired or in trouble he will keep working there I was minding my own business and this staff punch me in the face and then said I fell when I didn’t so please don’t take your kids there
Lived here as a child honestly hated it alot of the staff were really mean we had a select few that actually were nice constantly had fighting bc they didnt know how to diffuse situations the therapists honestly sucked got lice multiple times from there it was also quite dirty managment sucked aswell they would pick at kids who had major anger problems to get them riled up (know from experience with them) honestly think the staff there at the time liked seeing kids in there and being hateful to them for no reason the only plus is the trips and public school
I was here years ago I I’m so traumatized I’m only 14 now at the time I was 9/10 I have a friend that is so traumatized that he stopped talking to me and any one that was with I’m don’t go to any of there placements I repeat don’t go to any placements
I’m just gonna say I’m scarred for life from this place DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE I was there from age 8-13 and was severely abused and I tried to escape multiple times but it was pointless they don’t allow u to contact your family or even see them this is the worst possible place to send your child I left this place with PTSD IF U LOVE YOUR CHILD DO NOT SEND THEM HERE
i have gone here before. so many of the staff quit because they were bullied by other staff and they didn't want to see the kids there get hurt anymore by staff. we were abused and hurt
My daughter has been injured repeatedly from the staffing.
I be seeing y'all soon I didn't forget what y'all did to me as a kid I repeat don't be sending no more kids here y'all hiring wrong people to work there
I was there for a year in 1980-81 when I was 15. The only good thing was that they took us on some trips from time to time, and I met several friends while there. But I read several of the other reviews, and I do have to agree with them. Looking back on it, they did mishandle the kids and often drugged them up. Luckily, I never got on meds, but many others did. The education there was absolutely awful which put me a grade behind. Most of the staff had very little if any compassion on the kids including me, nor did they really help people there in any positive way. Oh, do they still lock people up in isolation this current day like they did back then? Now, at age 53 and from a Christian point of view, kids and even adults who have mental disorders need loving and understanding as well as encouragement. Looking back, it really was an awful place.
Cps took my daughter Angelina from me and forced her to live here.. One more year till she's 18. 8 cannot wait for my baby to be back in my arms. Hang in there Manjo! Momma loves you!
