Testimonials

I have truly enjoyed my experience at Virtue Recovery Houston, TX. This is my first time ever in a treatment center. The clinicians, counselors, and the rest of the staff are amazing. The leaders of our daily sessions do a great job and cover a wide variety of topics to assist individuals who have been through a variety of addictions. They give everyone/clients the time and space to talk and share experiences and feelings, have great energy, they even share their own personal experiences/stories that a lot of us can relate to and have encouraged and inspired myself and others. I truly appreciate the care, support, and conversations I had with everyone who works at Virtue Recovery Houston, TX. It has tremendously helped me out so far and I am feeling and doing great, getting back to my old self which made my time and experience here well worth. They do a great job in setting you up with...

The counselors were awful. The food was absolutely awful. This place is a nightmare if you’re reading this and you’re looking for a place to go go somewhere else there’s so many places out there that let you use your phone. I had a clinical director is manipulative and it’s bizarre because I just went there And almost died on the floor went to the hospital called to see if I could come back and they told me no I was no longer welcome there that just goes to show how important my life was them. If you’re looking for a place, just a lounge around and learn nothing. This is the place you wanna be at and if you’re looking for a place for a free cigarettes and nasty You would go. This facility used to be good until it turned into like a homeless shelter, but just way worse I Broken up food poisoning, etc. don’t believe anything they say this place is terrible Find another place...

Virtue recovery was the first rehabilitation facility I've attended and it's likely to be my last. Their evidence-based care and knowledge about the disease of addiction, coupled with cognitive behavioral therapy, was by far the most effective means for me to understand what I was going through and why to never go back to a life of drug addiction. Much love for the entire staff. They have snacks all day long and amenities that make this residential program more like a comfortable time at a home amongst family than a prison punishment. Though don't be surprised to be expected to attend ALL group meetings which start at 8am and end at 6pm. So if you think you get to sleep all day this isnt the place for you. You have to put in the work and I feel I've been successfully educated here and given a fresh start to live my life healthy and happy. Much love to everyone who...

Food was awful. Group room had awful echo making it impossible to hear. No support for hearing impaired. The awful buracracy was too distracting for maintaining a sense of calm by profiting off the suffering of alcoholics a addicts . Management was to difficult to work with. Towels were torn, almost everyone smoked near entrance so you could smell smoke. There was no control as far as other "clients" not patients screaming in your ears. The best parts were the friends who took upon taking care of each other. Not to mention the staff who were very friendly and caring. Especially, Mark, Karen, Ty, Debra and Nick. Please forgive me if I forgot anyone. Really though find somewhere else. You deserve better. They don't accept Medicare so unless you have good medical or they will charge you $1000.00 per day. No discounts for veterans with PTSD . I did however make the best of...
