A Structured Path to Recovery
Heartwood Recovery offers a focused continuum of care designed specifically for men. The journey begins with a highly structured residential program to build a solid foundation, followed by a supportive step-down to PHP with housing that encourages accountability and real-world application of recovery skills.
Typical Length: 30 Days
The residential program is an immersive, 24/7 experience where clients live on-site in a supportive, structured environment. It combines intensive clinical therapy, 12-step meetings, and community activities to address the core issues of addiction.
Schedule: Monday-Friday, 8am-3pm
PHP serves as a vital step-down from residential care. Clients attend a full day of treatment on weekdays while living in program-provided housing. This model fosters greater independence and accountability while maintaining a strong connection to the recovery community.
Environment & Accommodations
Heartwood Recovery is situated on a spacious 2-acre campus in Austin, Texas. The environment is designed to feel like a community, not a hospital, with clients living in comfortable, home-like houses. With a maximum capacity of only 18 beds, the program ensures a tight-knit, focused, and supportive atmosphere exclusively for adult men. All rooms are shared, typically with 2-3 clients per room, which helps build camaraderie and peer accountability.
