Programming Designed for Parenting and Expecting Mothers

This specialized track combines medical and therapeutic care with postpartum support and family sessions. Parenting classes, family education, and postpartum care help women strengthen their roles as caregivers while building sober, stable lives.

Daily Support for Children of Mothers in Treatment

Mothers can bring their children into care, and the on-site Child Development Center provides licensed childcare, speech and occupational therapy, and structured developmental support. After a full day of programming, children return to their mothers in the evenings, fostering mother-child connection during the healing process.

Evidence-Based and Holistic Therapies Support Moms Throughout the Full Continuum of Care

Evidence-based therapies are paired with medications for addiction treatment (MAT) and psychiatric care for co-occurring disorders. Holistic elements such as expressive arts activities, trauma-informed counseling, and outdoor spaces like the serenity garden further support emotional and physical well-being.

Engaging Alumni Community of Moms Supporting Moms

Alumni support is a central part of the experience, helping women sustain long-term sobriety through ongoing peer connection. Programs like the “Mom Squad” offer mothers opportunities to bond with their children and peers through outings to places like the Dallas Zoo and Arboretum, baby showers for expectant mothers, and community gatherings. Certified peer specialists provide mentorship and practical guidance on housing, employment, and everyday challenges.

How we research treatment facilities

Across the site, our team has conducted over 1,000 pre-admissions calls to better understand the patient experience, interviewed facility clinical leaders, performed facility background checks, and compared our information against trusted public data sources.

Our research process begins with data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), accrediting bodies including The Joint Commission and CARF, government licensing agencies, and other trusted sources. From there, our team conducts significant original research, including:

- Pre-admissions calls: We speak with admissions staff to get a candid picture of patient experience.

- Background checks: We review complaints from past clients, media reports, actions taken by accrediting bodies, and positive recognition from notable organizations.

- Clinical interviews: We have in-depth conversations with clinical leadership, often lasting up to one hour, that give us a better understanding of clinical care.

- Data partnerships: We ingest and analyze exclusive data that provides information about in-network insurance status, cost, and more.

Research varies by facility. Each facility profile shows which research steps we completed and when each step was last performed. Learn more about our research process and background checks.

How we evaluate treatment facilities

These data help us develop a Trust Score for each facility—a simple letter grade that helps you assess how much confidence to place in a facility based on the information available to us. Trust Score considers accreditation, operating history, notable recognition, and concerns identified during our background check. Our Trust Score is an objective rating that is never influenced by advertiser payment. Learn more about our Trust Score methodology.

Important disclaimer

We cannot guarantee the quality of treatment at any facility. We cannot independently confirm the accuracy of every data point, and some information may become outdated or change over time. A Trust Score is a starting point, not a guarantee of treatment quality or outcomes. Please contact us if you would like to update or correct facility information.
