They’re accredited by The Joint Commission, and they have treatment programs for dual diagnosis and substance use. They offer inpatient and outpatient treatment for men, women and children.

Many of their staff members are former military. They’ve been specially trained to help military members and their families. Active duty members do need a referral from a military provider, though their family members don’t. The program accepts TRICARE and VA health benefits. They also accept Medicaid, Medicare and most major private insurance.

In addition to treating military members, they also have inpatient behavioral health and substance use programs for children ages five to 17. They partner with the El Paso Independent School District so your child will get education services while attending an inpatient treatment program.

The inpatient program also offers specialty tracks for women and seniors. All of the tracks include 24/7 care. From acute stabilization and detoxification to medication management and recreational activities, you’ll have help and support for serious symptoms relating to substance use and co-occurring disorders.

There are special accommodations if you’re in the LGBTQ community. You’ll have an individual room without a roommate. The clinicians who work with LGBTQ patients have special training to recognize the unique challenges faced by their patients.

The main model of treatment throughout is the 12 Step program. You’ll focus on lifestyle changes that help you abstain from substances so you can maintain a sober lifestyle. You’ll participate in daily therapy as well as therapeutic activities. You’ll have medication management if appropriate and routine consultations with medical providers, therapists and psychiatrists.

Many co-occurring disorders such as anxiety, depression and bipolar disorder are the triggers that lead to substance use. Counseling helps you identify your triggers and teaches you how to get your mental health challenges under control. If your depression is severe and resistant to treatment and you’ve tried all other treatments, they offer electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). ECT has been known to help people with severe forms of depression and other mental health disorders.
