AMPT Up for Change LLC

AMPT Up for Change LLC provides Outpatient Program and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) services from its Houston, Texas location in Harris County. These non-residential levels of care are well-suited for individuals who are building or maintaining long-term recovery while continuing to meet work, family, and community obligations. The IOP track offers a more intensive weekly structure for those who need stronger support without a residential stay, while the standard outpatient level serves those in earlier recovery or transitioning from more intensive care.

The center also provides aftercare support as part of its recovery continuum, recognizing that the period after active treatment is often when lasting change is either secured or lost. By combining structured outpatient programming with aftercare, AMPT Up for Change functions as a longer-term recovery partner rather than a single-episode treatment stop.

Substance abuse rarely travels alone. AMPT Up for Change treats co-occurring disorders including trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, and anger management alongside primary substance abuse treatment — a dual diagnosis approach grounded in the reality of most people's recovery experience. Group counseling and individual counseling create space for both shared community and personal work, while Christian counseling and couples counseling extend that work into faith communities and family systems.

The facility's specific class offerings — including anger management classes, decision-making classes, and parenting classes — reflect a broader commitment to behavioral change that supports recovery across multiple life domains, not just the clinical hour.

This Houston recovery center is built to meet a wide cross-section of the community. Populations served include veterans, pregnant women, young adults ages 18 to 25, seniors, men, women, juveniles, and individuals who are court-ordered or otherwise justice-involved. HIV/AIDS awareness classes are also available, extending the center's reach to individuals managing complex health intersections alongside recovery.

As a State Approved Offenders Education Program, AMPT Up for Change holds a specific certification that allows it to serve court-ordered participants — a population that benefits from the same quality outpatient addiction treatment and substance abuse services as any other recovery community member, but with program formats recognized by the courts.

AMPT Up for Change accepts private insurance, self-pay and cash, credit card, and debit card for its outpatient and IOP services. This range of payment options helps ensure that financial barriers are not the deciding factor in whether someone accesses addiction treatment or substance abuse care in the Houston area.

The center operates Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM and Saturday from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, offering weekend availability that many outpatient programs do not. Prospective clients and family members can reach the center by phone at (281) 814-9895 or by email at [email protected].
