Counseling and Recovery Services (CARS)

CARS operates a comprehensive outpatient program specifically designed for individuals with opioid use disorder. The recovery center provides methadone maintenance therapy as the cornerstone of treatment, combined with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address the psychological components of addiction. This dual approach supports clients in maintaining recovery while continuing their daily responsibilities in the community.

The facility's Opioid Treatment Program certification ensures adherence to federal standards for medication-assisted treatment. CARS requires program participants to abstain from alcohol and other substances, creating a focused recovery environment. The integration of CBT with methadone maintenance helps clients develop coping strategies and behavioral changes essential for long-term sobriety and successful reintegration into their recovery community.

CARS specifically serves pregnant women struggling with opioid use disorder, providing specialized addiction treatment during this critical period. The recovery center understands the unique medical and psychological needs of expectant mothers in recovery, offering professional support that prioritizes both maternal and fetal health throughout the treatment process.

This focused approach to serving pregnant women sets CARS apart within the regional recovery community. The facility's patient-centered environment acknowledges the complex challenges faced by pregnant women seeking substance abuse treatment, providing a supportive foundation for both immediate recovery needs and long-term family stability.

CARS demonstrates commitment to accessible recovery support through unique scheduling features including pre-dawn dosing hours beginning at 5:30 AM Monday through Friday. This early availability allows clients to receive treatment before work or other daily commitments, removing common barriers to consistent participation in outpatient treatment.

Saturday morning dosing from 6:30-8:30 AM further supports clients in maintaining their recovery routine without disrupting weekend responsibilities. These flexible hours reflect the recovery center's understanding that successful long-term treatment requires accommodation of clients' real-world schedules and obligations within their broader recovery journey.

The recovery center accepts comprehensive payment options including Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, TRICARE, self-pay, and financial assistance programs. This broad acceptance ensures that opioid addiction treatment remains accessible to diverse populations throughout Harris County and the Northwest Houston Metro area.

CARS's location in Tomball provides convenient access for individuals seeking outpatient addiction treatment while remaining connected to their home communities. The facility's commitment to financial accessibility, combined with its specialized focus on opioid treatment, positions it as an important resource within the regional network of recovery services and aftercare support systems.
