Mark Houston Recovery for Women

A Different Kind of Drug and Alcohol Recovery Center for Women

A certain percentage of women who receive treatment for drug or alcohol addiction at a residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program will relapse only to feel an even more debilitating sense of failure regarding their alcoholism and/or drug addiction. It is at this point that these women and their families ask themselves: "What can I do to truly recover from my alcoholism and/or drug addiction? What relapse prevention tools are available to me following a relapse after already completing treatment for drugs and alcohol?" How can I re-claim my life? What’s wrong with me?

At The Mark Houston Recovery Center for Women, we believe that female alcoholics and drug addicts can have an experience and be shown how to live a sober, responsible life that is characterized by permanent sobriety, self respect, and hope for the future. While The Mark Houston Recovery Center for Women is NOT a drug and alcohol treatment facility, families and residents alike will find that we are the next logical step for those who continue to struggle with active drug and alcohol addiction.

What we do works where others have failed (see our 12 Month Guarantee). Our staff members are highly skilled, competent women who have first-hand experience dealing with drug and alcohol addiction and recovery, and have the capacity to transmit that experience.

Why Gender-Specific Drug & Alcohol Rehab is Better

Over the years, most research has shown that gender plays a major role when considering what type of drug and alcohol rehabilitation is necessary to help an individual successfully recover from a drug or alcohol addiction. Additionally, women who have a substance abuse history are often more vulnerable than their male counterparts as it pertains to some of the physiological effects of prolonged substance abuse.

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), often times, substance abuse in women is more deeply rooted in psychosocial problems as well as traumatic life events. These important gender differences, alone, suggest the increased need for specialized drug and alcohol recovery programs for women. [source] Family members need to consider a Gender Specific Female-Only Facility when making this critical and life changing decision for their loved one.

Nestled in a quiet expanse of several acres of rolling hills in the Texas countryside, recovering female alcoholics and addicts will be able to focus on their journey towards a life of permanent sobriety.
