The Arbor Behavioral Healthcare Georgetown

Located on a sprawling countryside campus in Georgetown, Texas, The Arbor Behavioral Healthcare provides a full continuum of luxury care to individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. They’re accredited by CARF and certified by LegitScript. Staff is available to help clients navigate benefit verification and financial planning.

Services for Adults and Families

Their holistic, evidence based treatment is designed for adults, with specialized family programming that includes education, counseling, and support. Residential care includes 24/7 supervision to tackle any underlying mental health disorders. Cell phones may be restricted, but clients are welcomed to bring books and personal journals and keepsakes.

I really like their equine therapy program. You’ll connect with horses and learn to care for them and socialize with others. Gaining empathy and building confidence are core goals that can accelerate your healing.

Holistic Treatment with a Strong Aftercare Program

With a focus on building life skills and facilitating community reintegration, they offer residential, outpatient, intensive outpatient, and partial hospitalization programs. Modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, and 12 Step groups are integrated with yoga and mindfulness to better treat the whole person.

I appreciate that there’s an emphasis on long term recovery, with their strong aftercare program including alumni groups and check ins for ongoing care.

Supportive and Nurturing Staff

I found positive reviews of the facility, with former clients praising the supportive and nurturing staff and clinicians. They cite transformative healing, effective treatment plans, and a strong sense of community. Many highlight the individualized care and emphasis on holistic recovery.

Outdoor Spaces of Georgetown

Georgetown is home to a variety of outdoor spaces that may compliment your recovery journey. Blue Hole Park is a picturesque lagoon just north of downtown, bordered by limestone bluffs on the banks of the San Gabriel River and perfect for a day of swimming. Lake Georgetown spans 1200 acres, offering opportunities for fishing, boating, camping as well as 26 miles of hiking trails through local wildlife and habitats.

The San Gabriel Trail has over six miles to explore, following the North and South San Gabriel Rivers and connecting several city parks. Berry Springs Park and Preserve features historic buildings, a nature trail, a pond, a boardwalk, and gardens, ideal for some time in nature away from city life.
