Cenikor Stephenville

"I can truly say that Cenikor Austin saved my life. I am currently 9 months sober, and I owe so much of that success to the tools and support I received here. The staff truly cares, and the environment gave me the foundation I needed to rebuild my future. If you are struggling and feel like there’s no way out, please give this place a chance. It was the best decision I ever made."

My recent experience with Cenikor-Austin as a medical detox and residential rehabilitation facility was in fact only a begining, but in the best possible sense. Go here if you are in need of help, empathy, compassion, and care. My experience left me feeling whole and human. Real people who understand real problems and have a real solution. To be completely honest it was my very first stop in my journey to becoming a whole person. I had no previously experience, didn't know what to expect, and was afraid. The staff and medical team never sugar coated things for me;these people have literally been in your shoes. I was treated with dignity and respect but they do have rules, set boundaries, teach you skills to cope with your vices and sometimes call you out when you can't be honest with yourself. When you want help, look no further. They do respect your spiritual beliefs and accept you regardless of what those are. They train you on the 12-step principles of our disease called addiction, but do not shove those ideas down your throat. Allowing me to heal, at my pace was the greatest gift anyone has given me in a very long time. If you are looking for a cure, good luck. If you are looking for re-entry into a life you once had or one that you thought you would never achieve, look no further. Welcome to your new family, My name is Ham and I am an addict.
P.S. Thanks for reading and please, never stop fighting for yourself. We are somebody and we are stronger than we ever give ourselves the credit for...YOU got this! Love, Ham

Great staff

I came in with an addiction problem and prison mind but with there groups they help me out change that thank you so much h cenikor and staff

They really helped my son get over his psychotic episode and he said that this was the most intense program that he was ever in.I am so proud of him for sticking it out and going to sober living house. And they were able to stabilize my Son on his Meds
. Because of that he is just like he was before a loving father and a concerned person who is ready for the responsibility of sober life.

First impressions: First thing I noticed was the positive energy emanating from various staff members. Everybody seemed HAPPY to be at work (about 4-5 staff members). That's always a good sign of a good work space. Second was a very low adult:teen ratio (many adults to few teens) which let me know there is very little chance for missteps with resident whereabouts; and as an added bonus, there were zero adults using cell phones! Third and most important was the professionalism and knowledge of the young and thorough intake officer D'Mani. She spoke with such mastery and courtesy and reassurance, that I could actually exhale at the notion of leaving my most precious part of me here-alone, that is, without a family member. At this initial visit I feel confident that my family member will leave this facility emotionally and psychologically better than when he arrived✝️.
