La Hacienda

About this facility

La Hacienda is a residential rehabilitation facility located in Hunt Texas, that treats men and women who are struggling with alcohol and drug addictions and co-occurring mental health issues. Founded in 1972, La Hacienda blends clinical, spiritual, medical, and 12-Step facilitation. Their staff to client ratio is 2:1. Their medical team consists of 5 full time physicians, 4 internists, and 1 psychiatrist. The nursing staff provides 24 hour care 7 days a week. La Hacienda has medically assisted detoxification, a partial hospitalizations program (PHP), an intensive outpatient program (IOP), an inpatient program, and aftercare support. They use evidence-based therapies mixed with holistic ones. Some therapies include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), art therapy, experiential therapies, family therapy, group and individual therapy, life skills, motivational interviewing, nutrition therapy, rational behavior therapy (RBT), and recreational therapy. La Hacienda offers a 24/7 doctor-and nurse-supervised detox program in a separate building called the Special Care Unit. The length of detox varies on a case-by-case basis. A typical stay is between 28-60 days. Cell phones and computers are not allowed during treatment. Family programming includes a family week, a family recovery plan, education about addiction, boundaries and codependency, and discussions of client and family needs and information about the 12 steps. La Hacienda is accredited by the Joint Commission and accepts most major insurances. La Hacienda used to be a resort, so the layout of the bedrooms is hotel style and are shared accommodations. They encourage clients to explore the outdoors for reading, meditation, and outdoor meetings with therapies. The grounds are expertly designed to promote tranquility with beautiful gardens and lush flower beds. The campus has a pool table, ping pong table, board games, books, and movies for down time. There is an on-site, fully equipped gym, climbing wall, and outdoor pool. The dining room is large and resembles a restaurant, and meals are prepared by a culinary team that works closely with a nutritionist for balanced meals. Special diets are accommodated, and clients with eating disorders get additional supervision and aid. Vending machines with soda are available, too.
