Our residential drug rehab in Texas
The Right Step Texas addiction treatment centers provide a multidisciplinary, structured approach based on 12-step recovery principles, medical care, and evidence-based models. Our inpatient treatment integrates mental health support with addiction treatment so care addresses the whole person.
Comprehensive assessments
We make sure we are addressing all of the issues that are keeping you from living the life you want. Our addiction specialists will assess your situation to determine if you have underlying mental health disorders and need dual diagnosis treatment. Our assessments guide your treatment plan so you are getting treatment that is comprehensive and relevant. Screening includes substance use history, medical needs, mental health conditions, and social supports so your treatment team has a full picture.
Individual therapy
Meeting in an individual therapy program helps you address the emotional pain that contributes to substance abuse. You will explore difficulties from your past that are getting in the way of your present well-being. You will also identify triggers to substance use and learn healthier ways of coping with them. Individual counseling sessions are a safe space to talk about issues you are not ready to bring to the group yet. You can also use it to process something that came up in a group so you can give the topic more focus. Sessions draw on behavioral therapy techniques and other evidence-based therapies tailored to your goals.
Group counseling
You will also take part in several small group therapy sessions as part of our group therapy program every day. Many of our groups are gender separate, which can help you feel safer being open. You will gain new insight into yourself, your substance use, and your personal challenges through interactions with peers. A trained group leader will guide you through topics that are relevant to you and your peers in treatment. In group therapy, you will:
- Improve interpersonal skills
- Practice open, honest sharing
- Gain new solutions to problems
- Work on issues like shame and isolation
- Build relapse prevention skills and confidence
Family therapy and involvement
Loved ones are impacted by addiction as well. Therefore, we provide a family therapy program as appropriate. Some of our locations also offer family groups where loved ones can connect with others going through similar situations. The more family is involved in treatment, the better they are able to support you while you are in recovery. Family members can learn practical ways to communicate, set boundaries, and support without enabling.
Relapse prevention
It is important to have alternative ways to deal with triggers that lead to drug and alcohol use. In addition to helping you get sober, we teach you how to thrive in recovery. You will learn about healthy self-care and practices that will help you stay strong in sobriety in the face of stressors. We help you build a toolbox of relapse prevention skills you can draw upon for a lifetime, including coping strategies for cravings, mindfulness skills, and plans for high-risk situations.
Traditional and alternative therapies
At our inpatient drug rehab centers in TX, we offer traditional therapies like our cognitive behavioral therapy program and dialectical behavior therapy program as well as complementary approaches. In addition to individual and group counseling, you may take part in:
- Art and music activities
- Fitness
- Yoga and meditation
- Shame resilience groups
- Recreational activities including basketball, softball, and group outings
- Spirituality awareness
Therapies are based on clinical need and length of stay. Your treatment plan can evolve as your needs change during inpatient care.
Aftercare planning
Our connection with you does not end after you leave treatment. We help you plan for long term recovery with continuing care options that include:
- Two years of complimentary aftercare groups
- Alumni events and support groups
Our aftercare services reinforce skills learned in residential treatment and help you navigate work, school, and family commitments.
Who benefits from residential treatment
Residential care can be helpful if you need structure, 24-hour support, or a quiet space away from triggers while you stabilize. People with substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health issues, such as anxiety or depression, often benefit from the consistent schedule and therapeutic community. If you are searching for residential drug rehab in Texas, The Right Step offers an environment that promotes safety, accountability, and hope.
What to expect in inpatient care
Inpatient rehab typically begins with orientation and a review of safety, privacy, and program expectations. Early days may include medical monitoring for withdrawal symptoms, sleep, nutrition, and any acute mental health concerns. Throughout your stay, a multidisciplinary treatment team meets regularly to review progress and adjust your plan.
A typical weekday can include:
- Morning check-in and mindfulness practice
- Psychoeducation on substance use disorders and mental health
- Individual therapy
- Skills groups such as cognitive restructuring, emotion regulation, or communication practice
- Fitness, meditation, or recreational time
- Process group to reflect on the day and set goals for tomorrow
Weekends may include community activities or writing exercises reflecting on the week’s progress.
Integrated care for co-occurring conditions
Many people with substance use disorders experience co-occurring mental health conditions. Integrated residential treatment focuses on both, since untreated mental health concerns can fuel cravings and relapse. Your clinicians will screen for anxiety, mood symptoms, trauma related concerns, and other mental health issues, then coordinate counseling, skills training, and medication management when appropriate. This whole person approach supports stabilization and long term recovery.
Choosing inpatient treatment or outpatient services
Not sure if you need residential treatment programs or an intensive outpatient setting? In general, inpatient treatment is a better fit when home triggers are strong, mental health symptoms are destabilizing, or you need more structure. If you have a safe, stable home and strong daily accountability, you may be ready for a step down to outpatient services after stabilization. To explore options, review our complementary level of care in Outpatient Drug Rehab Centers.
The role of health care, insurance, and practical planning
Addiction intersects with physical health, behavioral health, work, school, and family. As part of your admissions process, our team can review practical concerns, discuss how health insurance benefits may apply, and coordinate documentation you may need for job or academic leave. If you do not use insurance, we can walk through payment options and community resources. Coverage and costs vary by plan, so we encourage you to contact us with questions.
Therapies and skills that support recovery
Our counseling approach emphasizes skill building for real life. You may practice cognitive behavioral strategies to challenge unhelpful thoughts, dialectical skills for emotion regulation, and communication techniques to manage conflict. Education on alcohol and drug effects, sleep, nutrition, and stress helps you understand how substance use interacts with physical and mental health. You will also create a practical relapse prevention plan that includes warning signs, coping skills, and people you can call for support.
Aftercare, alumni, and the recovery process
Sustained recovery grows with structure, community, and purpose. Before discharge, we map out next steps that may include step down care, continuing counseling, alumni events, and local support groups. Two years of complimentary aftercare groups and alumni programming make it easier to stay connected while you rebuild routines, relationships, and goals. Recovery is a process of change, and we will remain a resource as you navigate work, school, family, and health.
