Nexus Programs and Services
Residential Services
Adult Women
Nexus Family Recovery Center’s Adult Women (AW) program serves women ages 18 and older who are not actively parenting during their treatment. While in residential treatment, clients’ calendars are filled with individual counseling, educational sessions, and group therapy sessions.
Our AW clients engage in various activities that target the root of their substance use disorder (SUD). The goal is to treat their symptoms as they continue to develop life skills and foster a supportive community of people in recovery.
Pregnant and Parenting Women with Children
The Pregnant & Parenting Women with Children (PPWC) program provides residential treatment to adult women in all stages of pregnancy and mothers with up to three children ages 0-12. Nexus is one of a few residential treatment facilities in Texas that invites women to bring their children to treatment. Each PPWC client receives a comprehensive treatment plan with parenting and education classes, postpartum support, and family education sessions.
Alongside a team of licensed counselors, a child and family education specialist, a case manager, and recovery coaches, clients follow a full schedule of activities to support their individualized recovery journey.
Child Development Center
Nexus’ Child Development Center (CDC) is a fully licensed Texas Rising Star childcare center serving infants through school-aged children so mothers in treatment can focus on their recovery. The CDC offers speech therapy and occupational therapy for children in our residential programs.
After group sessions are done for the day, children in our PPWC program return to their mothers for the night, so they can heal and grow together as a family. In addition to the children of our residential clients, the CDC is also open to outpatient clients, staff, and the community.
Medical Services
Medical Detoxification
Some clients require medically supported detox due to the severity of their withdrawal symptoms. Our Medical Detoxification Program focuses on detoxification and stabilization to help individuals safely rid their bodies of harmful substances while addressing immediate withdrawal symptoms. The program provides medical supervision to ensure safety and comfort throughout the detox process.
After completing detox, Nexus’ treatment model encourages clients to continue onto residential treatment through our Adult Women and PPWC programs where women receive more intensive therapy and support.
Medication Assisted Treatment
Substance use disorder is a chronic disease that can physically, chemically, and permanently alter the brain. As with other chronic diseases, medication may be useful in treating substance use disorders. Nexus’ Medication Assisted Treatment program provides medications in combination with counseling and behavioral therapies for the treatment of some substance use disorders.
Pregnant women enrolled in our Medication Assisted Treatment program, even those in the late stages of pregnancy, have dramatically improved birth outcomes, allowing Nexus born infants a different chance at life than they would have experienced otherwise.
Psychiatric Services
Nexus’ approach involves addressing all barriers to recovery. For many clients, this may include treatment for Co-Occurring Psychiatric & Substance Use Disorders (COPSD).
Nexus’ medical providers offer psychiatric evaluations and medication management to our clients, while our master’s level counselors address the needs of each client, using evidence-based approaches to treat co-occurring mental health disorders and the complex trauma that may accompany substance use disorder.
Outpatient Services
Intensive Outpatient Program
Nexus’ Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) serves as a primary treatment for women or as a step-down from residential treatment. Our staff provides individualized plans and support networks for women managing daily living and recovery. By engaging in ongoing group and individual counseling, outpatients develop coping skills that support sustainable, long-term recovery.
Each month, Nexus celebrates outpatients who complete the IOP program with a graduation ceremony helping them to celebrate this major milestone as they move into long-term recovery!
Recovery Support Services
Recovery Support Services (RSS) offers experience, strength, and hope to women in recovery. Our certified Peer Specialists, many of whom are Nexus alums, help provide creative solutions, practical guidance, and education as well as employment and housing assistance to women in long-term recovery.
Using personal lived experience to connect with outpatients, Nexus’ Peer Specialists extend the reach of treatment beyond the clinical setting into the everyday environment of those seeking a successful, sustained recovery.

Nexus Generations
Our Nexus Generations program provides parenting education and comprehensive services to pregnant and parenting women. Through this program, clients participate in several hours of parenting classes per week and attend support groups to help on their recovery journeys and prepare them for motherhood. Counselors and advocates work with each expectant mother to ensure that navigation through complex family systems is more seamless.
Nexus Generations includes an alumni group called Mom Squad that provides fun activities with mothers and children in the program. The Mom Squad hosts a variety of activities such as visiting the Dallas Zoo, the Dallas Arboretum, White Rock Lake, and hanging out at White Rock Coffee and Sonic.
Throughout the year, Mom Squad also holds baby showers for expectant mothers, where moms-to-be received baby clothes, toiletries, and other supplies, all while celebrating their motherhood and recovery!
