Questions people ask about Harris Ctr for Mental Health and IDD
Is Harris Ctr for Mental Health and IDD inpatient or outpatient?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Houston has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Does Harris Ctr for Mental Health and IDD offer a detox?

Does Harris Ctr for Mental Health and IDD take court ordered treatment?
They take court referrals, which usually means they are used to the reporting side of it. Courts in Houston send people to places set up for it rather than to any opening.
Is treatment available in Spanish at Harris Ctr for Mental Health and IDD?
They work in Spanish as well as English. Ask whether the group sessions in Houston are in Spanish too, or only the one to one ones.
Are there other centers close to Harris Ctr for Mental Health and IDD?
There are 8 more within a short drive of Houston, so this does not have to be the only call you make.
Can family be involved in treatment?
Programs expect family contact rather than tolerating it, though the amount is set by the person in treatment. Family sessions are often the first place anybody explains what the next year is actually going to look like. Ask what the family program actually consists of and how often it meets.
Who answers the phone?
Someone asks what is going on, what has been tried before, and what insurance you have. Nobody needs a diagnosis to make this call, and most people making it do not have one. Have your insurance card and a list of medications next to you.
Is outpatient enough?
The levels run from a weekly appointment up to a residential bed, with two useful steps in between. People commonly start higher and step down, rather than choosing one level and staying there. Ask whether the center offers the middle levels or only a bed and a weekly appointment.
