About The Texas House

The Texas House is an adult men’s residential rehab center in Houston, Texas. The nonprofit was founded in 1965 and runs a one year program for alcohol and drug treatment.

Some clients in treatment have been referred to Texas House by a court or a probation officer for the year. Medical detox is not offered so the clients who need this service will need to complete a detox program before treatment at the center.

Therapeutic Community in Houston

The house runs the year in a therapeutic community which is a peer driven model where men live together, share the household work and are accountable to one another.

The reason a therapeutic community is organized this way is that a method of their treatment is to live and work with peers. Peer encounter groups are part of the model at the house.

Alcoholics Anonymous meets there every day and a man needs a 12 step sponsor as well as regular attendance in a 12 step group. In the first 72 hours each man is medically screened and assigned a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor.

The house holds a license from the Texas Department of State Health Services. Clients are not charged out of pocket for this care. The campus is in Northwest Harris County within Houston.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

This inpatient rehab stay is a T.C., a highly structured residential program for criminal and antisocial behavior occurring within substance abuse or dependence.

After the residential program, optional aftercare runs two years for clients who finished that stay. It is not required to continue.

Alcoholics Anonymous meetings happen daily on site, and clients are introduced to them as part of the stay. The meetings are the 12-step piece.

A drug intervention in Texas may be necessary if your loved one is in denial about a substance use disorder. You can partner with intervention services to plan and execute an effective intervention that educates your loved one about addiction and encourages them to get the treatment they need. Many rehab centers offer intervention specialists who can facilitate the intervention and help with a seamless transition to inpatient rehab for treatment.

Treatments

The Texas House was founded in 1965 to help men with alcohol and drug problems, and daily Alcoholics Anonymous meetings are held at the facility. See alcohol addiction treatment.

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 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.

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.

Programs

Adult men enter a one year residential substance abuse program here, and the setup is a peer driven therapeutic community.

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.

Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.

Clinical Services

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

It's a psychological manipulation camp. There is no focus on what works best for any individual. It's all about telling on eachother and brainwashing you to follow the program. Coming back from work with all you belongings tossed about the room trying to find something to get you in trouble. They have no problem getting rid of someone for what they feel is better for the community not for you. If you want actual treatment then avoid this place at all costs. Exum was a nice person I feel. But still a part of the work to support this place program. I actually got worse after leaving there. And they will say it's because I didn't work the program. Total bs. Ive been sober for 15 years now. Could have been a lot earlier than that.
