Why Affirm
An addiction treatment center shaped by the question, “What would we want for someone we love?”
Affirm Recovery Center was created around a simple standard: people should be met with care, useful information, and dignity when they ask for help.
The result is an adult substance use IOP that feels warm and grounded. Addiction treatment can include group and individual therapy, family support, recovery education, relapse prevention, and skills for daily life. The clinical plan comes from screening and assessment, not a broad promise.
Affirm is located on North Lamar in Austin, TX. The space is designed to feel calm and human, with room for honest conversation. If a different level of care is needed, the admissions team can help explain the next appropriate step.

2
Talk through what is happening
Share the basics and ask any question that is on your mind.

The team helps identify the next appropriate level-of-care step.
Focused outpatient care
Structure for recovery. Space for the life you are still living.
Affirm’s intensive outpatient program (IOP) in Austin, TX is for adults whose screening supports addiction treatment without an overnight stay.
IOP is available now with day and evening options. Affirm’s partial hospitalization program is opening soon and is not yet enrolling.
Day and evening programming can make care more workable around a job, school, parenting, or other responsibilities. That flexibility does not make IOP casual. It is a structured level of care with scheduled clinical work and an individualized addiction treatment plan.
- First-day intake and introductions
- Group and individual therapy in the first week
- Practical recovery and relapse-prevention skills
- Family support when it fits the addiction treatment plan
An honest boundary
Affirm does not provide detox. We will tell you that clearly.
Withdrawal can require medical care before outpatient addiction treatment begins. If screening suggests detox should come first, admissions can help coordinate an outside referral. In a medical emergency, call 911.
Understand detox before IOPInsurance and self-pay
Coverage questions deserve a real answer, not a logo wall.
Commercial insurance may cover part of IOP, and self-pay is available. The useful answer depends on your specific plan.
Affirm will not promise coverage before verification or display carrier logos that have not been approved. The admissions team can review benefit information, explain what the plan reports, and help you understand which questions still need an answer.

Common questions
Clear answers before you make a decision
What is an intensive outpatient program (IOP) in Austin, TX for substance use?
A substance use intensive outpatient program (IOP) in Austin, TX provides scheduled therapy and recovery support without an overnight stay. Adults return home after programming and can often continue work, school, or family responsibilities. A screening helps determine whether IOP is a safe and appropriate level of care.
Who can call Affirm Recovery Center?
Adults considering addiction treatment, family members, therapists, physicians, attorneys, employers, and other referral partners may call. You do not need to know the right level of care before reaching out. The admissions conversation is a place to explain what is happening, ask questions, and learn what screening comes next.
Does Affirm provide detox in Austin, TX?
No. Affirm Recovery Center does not provide detox or emergency stabilization. If withdrawal risk or another medical concern suggests that detox should come first, the admissions team can help coordinate a referral to an outside provider. Call 911 for a medical emergency or immediate danger.
Can I use insurance for IOP?
Commercial insurance may help cover intensive outpatient addiction treatment, but benefits, authorization, deductibles, and network rules differ by plan. Affirm does not promise coverage before verification. Call the admissions team or use the insurance-verification path so staff can review your plan and explain the information they receive.
Are day and evening options available?
Affirm offers day and evening programming. Exact group times and the recommended schedule depend on current availability and the addiction treatment plan. An admissions team member can discuss current options when you call for a screening.
What happens during the first week?
The first day centers on intake and introductions. During the first week, clients begin group and individual therapy and get oriented to the program. The details of an addiction treatment plan depend on the screening and clinical assessment, so the first week is also a time to ask questions and settle into the rhythm.
