Stella Center Houston

Stella Center Houston operates as a certified Stella clinic inside the Performance Pain and Sports Medicine office. It offers biologically based treatments intended to lessen symptoms of anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. The clinical team reviews each person's symptom history and medical background to decide whether the approach is appropriate for them.

The clinic's core service is dual sympathetic reset, which uses stellate ganglion block. A practitioner gives an injection close to a group of nerves that help regulate automatic functions such as heart rate and blood pressure. The aim is to help settle the body's fight-or-flight response toward a more usual baseline. Stellate ganglion block is approved by the FDA for pain management and is often used off-label for mental health symptoms, in line with findings in medical research.

Optional one-on-one counseling can be added to the biological treatment to support the overall plan. The staff adjusts care according to the person's needs, diagnoses, and preferences. Financing is available on-site, and payments can be made through health savings accounts and flexible spending accounts.

Outpatient care at Stella Center Houston

Stella Center Houston offers outpatient care only, which means people come to scheduled appointments and go home afterward rather than staying overnight. Its main treatment is a dual sympathetic reset using stellate ganglion block, which the center describes as a biological method. Optional one-on-one counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and psychoeducation are offered as well. These therapies can help a person name their symptoms and build coping strategies. The clinic combines biological treatment with talking therapies for anxiety and PTSD in Houston within a plan built for the individual. Symptoms, diagnoses, and personal preferences shape each plan. If transportation or a work schedule makes weekly visits difficult, ask about possible appointment arrangements. Stella Center Houston offers outpatient care that fits around daily life in Texas rather than a residential stay. For severe symptoms or a need for overnight monitoring, a higher level of care may fit better, and our support line can help you compare the choices.

Since Stella Center Houston concentrates on outpatient services, it offers neither detox nor residential beds. For anyone withdrawing from alcohol or benzodiazepines, clinical supervision should guide the process, because those withdrawals can become dangerous. The helpline can link you to SAMHSA-listed programs in Houston that provide medically monitored detox.

Paying for care at Stella Center Houston
