Admissions Criteria - Next Step Behavioral Houston

The criteria for admission into the program for all newcomers will be based on their ability to participate voluntarily and benefit from the services we offer.   Next Step Behavioral Houston is a private pay agency. We also accept most insurances. Please keep in mind just because we accept insurance that does not mean treatment is covered. It is your responsibility to call the insurance company to verify coverage for residential treatment. In all cases, there will be an out of pocket monthly expense for room and board, which is not covered by insurance.

If you or your family member meets the admission criteria listed below, please call us.  We are ready to discuss our treatment program and began the healing and growth work.
