STAR Council Addiction Treatment Programs
The journey toward lasting recovery from substance use disorder requires dedication, personalized support, and professional guidance. Located in Decatur, Texas, the STAR Council offers comprehensive and compassionate addiction treatment services designed to help individuals and families reclaim their lives from the grip of addiction. Our programs are founded on evidence-based practices and a holistic approach, recognizing that successful recovery addresses not just the physical dependence, but also the underlying mental, emotional, and social factors contributing to substance misuse.
Personalized and Comprehensive Care
At STAR Council, we understand that no two paths to addiction are identical, which means no two paths to recovery should be either. Intake begins with a thorough assessment conducted by licensed professionals to determine the appropriate level of care. This ensures that each client receives a tailored treatment plan that meets their unique needs and challenges. Our continuum of care is designed to support individuals at various stages of their recovery journey.
Services Offered
- Outpatient Treatment: Ideal for individuals who require structured therapy and support while maintaining their daily responsibilities, such as work or school. Sessions are scheduled flexibly.
- Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): A higher level of care than standard outpatient, IOP includes several hours of clinical programming per week, offering comprehensive therapeutic interventions without requiring a residential stay.
- Counseling and Therapy: We provide individual, group, and family counseling sessions. Modalities include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed approaches.
- Relapse Prevention Planning: Essential for long-term sobriety, this service focuses on identifying triggers, developing coping strategies, and establishing a robust support network.
Focus on Long-Term Wellness
We emphasize developing the necessary life skills and emotional resilience required to navigate life sober. Our treatment philosophy extends beyond immediate sobriety, focusing on empowering clients to build a sustainable, healthy lifestyle. This includes addressing co-occurring mental health disorders, which often complicate recovery, through integrated dual-diagnosis treatment. Our dedication to the community means we also provide educational resources and prevention programs aimed at reducing substance abuse throughout the region.
