AFTERCARE HELPS YOU TRANSITION TO LIFE AFTER ADDICTION
For the chronic addict or alcoholic, life after addiction treatment can be a life of freedom if you have the right tools and can transition properly to a sober life. However, if you don’t have the proper tools, then long-term recovery is unlikely and the unmanageability of drugs and alcohol will return.
Burning Tree Ranch’s Aftercare Program gives chronic addicts and alcoholics the tools and skills to be able to transition to a life of sobriety after a rehab program.

Two Phases of After Care
After going through the Burning Tree Ranch recovery process and the Family Program, clients begin transitioning to our After Care program.
Our transition is designed to be slow and strategic. When helping chronic addicts and alcoholics we have found that most of our clients needed a smoother transition from treatment back into the real world.
Our After Care Program lasts a little over a year and is designed to develop needed life skills and gives our clients the time to adjust to sober living and make sobriety a habit.
1. Sober Living Aftercare Phase:
The first phase of our aftercare program is going to our gender-specific sober living home in Dallas. Our sober living homes are structured to have high accountability and community.
2. Independent Living Phase:
We recommend participants transition into independent living with one or two peers from the Burning Tree Ranch community. This helps each member of our aftercare program keep each other accountable and inside the Burning Tree community.
