Drug & alcohol rehab centers in Lubbock, TX

Our Lubbock directory brings together licensed drug and alcohol treatment providers so you can compare them in one place. Listings are organized to surface the information that matters most when you are choosing care: the levels of care a facility offers, the payment types and insurance it accepts, its accreditations, and the specialty programs available for specific populations.

We prioritize providers that hold recognized accreditation or state licensure and that report clear, verifiable service and payment details. Where a facility has been reviewed by the Joint Commission, CARF, or listed with LegitScript or NAATP, we note it.

Listings are informational and are not paid placements or endorsements. Always confirm current services, availability, and cost directly with a provider before making a decision.

Known as the Hub City, Lubbock is the seat of Lubbock County and the medical and economic center of the South Plains region of West Texas, anchoring a metro area of roughly 367,000 people.

Its 23 rehab providers make it the primary point of access to addiction treatment options for people across a wide stretch of rural West Texas, many of whom travel to Lubbock for detox and residential care. You can also compare programs statewide through the Texas rehab directory.

Publicly funded care in the region runs largely through StarCare Specialty Health System, the state-designated Local Authority for substance use disorders across 41 West Texas counties and a Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic.

StarCare provides screening, outpatient treatment, medication for opioid use disorder, and drug risk education, and its published policy is that no one is turned away because of an inability to pay. Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center adds academic medical capacity to the area.

Substance use in Lubbock County tracks the wider West Texas pattern, with opioids and stimulants driving the most serious harm. The Lubbock Health Department, citing CDC data, reported 41 unintentional drug overdose deaths in the county between August 2023 and July 2024, and noted that all were opioid-related, though not all involved fentanyl.

Statewide, methamphetamine was involved in a growing share of overdose deaths. If prescription or illicit opioids are part of the picture, it helps to understand fentanyl overdose risk before choosing a program.

Lubbock is also a large college town: Texas Tech University and its health sciences center give the city an unusually young population, and about a quarter of residents are between 21 and 34. That shapes local demand for young adult and student-focused programs alongside services for the broader region.

The price of treatment in Lubbock depends far more on the level of care and length of stay than on the city itself. The figures below are Texas statewide averages for the full cost of treatment without insurance, which means most people pay considerably less once coverage,

Medicaid, or sliding-scale pricing is applied. Detox and residential programs sit at the high end because they include around-the-clock care and housing, while outpatient and medication-based treatment are the most affordable.

Because no verified city-specific pricing is available for Lubbock, treat these state averages as a general guide rather than a quote. Local out-of-pocket cost will vary by provider, program length, and how much of the bill your plan covers.

Across Lubbock's 23 providers, self-payment and private insurance are the most widely accepted options, and several facilities also work with public coverage and reduced-fee arrangements. The cards below show how many local providers report accepting each payment type.

Lubbock providers span the core levels of addiction care, with strong availability of detox, inpatient, and outpatient treatment. The counts below reflect how many local facilities offer each level.

Medical detox is the supervised first step for people with physical dependence, managing withdrawal safely before ongoing treatment begins. Fourteen Lubbock facilities offer supervised detox.

Inpatient and residential rehab provides 24-hour structured care and is often recommended for more severe substance use or unstable home environments. Seventeen local programs offer residential treatment.

Outpatient rehab lets people live at home and keep working or studying while attending scheduled treatment, and it is the most common level of care in Lubbock. Nineteen providers offer outpatient rehab.

Dual diagnosis care treats a substance use disorder alongside a mental health condition such as depression or anxiety at the same time. Nine Lubbock programs support people managing co-occurring depression and related conditions.

Sober living homes offer structured, substance-free housing that bridges the gap between treatment and independent life. Four are available locally, and they pair well with rehab aftercare. Ongoing counseling through behavioral therapy supports recovery at every level of care.

Many Lubbock providers tailor treatment to specific groups, which can make care feel more relevant and comfortable. The cards below show how many local facilities report each specialty focus.

With Texas Tech University in the city, young adult and student demand is high, and twelve local programs address young adult and college student substance use. Nineteen providers offer alcohol-focused care for people managing alcohol use disorder, and six run opioid-focused programs for opioid use disorder.

One Lubbock provider reports LGBTQ+ friendly services offering LGBTQ+ affirming addiction care, and one offers a program with rehab resources for veterans and military. Women's, men's, and older-adult tracks round out the local options.

If cost or insurance is a barrier, Lubbock and the South Plains have public and nonprofit resources that can connect you with help quickly. The organizations below offer crisis support, screening, treatment, and overdose prevention, many at low or no cost.

Overdose remains a serious public health concern in Lubbock County and across Texas. The Lubbock Health Department, citing CDC data, recorded 41 unintentional drug overdose deaths locally between August 2023 and July 2024, and reported that all were opioid-related. Statewide trends put that local figure in context, and you can compare it against national substance use statistics.
