An Individualized Detox Process That is Tailored to Your Needs

When you arrive at Briarwood Detox Center in Austin on your first day you’ll be greeted by the friendly staff. They will take you on a tour of the facility before going over your onboarding documents with you and your family. This is also a good time to ask any questions you have about your detox treatment or your stay at Briarwood.

Within your first hour on-site, you’ll also meet with a nurse who will address your current health needs. Detox protocol will begin based on the findings of the nurse’s report.

The three stages of your detox at Briarwood will consist of the following:

1. Comprehensive assessment: This clinical assessment occurs with a detox counselor or licensed clinician and will take place during your first 24 hours at Briarwood. This need-finding assessment will assess your physical and psychological needs by providing the staff with more information about who you are, what your drug use history looks like, and how we can provide the best detox experience for your ongoing recovery.
2. Supervised detox: During your detox, the Briarwood clinical and medical staff will provide medical supervision 24/7 to make sure your medical, physical, and emotional needs are met.
3. Individual and Group Counseling: The primary objective of your counseling sessions is to address the here and now as you progress through detox. You’ll learn how to acknowledge your prior unhealthy ways of living as you learn to adopt healthier habits. These counseling sessions also provide a safe place for you to be honest about your feelings during detox and ask any questions you may have about withdrawal, detox, or the recovery process as a whole. H&I Presentations are also offered every day.

Throughout your detox program at Briarwood, your detox counselor will provide your family with daily updates over the phone. This ensures that your loved ones are informed about your progress each step of the way. Your counselor is also available to answer any questions they have during this time as well. After detox, our treatment professionals will provide referrals for ongoing care at an addiction center.
