Substance Abuse in Dallas, Texas (TX)

Substance Abuse in Dallas, Texas (TX)We offer both Court-Ordered and Voluntary Substance Abuse (Drug and Alcohol) Evaluations. Our therapists use assessment tools and conduct an in-depth interview to determine if the client is using, abusing, or is addicted to drugs or alcohol. Many people can control their substance use; others cannot. If you suspect or know you have a problem, contact us today and schedule an initial consultation. If it is determined that you do need help, our compassionate, non-judgmental therapists will develop an action plan that suits your situation and start you on the road to recovery.

 
 
  Outpatient Alcohol and Drug Counseling in Dallas, Texas (TX)

Our substance abuse specialists offer individual and group counseling for people with addictions or abuse as well as their family members. Even if the substance abuser is not in treatment, family members may be helped through therapy. The focus of therapy is not only on relapse prevention (staying clean and sober), but also on addressing the underlying emotional issues that the client is attempting to avoid by self-medicating through substance abuse or compulsive behaviors such as watching porn, gambling, shopping, and overeating.
