Understanding the Disease of Addiction
Addiction is a complex disease that doesn’t discriminate – it affects people from all walks of life in Houston, from energy sector executives to students at the University of Houston, and everyone in between.
Families should know the following about addiction:
- Addiction is a chronic disease, not a moral failing
- It often co-occurs with mental health issues
- Genetic, environmental, and personal factors all play a role
- Recovery is possible with the right support and treatment
Substance Use Trends in Houston, TX
Houston, the largest city in Texas, is known for its diverse population, thriving economy, and rich cultural heritage. But like many major metropolitan areas, it also grapples with significant substance abuse issues.
In Houston, we’ve seen a concerning trend in opioid abuse, particularly with the rise of fentanyl. Methamphetamine use has also been on the rise, impacting communities across the city. But regardless of the substance, the impact on families and individuals is profound.
“Our priority is to get people well by developing ethical treatments rooted in science.”
Eric Button
Executive Director
Dual Diagnosis and Mental Health Support
In Houston, as in many large cities, we often see addiction co-occurring with other mental health disorders. Our clinical team understands the complexity of dual diagnosis conditions and the importance of addressing both issues simultaneously.
Some of the most common questions we encounter are: Which came first, the mental health condition or the addiction? Which should be treated foremost?
In our experience, persons with a dual diagnosis respond better to treatment methods that address mental health in conjunction with substance use disorders. This form of treatment not only improves recovery outcomes, but also advances physical, emotional, and general functioning throughout the treatment episode and beyond.

Family Involvement in Addiction Recovery
Often, our families in Houston are so focused on getting help for their loved one that they begin to neglect their own needs. In most cases, families unknowingly begin to contribute to the problem through codependency and enabling, even though their intentions are born out of love and concern.
Addiction doesn’t just affect the individual; it impacts the entire family system. Our family program is designed to educate and support Houston families throughout the treatment process. We’ve found that recovery improves when all those affected by addiction accept help and take action to heal.
“Our goal at Burning Tree Lodge is to embrace the family system as quickly as possible, because we believe that early intervention for the family is critical to the recovery process.”
Doug Wade, LMFT
Family Program Director
Aftercare & Relapse Prevention: Transitioning Back to Houston
Recovery doesn’t end when treatment does. We put significant emphasis on aftercare planning for our Houston clients, helping them build a solid foundation for lasting recovery as they transition back to city life.
Aftercare planning may include several elements:
- Ongoing therapy sessions
- Alumni support services & weekly meetings
- Developing a relapse prevention plan
- Finding sober activities and communities in the Houston area
We also maintain an active alumni network, providing ongoing support and connection for our clients as they navigate their new sober lives in Houston.
Embracing a Life of Sobriety in Houston
One of the beautiful aspects of getting sober in Houston is the opportunity to rediscover the city through fresh eyes. Houston’s diverse culture and vibrant community can be powerful allies in recovery:
- Explore Houston’s world-class museums, like the Museum of Fine Arts or the Houston Museum of Natural Science
- Enjoy outdoor activities at Buffalo Bayou Park or Memorial Park
- Attend sober events and meetups in the city
- Discover Houston’s famous culinary scene
Recovery isn’t about giving up your life – it’s about reclaiming it. And Houston offers countless ways to do just that.
Take the First Step: Reach Out for Help
