In addition to these programs, patients can also be a part of specialty programs, such as the Christian addiction recovery program and the LGBTQ+ recovery program. Starlite accepts payment from most major private health insurance providers, including TRICARE.
What strikes me about this location is how many unique ways they seek to help individuals dealing with substance abuse. They understand that different groups of people may have different needs when it comes to how to treat their addiction. Starlite has a program specifically tailored to the military. They use trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help them heal from the emotional toll of military life that may have led them to use substances.
Likewise, in their first responders program, they have a team of former first responders who help first responders who have an addiction problem. These staff members are able to relate to their patient’s experiences and provide them with genuine empathy and support.
Starlite Recovery Center also stands out for providing assistance with a variety of different drug addictions. Clients can receive treatment tailored for addictions to stimulants, opioids, meth and many other substances. If patients are unable to receive treatment in person, they offer telehealth to allow clients to receive assessments and outpatient programming from the comfort of their homes.
Our Methodology
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.
Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.
Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

Medically Assisted Detox 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.
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.
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.
Opioid Addiction
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.
Treatment that takes a dialectical behavior therapy approach focuses on four strategies. Distress tolerance will help you accept and tolerate intense emotions. Emotional regulation will teach you to manage those emotions. Mindfulness will keep you in the present moment instead of regret or worry. Interpersonal effectiveness will teach you to manage your relationships.
Equine therapy, aka equine-assisted therapy (EAT), is a form of experiential therapy that involves interactions and activities with horses. It does not necessarily involve riding horses, but all activities related to horses, such as feeding, grooming, haltering and leading them. A mental health professional frequently oversees the activities (often in conjunction with a horse professional), and helps patients process their thoughts, feelings, and behavior patterns during and/or after the interaction.
All clients engage in a number of group sessions each week with their assigned process group. Group sessions are held for at least an hour and a half each day and focus on issues that have been identified by either the clients themselves or by their counselor. There are a number or 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.
All Starlite clients meet with their primary counselor at least once a week for individual counseling and personalized treatment planning. Individual sessions offer a number of benefits, including helping an individual better understand their addiction to alcohol.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

I was here during a time in which they had several student interns, one of whom I thought was a student but later found out was employed and was reprimanded by her on several occasions. She was incredibly rude, condescending, and disrespectful; then, when speaking with my th ...
This place has changed my life, when I got there I was frightening and unsure of myself. The staff in detox was wonderful and made me feel like I belonged there. The veterans side gave me back my life. Melissa and Teresa had a huge impact on me, I'm now 18 months clean and ...
The staff at the Liberty building are absolutely phenomenal. They provided me with exceptional service. Starlight is by far the best recovery center I've ever been in, and believe me, i have been in several. The encouragement and acceptance i received from the staff and cli ...
TERESA BRUNSVOLD -100% deserves the salary of 2x whatever she is currently paid. She puts in countless amounts of long hours and late nights; and often came in on her days off. My personal experience with her as a provider was nothing short of flawless. She swiftly identified my needs, enabled me to process, and showed mastery in all facets of the profession. This woman has so much dedication and care for her patients and their recovery. She is selfless, empathetic, educated, kind, caring, empowered, and so much more. Her actions and words alone portray the highest standards of care. Myself and other patients have already promoted Starlite's Military/First Responder programs to case managers and colleagues because of how positive our experiences were (both individually and as a group); which wouldn't have been possible without Teresa. She is an asset that this organization would be foolish to undervalue, that positively helps people change their lives for the better, and that personifies what it means to set the standard. Thank You So Much Teresa, you truly were the angel my life needed, and I know you'll continue to care for and guide others to their recovery goals in ways that only you can ! 5 Stars and more! A+++ Teresa is an absolute Godsend for the Active and Veteran communities of Military/First Responders that come through Starlite's gates as patients. When patients are in crisis, depressed, anxious, addicted, hurt, etc. Teresa rises to the occasion day in and day out giving her best and showing that she really cares; truly; and provides outstanding patient care to those who have served our nation and its communities in some fashion. If you are hesitating seeking help, don't! This is THE PROGRAM and more specifically Teresa is THE PROVIDER, you need!
I was involved with the liberty program for first responders a veterans as well as active duty military. The program is AMAZING! The counselors for our group are basically family members now. They made the 42 days I was there work for me and made sure I left with my tool belt full to deal in this crazy world and with my job as a fire fighter. The facilities were awesome, minus the food…lol. But I am a bit of a food snob. The property was very beautiful in the Texas hill country!
Truly turned my life around
This facility really needs to be revamp from the administration to the staff. There's alot of racism here and words that are express in groups or with "team president" are used for ammunition against you. When you let some staff know it's racial motivated they find a way for false accusation to put you out. It's very one- sided. Corporate should really look into this establishment. Please don't have other races come here if fairness isn't what they receive. Recovery is for anyone regardless of race,gender and creed not just for a specific race. Accountability is for everyone not just who is your same color. They encourage you to share your feelings but when you do its use against you. They also allow anonymous grievances be written against you but the investigation is already or decision has already been made once they come speak with you.
I loved my time at Starlite. I wished they had an emotional support animal for main, but overall the program and the people are just amazing
Two of my sisters just got accepted into this program and I just feel so overwhelmed with gratitude 🙏 thank you for what you do!
Family member went for a few weeks and it really helped. Just wish they had been closer but it was a great experience for them.
It’s a wonderful place good food, great staff, it’s a beautiful learning experience and I thank everyone there. It was such an inspiring time that I spent there and getting the care and knowledge I have now to stay sober. Thank you so so much Starlite! ❤️❤️❤️
Kicked my family member out without explanation. We’ve been trying to get a hold of them for an explanation but no one will call me back. I’ve left my number numerous times and cannot get a hold of anyone. Don’t go here unless you want the possibility of being kicked out of the program randomly with zero explanation.
Don't go if your a veteran using the VA. They are still coming after me for bills even after the VA paid them. This is a business trying to capitalize on people in need. BEWARE!!!
