Addiction is a complicated disease that requires a fully integrated approach to treatment. While it’s important to address the physical side effects of addiction, the negative, unhealthy, self-destructive behavioral patterns that contribute to substance use are deeply rooted in thoughts and emotions. It’s critical to engage in personalized clinical programming that is designed to help address destructive behavior and effect real change.
At our intensive healing and medical detox center in Eglin, TX, we plan personalized clinical programming for every person who wants through our doors. With a focus on whole-person healing, we know that just helping someone overcome withdrawal symptoms isn’t enough. We offer medical detox and four- to six-week residential addiction treatment so our clients can get a head start on a lifetime of sobriety.

Evidence-Based Addiction Treatment in Texas
Our clinical programming is focused on promoting sobriety, building bonds with others in recovery, and managing underlying mental health symptoms. A normal treatment schedule in our center includes:
- Daily group therapy
- Individual therapy twice a week
- Weekly one-on-one recovery coaching
- Daily personal training sessions
- Experiential group therapies, such as yoga, meditation, and art therapy

The combination of evidence-based therapies and holistic experiences helps promote sobriety as a lifestyle, not just something to achieve. Instilling healthy habits and appreciation for life helps our clients feel comfortable as they live in newfound sobriety.
Whole-Person Healing with Dual Diagnosis Therapy
Many people who have a substance use disorder are also dealing with a co-occurring mental health disorder. Common co-occurring mental health disorders include:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Bipolar disorder
- Attachment issues
- ADHD
- Obsessive-compulsive disorder
Clinical programming for addiction treatment should focus on long-term sobriety and managing mental health symptoms. Treatment that does not consider dual diagnosis symptoms often leads to relapse.
We Use Proven Clinical Therapies
Awareness of addiction is not enough to lead to actual changes in behavior. For genuine healing and lasting recovery, treatment must incorporate evidence-based clinical therapies that teach clients how to process their emotions, improve their interpersonal skills, and confront the underlying issues that contributed to their substance use.
At Makana Path, our team of expert clinicians utilizes several types of therapy:
- Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) – CBT is a solution-focused therapy that helps clients understand the connection between thoughts, feelings, and emotions. Then, they identify unhealthy, negative self-talk and thought patterns and replace them with more productive, positive language.
- Cognitive processing therapy (CPT) – This form of CBT is particularly effective in reducing symptoms related to PTSD.
- Attachment theory-based therapies – Attachment therapies address the unhealthy, insecure attachment styles related to long-term relationships, especially parent-child or caregiver-child relationships, which can significantly impact behavior and relationships throughout childhood and into adulthood.
- Internal family systems (IFS) – IFS seeks to help clients recognize how their sub-personalities related to childhood pain and trauma impact their lives and how understanding their system as a whole can help them achieve improved well-being.
- Rational emotive behavioral therapy (REBT) – REBT is an action-oriented type of CBT designed to produce results by teaching clients how to change irrational beliefs resulting from emotional reactions to events.
- Narrative therapy – This type of psychotherapy views clients separately from their problems. It helps clients identify their values and the knowledge and skills they need to fulfill them so they can minimize and overcome their problems.
We also weave components of dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) into our clinical programming. DBT aims to improve mindfulness and interpersonal communication skills and teach clients how to accept negativity and regulate emotions.
