<p><strong>ABOUT AWAKENINGS HILL COUNTRY</strong></p> <p>In the rolling green of Texas's Hill Country, less than 100 miles from both San Antonio and Austin, family-owned Awakenings Hill Country offers <strong>medical detox and residential treatment for women</strong> struggling with problematic substance use. The center can accommodate <a href="http://www.recovery.org/topics/dual-diagnosis-recovery/" target="_blank">co-occurring disorders</a> such as trauma and PTSD.</p> <p>Though religion is not the main feature of the facility, Awakenings Hill Country does note: "We believe your relationship with God is a critical tool in the recovery process."</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>The program at Awakenings is targeted to address the gender-specific problems that lead women into a life of addiction, and the gender-specific problems they can face in recovery. <strong>Residential treatment is offered in increments of 30, 60, and 90 days,</strong> which can begin with medical detox, when required.</p> <p>Programs are individualized, but all residents participate in both individual and group counseling. Additionally, residents' loved ones are invited to participate in a <strong>family program</strong> that includes education about addiction as well as treatment services. Residents are <strong>introduced to the 12-Steps,</strong> though it's unclear whether the 12-step program is the basis of the entire treatment philosophy at Awakenings. Holistic offerings include <strong>art therapy, equine therapy, yoga, and exercise programs.</strong></p> <p>Those residents who remain beyond the first 30 days spend their second month focusing on <strong>self-image, guilt, grief, and shame,</strong> as well as their relationships. Residents in this stage also complete plans for thorough life change and focus on relapse-prevention skills, and are invited to participate in a five-day program designed to help them understand the survival mechanisms that drove them to self-destructive behavior. In the third month of treatment, residents focus on <strong>relapse prevention and family relationships.</strong></p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>Staff includes a physician who's board certified in addiction medicine, a nurse, and licensed chemical dependency counselors.</p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>Awakenings operates from a <strong>large, country-style home,</strong> with plenty of green space featuring an outdoor pool, a pond, and covered patio areas. Residents sleep in shared rooms decorated in a pretty, traditional style with lots of florals, and the house offers comfortable communal areas.</p> <p><strong>REVIEWS</strong></p> <p>Rehabs.com has not yet received any reviews from this facility’s alumni, affiliated friends or family members, or staff, however, <strong>secondary sites yielded overwhelmingly positive feedback at the time of this writing:</strong> a 4.8-star average rating based on 19 reviews on Facebook (where the facility can manage its own page) and a 4.7-star average rating based on 23 reviews on Google.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a></small> In the single negative review with any accompanying commentary, C.M. complained on Facebook of being kicked out mid-detox because she didn't have insurance.</p> <p>However, the overwhelming majority of feedback was positive, with reviewers <strong>repeatedly praising the facility's staff and amenities</strong> and crediting the center with their successful sobriety. "This place saved my life... The councilors they have are phenomenal. They truly care about each woman there," S.E. wrote in one representative review on Google; "A Beautiful place in the Hill Country for women to find themselves. Staff was amazing, food was delicious and hospitality," M.D. added on Facebook.</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>Awakenings accepts insurance from most providers.</p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pg/awakeningshillcountry/reviews/?ref=page_internal" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/pg/awakeningshillcountry/reviews/?ref=page_internal</a></small><br /> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a> <a href="https://goo.gl/6Pxggg" target="_blank">https://goo.gl/6Pxggg</a></small></p>
