Options After A Drug Rehab Facility

Continuing recovery after the rehab center

Frequently men who have already completed a 30-day program at a clinical rehab center are searching for a longer-term recovery commitment in a supervised atmosphere. And, too, they may find themselves relapsing at some point after leaving the rehab facility, an occurrence which also triggers their search. Often they are looking for a structured recovery program with extensive personal attention and hoping to find a practical program that will teach them the recovery skills they so earnestly desire.

Mark Houston views the drug rehab continuum

Recognizing this need for innovative long-term recovery centers in Texas, Mark D. Houston applied his personal experience and vision to create a 90-day residency program that is both traditional, with a 12 Step program at its core, and outside the box, with its introduction of universal spiritual laws. For example, one of the spiritual laws covered is the Law of Caring, which states: If you don't care about yourself through your actions, the world cannot and will not care about you. Merging these insightful laws with the teaching of everyday life skills begins to build the new life residents come there to generate.

Mark Houston Recovery welcomes adult men who have experienced treatment at alcohol and drug rehab centers, and those who have experienced relapse after completing alcohol/drug rehab facility programs. Founder Mark Houston brings his life and career experience with drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers to the daily operation of this news-making recovery center tucked in the hills near Austin, Texas with lots of peaceful corners where personal restoration can emerge. A well-trained staff, most of whom are themselves in recovery, provide all residents with encouraging support. Classes are conducted in an enjoyable manner without boring lectures, and fun is definitely part of the agenda, including field trips to sports, cultural and nature-oriented events. Throughout the three-month residential stay, Mark and staff are closely connected with the residents, serving as models of the successful recovery behaviors being taught.
