About Omega Recovery

Omega Recovery Services is an accredited dual diagnosis outpatient treatment center in Austin, Texas. Located on Evergreen Avenue, it’s just minutes away from Zilker Botanical Garden, the Colorado River, and all the exciting activities in Downtown Austin. The facility helps individuals recover from addictions to substances and technology.

Intensive Therapies for Long Term Sobriety

Clients will have a selection of helpful therapies to receive in the intensive outpatient program. The counselors will utilize evidence based treatment such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy. You’ll learn coping skills to manage your stress and develop motivation to change your behavior.

Some additional unique therapeutic approaches that I like they provide are Japanese Karate, somatic therapy, and nature immersion. These treatments can benefit you by showing you new activities to manage your stress and find enjoyment in life.

You can continue your enjoyment of nature outside of treatment sessions by visiting local nature areas in town, such as the Mckinney Falls State Park. The facility also offers yoga 12 step education and mindfulness meditation as treatment options. The various substance use addictions that Omega Recovery Services treats include addictions to alcohol, opioids, and illicit substances.

Gaining Relief From Tech Addiction

In addition to receiving treatment for substance use disorder, the facility also offers assistance to individuals who are addicted to technology. These can include addictions to online pornography, social media and cell phones. Clients will participate in a digital detox and work with a masters level therapist to uncover the underlying cause of their issues.

When I found Omega, I was desperate for help. I’m a single mom, and had just taken my partner to a treatment center of his own. I spent the first week or so of being here insisting that it wasn’t gonna work, just seeing as I’ve been in and out of treatment for 11 years now. But, I’ve been here 4 weeks today and I’m so much farther now than I ever thought I could be. I have to thank all the staff for their continued support and encouragement, and even patience, while I’ve struggled and fought to get to where I am now. I’m on track to get back to my kids and I’m so looking forward to “restarting” my life now that I’m healthier mentally than I’ve felt in, quite honestly, as long as I can remember. Words will never quite be able to describe or express my gratitude towards Omega and its staff for all the love they’ve shown to me and everyone else I’ve met since I got here. I’ve been able to speak with my kids on a semi-consistent basis, my therapist has been so supportive and helpful, and everyone has been able to sit down and listen/talk with me when I need it. I can’t think of a better center than here for my situation as a parent with two little ones at home. They’re my reason for coming here and all the staff have been so understanding about that, and have used my love for them to push me to do better and BE better so I can go home and truly be the mother my babies deserve.

When my family dropped me off at Omega Recovery with 14 years sober, I wasn't sure I was in the right place. I knew I hated myself on a very deep level and was suffering from crippling panic attacks. The staff was very welcoming and the people whom I didn't know from Adam would soon become like family in some way. We got up everyday and made our own food, did our own laundry, and had to take care of ourselves vs. the traditional rehabilitation experience where it can feel like a catered event. I showed up here a broken man with many questions and no answers. I am so thankful that my Therapist was in the room when I would talk because she would listen to what I said closely. I openly admitted to her that my actions were that of someone who would be classified as insane, and she was thankful she didn't even have to convince me of it. I emerged myself in this program and the work and I get out of it what I put into it everyday. The skills I've learned here coupled with the actions I am taking on a daily basis are truly making a difference in my thought life. I will forever be grateful for every Technician, Staff member, Therapist & Director at Omega Recovery. They helped me cross the threshold and helped alter the course of my life. If you're reading this, I hope you don't hesitate to come here and try to overcome whatever obstacle is in your way. It has worked for me.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

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.

sober-living iconSober Living Homes

Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.

aftercare iconAftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Treatments

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
young-adult-program thumbnail image

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

EMDR is a therapeutic modality originally developed to help process trauma. In an EMDR session, a patient is prompted to undergo eye movements that mimic those of REM sleep. This is accomplished by watching a therapist's finger move back and forth across, or following a bar of light. The goal is repetitive sets of eye movements that help the brain reprocess memory, which can significantly reduce the intensity of remembered traumatic incidents. Associated memories can heal simultaneously, leaving patients significantly calmer, more stable, and more emotionally relaxed.

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.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

There are three things when considering treatment. The first is realizing that a problem exists. This is one of the most difficult. For me, this was one of those things that I was fighting tooth and nail. I realize that this seems like an easy task and I considered that as well. After a few days of being stuck I took my opportunity and ran. Literally ran away from the facility alone into the streets of Austin. Saying I was alone I mean it. I tried taking off on foot with no phone, wallet, or knowledge of the Austin area. After this event, I made an attempt to leave the program fully through paperwork. The staff here helped talk me out of the mindset that I have been in for most of my adult life. As soon as things get hard or scary, the only option is to run, get to a drink and end it all. However, I allowed the genuine concern and want of well being from all the people here to sway my decision. This is where step two comes into play. Accepting the help that you are due. I myself have struggled with mental health problems and after many visits to hospitals. I accepted that getting regular on meds and going back to the world was not the answer. I needed something more from these experiences, something that they could not provide. I had to accept that maybe Omega was or was not the right place for me. Either way I had to find a different answer to the dread that I have been fighting with. Omega in all that it’s short comings (not to say there’s a lot) did the job. From the program to the staff to the people that surround you in the program. There is always someone willing to help guide you into the next step for the day. Moving onto step three, taking the lesson home with you. There will come a day where you will have to walk out of the door with a want and a willing to get better. I hope that each of you that read this, find that moment. Omega as a whole may not be able to do it for you. They may be able to give you a standing start to reach that day. They did with me. I have the ability to walk out the doors and walk head first into the world with a confidence that tomorrow may suck but it will be a lot better than where I was six weeks prior. Good luck to all of y’all.

