The company runs substance-specific programs (alcohol, opioid, benzodiazepine, cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, prescription, and synthetic drug detox), paired with FDA-approved medication-assisted treatment (buprenorphine, naltrexone), evidence-based individual and group therapy, family support, intervention coordination, and holistic activities.

Product overview

Briarwood Detox operates a portfolio of medical detoxification facilities across Texas (Austin, San Antonio, Houston) and Colorado Springs, CO, offering substance-specific detox programs for alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, opiates/opioids, prescription drugs, and synthetic drugs. The core clinical offerings include inpatient detox (residential with 24/7 medical monitoring) and outpatient detox (flexible day programs), supplemented by Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) using FDA-approved medications. Adjacent therapeutic services include individual and group therapy, family support, intervention assistance, nutrition programs, music and art activities, and H&I meetings. A premium Executive Detox Program in Houston provides upscale accommodations with enhanced privacy for professionals. All services emphasize evidence-based treatment, HIPAA-compliant confidentiality, and transitions to ongoing rehabilitation and sober living.
