Focus

This center treats substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. Your treatment plan addresses each condition at once with personalized, compassionate care for comprehensive healing.

Nestled in the serene landscapes of Bandera, Texas, Warriors Heart is an alcohol abuse, chemical dependency & PTSD treatment center dedicated exclusively to veterans, active military personnel, and first responders. Warriors Heart is a place where our nation's heroes come to heal with dignity amongst comrades- a place where the weight of their service is truly understood. Warriors Heart offers a compassionate and supportive environment tailored to their specific needs, understanding the unique challenges and silent traumas faced by those who have committed their lives to protect and serve. At Warriors Heart provides a comprehensive range of treatment options, including detoxification, residential treatment, a partial hospitalization program (PHP), an intensive outpatient program (IOP), and sober living. Their experienced team is dedicated to facilitating recovery through evidence-based practices and holistic therapies designed to promote healing and resilience. The resort-style ranch is a serene space to focus on healing the body, mind and spirit. Their rehabilitation approach is enhanced by programs that foster creativity and personal growth. Their art program provides a therapeutic outlet for self-expression, helping clients explore their emotions and experiences through various artistic mediums. Participants can engage in painting, drawing, and other creative activities that encourage healing and reflection. Additionally, they offer yoga and jiu-jitsu classes that promote physical fitness and mental clarity. Their classes are designed to build strength, flexibility, and resilience—both physically and emotionally. The SOC-F gym further supports their clients' fitness goals, providing a space for physical training that complements their recovery journey. The SHOP (Service-Honor-Opportunity- Purpose) program allows clients to explore their artistic side through woodworking and metalworking, while their K9 training program teaches participants how to train service animals, creating strong bonds that support their recovery journey. Clients also have the opportunity to leave training with a service or ESA K9. Warriors Heart’s vision is to “Bring 1 Million Warriors Home” to an environment that feels like the opposite of a hospital. And 90% of the staff are part of the warrior community, either as a warrior or have a loved one who is a warrior. Warriors Heart was designed to feel like a “home” with suite-like rooms, a private chef who cooks healthy meals, healing modalities and a ranch setting with open-space. Warriors Heart is more than just a rehabilitation center; it is a sanctuary for warriors to connect, share, and heal. Clients can openly discuss the silent battles they face, surrounded by peers who understand their experiences. Their community fosters camaraderie and support, crucial for the healing process. Warriors Anonymous is a specialty meeting that has been approved by AA World Services. Warriors Anonymous is an international fellowship of men and women who have had a drinking/drug problem. It is nonprofessional, self-supporting, multiracial, apolitical, and available almost everywhere. There are no age or education requirements. Membership is open to Warriors (active military, veteran or first responder) who want to do something about their drinking/drug problem. (Singleness of Purpose and Problems Other Than Alcohol) Some professionals refer to alcoholism and drug addiction as “substance abuse” or “chemical dependency.” Non-alcoholics are, therefore, sometimes introduced to W.A. and encouraged to attend W.A. meetings. Non-alcoholics may attend open W.A. meetings as observers, but only those with a drinking/drug problem may attend closed W.A. meetings.
