About East Texas Medical Center Behavioral Health Center
East Texas Medical Center Behavioral Health Center provides behavioral health and addiction recovery services for adults in Tyler, Texas. Their programs include medical detox, crisis stabilization, inpatient treatment, an intensive outpatient program (IOP), general outpatient programs and aftercare support. Specialized services are available for seniors and clients with co-occurring conditions.
The center provides standard and ambulatory medical detox services to help clients safely withdraw from opioids, alcohol and other substances while under supervision. A team of multi-disciplinary providers performs psychiatric evaluations upon admission to understand client symptoms and develop individualized treatment plans.
If clients require medication-assisted treatment to manage the physical pain of withdrawal, providers can administer FDA-approved addiction medications, including buprenorphine and naltrexone (Vivitrol) as necessary. These medications also help reduce drug cravings and minimize relapse risk.
Staff provide age-specific services to support clients at every stage of recovery. This includes designated inpatient units, where clients can receive short-term crisis intervention care, medication management, psychiatric support and therapeutic counseling. As clients transition into outpatient treatment, they can participate in individual, family and group therapy; neuropsychological evaluations; life-skills training; and similar programs.
Staff provide a complete continuum of post-recovery care with services that include referrals to other healthcare providers, transportation assistance, medication assistance and peer support groups.
East Texas Medical Center Behavioral Health Center accepts most commercial insurance plans including Aetna, BlueCross/BlueShield, Cigna, First Health, HealthFirst, HealthSmart and others. Check with your local provider to verify your coverage as out of network benefits may vary.
