About Prevention and Recovery Center (PaRC): Houston Drug and Alcohol Rehab

Traditionally seen as a bridge between inpatient or residential treatment and day programs, clients may enter the IOP directly if their symptoms aren’t severe enough to require a higher level of care. The IOP consists of morning sessions. Customized treatment plans include individual counseling, group counseling, family support, 12 Step programs, addiction education, relapse prevention, discharge planning, and community resource education.

Aftercare services are provided to help clients maintain their sobriety following treatment. Typical aftercare planning includes referrals to other programs, continued contact and support from the facility, and connecting with community support resources.

PaRC accepts major private insurance plans, including Aetna, Cigna, ComPsych, Magellan, and Value Options. Clients are encouraged to confirm their coverage before they enroll in a program, as out of network benefits may vary.

If I could give a 1 star I would. The communication is awful between them. There were major concerns, things happening (threats, Harassment) and refused to address the concerns. The therapist called and stated that she could not do anything since she was put in the middle between client and supervisor conflict. Once the Therapist requested a meeting, The supervisor at the Adolescent Unit decided to do a discharge. The supervisor Traci, Targets them when they start to express high concerns about treatment. For instance when a female patient makes inappropriate/ advancements and comments to male individuals. At discharge, they did not request ID to identify and released the minor. They lost belongings. They prescribed medication and changed medication and dosages within days, not allowing the individual's body to adapt to new medication. Spoke to the head CEO and even though there were alarming concerns it was best advised to do a release. Terrible experience for a new individual seeking treatment for the 1st time.

My son was a patient there for alcoholism. When I came to visit, he told me he felt like his counselor could care less if he got better or not I called the counselor and asked the counselor if he could just make him feel like he mattered. I didn’t ask them to coddle him or let him get away from accountability for his problem. Did not ask him to change his course of treatment or his way of treatment just to make my son feel like he mattered and wasn’t just money in their pocket. His words were,, we don’t do things like that here. So in other words, he was just money in their pocket. He committed suicide soon after. I know it was his choice but thanks for nothing. You could’ve made him feel like he mattered..

Accepted Insurance

Prevention and Recovery Center (PaRC): Houston Drug and Alcohol Rehab works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

After completing some form of inpatient care, many clients transition or step down to an outpatient rehab, while some choose to transition from detox directly into outpatient care. High-intensity outpatient programming, including partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) is widely available for clients in early recovery, those leaving detox, and those at an elevated relapse risk. Clients in outpatient care generally engage in robust addiction counseling and recovery education, and some also receive medication assisted treatment (MAT).

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.

aftercare iconAftercare Support

Rehab aftercare programs are based on a model of continuing care and the premise that recovery is a life-long process requiring ongoing client support. Many rehab aftercare services include outpatient care, but clients often continue to receive support after being discharged from formal treatment. Case managers and care teams typically collaborate with clients to design their long-term care plan, which may include peer coaching, career counseling, and 12 step program induction, among other services.

12-step icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

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.

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

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

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.

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.

The right life skills training will help you build the skills you need for recovery. You'll learn how to solve problems, improve your social life, enhance your mental health, and make good decisions. This is a key component of drug rehab programs in Texas.

What you eat has a significant effect on your mental and physical health. That's why many addiction recovery programs in Texas incorporate nutrition therapy in their treatment. This therapy teaches you how addiction affects nutrition, what foods are best to eat during recovery, and how to shop for and prepare healthy meals.

This place have gave me so much to hope for due to the staff Ms.jasmine, Mr>derrick, Ms.talisha, my counclor Ms.rachel and many more of the staff. The love each of these people have for the patients and care its unexplainable. coming from using hard drugs and not having a sense of care for myself and to walk thru these doors and the arms are open to love you till you can love yourself is amazing, me going back out and relapsing and scared to come back but when I thought about the staff and how much love the gave me I was ready to walk back in the doors and now I feel so much stronger because how much they have put so much love in me again. I'm forever grateful for this place and I always tell others who suffer from addiction that this is where I found myself again, and many found the same from their experience also. LOVE YALL SO MUCH!!!!!!!!

this place was honestly a joke. got sent here for extreme heavy use of marijuana, came back addicted to meth, adderal, mdma, and amps. i was 15. im still not completely sober though ive been getting better. (for reference this was a little over a year ago) i was relentlessly bullied and faced threats of violence (to me and my family) by another patient that i had never met before— to which nothing was done by the staff except giving her “warnings”. her threats were dismissed by the staff with saying such as “she doesn’t have access to a car, she can’t do that to you” and “she doesn’t know where you live, even if she does have a ”. i even talked to the girls counselor about it to which nothing was done and i was told to ignore her. the adolescent unit supervisor than told me on the day i was discharged “you could’ve told me, why didn’t you, i wouldn’t have tolerated that”. the issue is, her office was outside of the unit, i barely saw her, and i talked to BOTH counselors to which nothing was done. alerting one staff member should have been enough but apparently not. the situation was basically blamed on me for not telling the right person which was completely inappropriate. i was even able to get out a few days shy of my 30 day treatment by acting like the program was working. the staff were nice but not all of them seemed to have experience dealing with addiction/patients with addiction. they honestly seemed more focused on having fun than giving treatment. one of the night staff was even recording on instagram live during her shift! i received literally no treatment for my diagnoses other than the addiction, which even than the treatment seemed minimal. would not recommend this place, i have serious trauma from the way i was treated by other girls and ignored by staff.

Similar to another review I saw on here, I was able to get sober thanks to the help provided by another treatment facility. At the end of the day, sobriety is up to you if you truly want it. However, what’s really crucial are those first 30 days and getting the right tools and guidance. This place offers no tools and overlooks AA. It’s basically a 30-day vacation where the staff is only there for the paycheck. Thanks to a rehab in Austin, I was able to learn crucial tools, get involved in AA, and now my life is on a much better path. I wish I had gone there sooner instead of coming here. Also, beware of some of the staff members—especially a gentleman named Anthony—who is a creep and will flirt with the young clients. Just keep your head on a swivel at this place and make sure to stay away from Anthony.

Adolescents: Day shift staff is amazing, and they respect you as much as you respect them. They really go into detail for the groups. They make you give a bunch of feedback that may or may not be helpful to whoever is saying how they feel. PaRc has been so helpful for me and my family
