Our medically supervised detox program in San Antonio provides a safe and supportive environment to begin the healing process. We understand that withdrawal can be one of the most challenging steps in recovery, which is why our experienced clinical team offers 24/7 care to manage symptoms and ensure your comfort.
Often referred to as a “day program”, the PHP program is Monday through Friday, 9am to 3pm. You might choose to attend the PHP level after having completed detox and residential treatment.
Intensive Outpatient treatment is a more flexible treatment program than Partial Hospitalization.
It runs Monday through Friday and offers a morning and evening program.
Our program includes comprehensive daily treatment sessions from Monday to Thursday, 6-9 PM, designed to prevent relapse and promote both physical and mental well-being. This flexible option accommodates those with daytime commitments, making quality care accessible without compromising daily responsibilities.
Outpatient therapy offers a weekly individual session and provides ongoing enrichment opportunities such as community events, family meetings, recovery meetings, and use of the clubhouse.

For those struggling with alcoholism, professional alcohol addiction treatment can provide a way forward to a life of sobriety.

MAT includes medications, while behavioral therapies address addiction causes and provide coping strategies for recovery.

Our Reviews
Stephanie SummersJune 27, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alcohol was absolutely going to kill me, had I not found Blue Heron Recovery! From the first day, (although terrified not knowing what to expect) I felt very welcomed and safe. The facility is in a beautiful location surrounded by nature. I never felt a "hospital or jail" vibe. There is a brand new detox center and outpatient treatment available. They also incorporate yoga and meditation classes throughout the week. Heather and Lisa are AMAZING and truly care about each clients recovery. The staff work really hard to make the environment safe, fun, and healing. My therapist, Jim, is a super cool guy who treats everyone with respect which makes it easier to talk about difficult things. I owe much of my success to Jim! The owners Dr. Christina and Dr. Paul Mayer are some of the nicest people I've met and are frequently on-site teaching classes or engaging with clients. I have a long way to go, but my life as a whole is significantly better since completing the outpatient program at Blue Heron! I would highly recommend Blue Heron Recovery to anyone even considering getting help for addiction. The VOICES of Our VeteransJune 20, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a Local Veterans Advocate and “Recovering” from Addictions. I have not only referred Veterans to this Wonderful Location and Treatment center but I have a family as an “Alumni” in Recovery. The Leadership and Administrative Staff have been VERY Supportive and Committed to their mission. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE “Blue Heron” San Antonio Facility! Thanks Team Blue Heron! Steven Price Founder & Team Leader, The VOICES of Our Veterans Henry HaywoodJune 20, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I started my adventure into recovery, reaching out blindly for help, and didn't know where this all would go.. I can say today I am comfortable in my recovery and interested in helping others recover.. Lisa and Heather know how to welcome you into your personal journey. it's not a general pace, but at your pace. Counselors are different in treatment based on experience. This can honestly be beneficial to clients, but overwhelming for some counselors .. First day is like you walked into a library or Granny Heron's as the furniture seems acquired and expensive.. The whole environment is there to be relaxed and inviting, bringing you into your recovery without judgment. This isn't the commercial institution you were scared of. it's the support you need. Antoinette VillaJune 19, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely beautiful location with an amazing admissions coordinator!! I am grateful that they opened detox at this facility. Have heard nothing but great things from those that receive their services!

I have been attending recovery sessions at Blue Heron for a while now, it’s an amazing recovery society and I highly recommend checking this place out if you need help or just want to gain knowledge about recovery. I know we all have different situations in our lives, and Blue Heron recognizes and help with coping skills to suit all your needs. Great place in San Antonio for the help you need. Nate S (Nate)June 18, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They now have a detox. Great people working there with a great mission. Very accommodating. If you’re looking for help with addiction, give them a call. PrivateJune 18, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you are looking for a beautiful and safe space to recover from substance use and mental health issues, Blue Heron is a welcome respite. I have been through their detox and PHP program and couldn't ask for more. Patient's needs come first at this facility. The staff is understanding, caring, and will go above and beyond to make sure you get the best treatment at a pace that is most comfortable for you. Rebecca PavlovskyJune 18, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This recovery center is amazing! Its like a little piece of heaven in the middle of the city! Lots of trees and space, they even have a new detox center that just opened. The people here are so nice and the scenery is to beautiful. Alvin WilliamsonJune 18, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I Came to Blue Herron right after a 30 day detox/PHP. Initially I came for IOP but soon realized that PHP is what I needed. The staff was warm and welcoming and quickly made me feel like family! The curriculum and activities became part of my daily regimen. And that’s what I needed a schedule to keep me busy. My counselor Jim was amazing and easy to talk with about my journey through sobriety and my personal life. I would recommend Blue Herron to anyone! 5 Stars! Kathy BonnemaJune 18, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am very grateful for the staff and prigram at Blue Heron. My son has made a tremendous amount of progress with his recovery.
