Support That Lasts
The strongest outcomes come from sustained support, not a single episode of care. Therapy happens in scheduled hours; life happens in all the others. Recovery mentoring and companioning fill those hours with structure, accountability, and a steady human presence, coordinated directly with your clinical team and customized around your life.
Mentoring is delivered through Heights Mentoring, our sister practice: private, discreet, clinician-informed recovery support for adults, young adults, families, executives, and high-visibility clients, in person across Houston and The Heights, in-home, virtually, and by travel companioning nationwide. Mentors are not therapists; they are trained recovery professionals who work alongside your clinicians, never instead of them.
Inside our Individualized Intensive Program, mentoring is woven into every phase, growing as clinical intensity steps down so the handoff to everyday life is seamless. It can also be added to PHP, IOP, weekly therapy, or stand alone as concierge recovery support after treatment anywhere.
What It Includes
Day to Day
One-on-one accountability, structure, routine building, and real-world practice of the skills you learn in session.
Higher Presence
A trained recovery professional alongside you for travel, events, transitions, and high-risk windows, with full discretion.
The Bridge
Support through the highest-risk weeks: leaving residential care, stepping down levels, or returning to work and family life.
Skills for Living
Sleep, health, finances, work rhythms, and the unglamorous daily structures that quietly hold recovery together.
The Whole System
Coaching for loved ones alongside our family program, so the home your recovery lives in gets stronger too.
Staying Connected
Aftercare groups, alumni connection, and ongoing community through our group schedule and open family meetings.
Three Layers of Support
As you step down through levels of care, we keep you connected to clinical support, peers, and family, so momentum is never lost.
Step Down
Ongoing outpatient support and mentoring that protect your progress after a higher level of care, here or anywhere.
Family Healing
Education, guided sessions, and open family meetings so the people who love you can help recovery hold.
Community
A rotating schedule of process, relapse-prevention, and aftercare groups that keep you connected to the work and to people who understand.
Our Approach
Mentoring does not diagnose, treat, or replace therapy; it makes therapy hold. Mentors coordinate with your clinicians with your written authorization, respect your privacy absolutely, and meet you in the real settings where recovery is actually won: your home, your workweek, your travel, your relationships. We are honest about cost up front, and every arrangement is customized around you.

One-on-one, real-world recovery support from a trained recovery professional: accountability, structure, routine building, and practice of the skills you learn in therapy, delivered in daily life rather than an office. It is coordinated with your clinical team and customized around you.
Therapists diagnose and treat; mentors support and reinforce. Your therapist works on why the pattern exists; your mentor helps you live differently between sessions. The two coordinate, with your authorization, so nothing falls through the gap.
A higher-presence form of support: a recovery professional alongside you for travel, events, transitions, or high-risk windows, with complete discretion. Companioning is common for executives, high-visibility clients, and the weeks right after residential treatment.
It is woven into every phase of our Individualized Intensive Program and can be added to PHP, IOP, or weekly therapy. It is delivered through Heights Mentoring, our sister practice, and coordinated with your clinicians.
Yes. Many clients come to mentoring after residential treatment or therapy elsewhere. We coordinate with your existing providers when you authorize it, and simply provide the real-world support layer most programs never build.
Cadence is customized: daily check-ins early on, a few meetings per week as stability builds, or full-day companioning when circumstances call for it. Support steps down as your footing strengthens.
Completely. Discretion is foundational to the practice, especially for professional and high-visibility clients, and information is shared with clinicians or family only with your written authorization.
Mentoring and companioning are private-pay concierge services. We explain pricing clearly before you commit, and superbills are available where clinical services apply.