Hey, i'm Lee and this is what omega did for me. Six weeks ago i was in need of both mental and substance abuse help. Through doing a little research I came across the omega recovery. Initially i was quite hesitant because I had never done anything like this before, but I was willing to give it a shot. From the moment I arrived I felt welcomed and a sense that I was right where I was supposed to be. After initial introductions I was brought into my first group. To say that I was afraid is an understatement. I was terrified. I was quickly put at ease by the group and the counselor. I was in the residential stay program so i got settled in and began to build relationships with others, and work towards the main goal. Recovery. over the weeks i attended daily groups and had individual sessions. My medications were adjusted to better suit me and I continued to build bridges of connections and better understanding. Fast forward to now, the day before I graduate the program. I can honestly say this was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I grew, I made new friends, and most of all I reached my goal. Nothing in this life is easy, i think we all know this. The road wasn't always so smooth or so easy. I had my days of wanting to throw in the towel and leave, but i pushed through and I'm glad that I did. I learned so much over the weeks. The coping skills, dbt, cbt, relationship skills, substance treatments were on the daily. Helping me to build an inventory to look back at when I get back into the real world. Yes it was uncomfortable at the beginning but for what you gain its worth it. At the end of most of the meeting I went to after the serenity prayer this was said "keep coming back, it works if you work it, and you're worth it." Thats the key. YOU have to work it because YOU are worth it. The pain, the discomfort, it's all worth it. You gain a clarity that you probably didn't even know was possible. To know that it's not over and you're not alone, and there are people and places willing to help if you look for them and need it. if you need that helping hand, Omega Recovery has got you. The staff cared. the counselors cared, and the ones i met along the way cared. Tomorrow I will officially be a graduate, and I am damn proud. This program really does work if you work it, and always remember you sure are worth it.

They made big promises for my son, had an evaluation and then drop him in a couple of days into another hospital. Without even notifying us. Of course they were paid and there was no discussion about refunds or what happened.

I was lucky enough to find this place for my daughter who suffers from addiction. Spencer with admissions was very helpful from the beginning. My daughter said all of the staff were very helpful and knowledgeable, specifically Ian, Sarah, and Baylor. She was also set up with a great aftercare plan. Thank you for everything you do Omega!

I came to Omega more broken than I ever imagined was possible. After 6 years of trauma after trauma I was broken shell of myself. I lost 3 brothers to drug OD, one was on Christmas morning in my home. I was suffering from severe depression, anxiety, disassociation and alcoholism. I tried my best on my own for a year going to AA and intensive therapy but was not getting any better. After a year of trying on my own I found Omega. I started in the commuter program but was struggling. It was suggested that I move into the house. I was completely against the idea. I am a mom how could I leave my kids?? The staff took the time to talk with me about my fears. How could I not get the help I so desperately needed, I took leap of faith. I moved into the house 2 days before Christmas. This program saved my life. I was diagnosed with CPTSD. I had been on medications that were making everything worse. I’m so grateful to the staff for helping me get the correct diagnosis and on the right medication’s. It wasn’t easy. I was tested in many different ways. The program mimics challenges you will face in everyday life. This program will teach you how to face challenges in healthy ways. Most importantly you will learn about yourself, and why you behave certain ways. If you embrace the hard moments and search yourself you WILL learn a better way. At omega and with any program your attitude and what you put into it is what you will get out of it. They provide you with all of tools it’s up to you to use them. Embrace the hard. Get uncomfortable. The day I was deciding to come into the house one of the techs Jackson told me that the hard and the uncomfortable is how you grow. It’s what pushes you to the next level. In 6 short weeks I have grown more than I ever imagined possible. Omega is unlike any other program in Austin. I highly recommend it for mental health or addiction issues of any kind. You are worth it. Take a leap of faith. Embrace the hard. Embrace the uncomfortable.

So I thought I would actually finally take the step in see about treatment in the first place that I called which is this place the lady really didn’t help me at all and she told me that I wasn’t a fit and that she was sorry so I would say that I really don’t care about your recovery or people trying to reach out for help

Response from the owner
We sincerely apologize for the experience you had, Ashlee. It's concerning to hear that our team did not provide you with the support you were looking for. Your feedback is valuable, and we will address this matter to improve our services. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Being at Omega Recovery was a roller coaster of emotions as it’s supposed to be. It focuses on all addictions and mental health issues. Being at the residential house was a mind opening experience. No phone, no tv, no communication with the outside world really allows your mind recover to its fullest. It doesn’t sound like a pleasant experience in this day and age but I believe it is something everyone should do. Shout out Jessica for being such a good friend to me and a reliable tech.

Response from the owner
Thank you for your insightful review, Trippy-Iced-Out! We're glad to hear that your experience at Omega Recovery was beneficial for your journey. It’s great to know that the environment contributed to your recovery, and we appreciate your recognition of Jessica's support. Your feedback inspires us to continue providing a meaningful experience for all our clients.

Omega recovery has been a blessing for me and my recovery. From the staff to the techs everyone played a pivotal part in making my stay here accommodating and welcoming. Karen the housing director is amazing and really cares about everyone’s well being. I been to two other treatment center and I don’t think there’s another place that cares as much as the staff does here at omega. I would definitely recommend omega to anyone looking to treat their addictions whether it be tech addiction or drug addiction. Omega rocks!

Response from the owner
Thank you for your heartfelt review, Kasie! We're thrilled to hear that Omega Recovery has made such a positive impact on your journey. Our team's commitment to your well-being is our top priority, and we truly appreciate your recommendation. Your kind words motivate us to continue doing our best.
