Change Your Life Today With Safe Detox from Certified Doctors, Nurses, and Psychiatrists

Briarwood Detox Center in Austin offers a certain quality of care you won’t find at other detox facilities. We know it’s been a long time since you’ve been treated as a person rather than an addict, but that ends here. You’ll be respected and cared for by our staff for the minute you walk in, with access to the highest quality medical and clinical care available and all the comforts of home.

Completing a drug or alcohol detox program at our Austin detox center is just the start of regaining your life back and overcoming your alcohol or drug addiction. Our individually-tailored programs are private, safe, and they greatly reduce your risk of relapse by providing a solid foundation for sobriety. Although physical abstinence from drugs and alcohol is an essential part of recovery, the process is very much emotional and spiritual as well. At Briarwood, you’ll receive multi-disciplinary treatment to address the physical and psychological aspects of detox, for a whole-person approach to lasting sobriety. This includes 24/7 medical supervision for safety, pain management and on-site medical care .

Our commitment to quality care is reflected in the beautiful facility that we offer our clients. Briarwood’s tranquil location is designed to provide the utmost comfort in a welcoming environment that is conducive to the healing of the mind, body, and spirit. Simply put, our mission is to provide the highest quality care possible to support you as you make the life-altering decision to get sober.

Home-Like Accommodations for a Restful Stay

Attainable High-Quality Detox Treatment

We understand that it’s not always easy to drop everything and go to detox in Austin. We are here to support and help you through the transition into sobriety by breaking down as many treatment barriers as possible.

Our goal is to make drug and alcohol detox care available for those who need it most, by providing immediate openings, offering transportation to and from our detox center, and working with most health insurance companies to reduce your out-of-pocket expenses.

Our experienced team of admissions professionals is also available to explore alternative options with you such as Employee Assistance Programs. We will work directly with you and EAP representatives to create an appropriate treatment plan that addresses your needs and fulfills all EAP and employment requirements.

How long does it take for your body to detox?

Most of our clients spend 5-7 days detoxing at Briarwood. However, several factors affect the duration of withdrawal. If you want to know how long drug detox will take for you, we can provide you with a better estimate once we complete an assessment to gather more information.

What happens during detox?

First, we will complete an assessment to determine your treatment needs and the severity of your addiction. Then, we will use that information to design a personalized detox program for you. Once detox begins, we will safely manage and treat your withdrawal symptoms in a comfortable and private setting. Meanwhile, you will receive 24/7 medical care and clinical therapy to help you work through the psychological side effects of withdrawal and any mental health issues. In addition, you may also attend group therapy sessions, H&I meetings, and participate in music and art activities if you are physically able.

What’s the quickest way to detox?

Self-detox regimens and detox kits sold online may claim to help you detox faster. However, detoxing from alcohol and drugs on your own at home is dangerous. Most importantly, not receiving prompt professional medical detox treatment can make withdrawal symptoms more severe and longer lasting. Consequently, the most effective and safest way to detox from drugs or alcohol is with a medical detox program.

Of course detox is a Difficult experience but my needs were met and I always felt safe. The staff was incredible and helped me choose the right path. Forever grateful to the folks at briarwood. Detox is scary but I was met with empathy and compassion from every direction my entire stay. It was clean and the medical care was great! I will never forget the place where my life-changing journey began and I am forever grateful 🙏

Mark Rector was the worst person you could ever deal with. Guy should have his head checked out. If you want yourself or a loved one to get better I suggest anywhere else. I was seeking help for a loved one and got nothing but lied to and yelled at by him. He doesn’t help people he belittles them

Briarwood was the first and only detox place I have currently been to. I spent 5 days there being pleasantly surprised about what the whole experience was like. Very attentive care from the friendly nursing staff, no pressure to attend their regular AA meetings and group sessions and better amenities and freedom than I was expecting. Every staff member was available to answer questions I had as a newcomer and assist me with whatever I needed. I don't have other detox facilities to compare it to but Briarwood exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend it to anyone struggling with addiction. Thanks to them I'm currently 41 days sober and getting my life back on track.
