About Andrews Behavioral Healthcare
Andrews Behavioral Healthcare is a residential and outpatient treatment facility located at 2323 West Front Street in Tyler, Texas, serving Smith County and the surrounding Tyler area. The center addresses substance use disorder as well as co-occurring conditions including mental illness, intellectual and developmental disabilities, severe emotional disturbances, and autism — a breadth of clinical scope that sets it apart from single-diagnosis programs in East Texas.
The facility provides medical detox, making it one of the options in Tyler where withdrawal management takes place under clinical oversight. Beyond detox, Andrews offers both a standard outpatient program and an intensive outpatient program (IOP), creating a structured continuum that allows patients to step down after detox and continue treatment closer to home. These three levels of care — medical detox, OP, and IOP — are confirmed services at this location.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is among the therapeutic methods used at Andrews Behavioral Healthcare. The program treats substance use disorder alongside mental health conditions, reflecting a dual-diagnosis orientation grounded in the center’s confirmed clinical scope rather than a single-track addiction model.
Andrews serves adolescents, veterans, and individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing — populations that frequently face barriers to finding appropriate detox and treatment programs. Payment options include Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, self-pay, and a sliding scale fee structure, reducing financial obstacles for those who need to act quickly. TRICARE acceptance is a specific asset for the military and veteran community in East Texas seeking medically supervised detox and follow-on outpatient care.
