OPI Houston

Another unforgettable graduation we witnessed this week - Ashlee! Ashlee, watching you evolve, push past limits, and claim your space with such dignity, was awe-inspiring. We're so proud of you and can't wait to see the amazing things you'll achieve.

Cheers to Jade, a truly deserving graduate of OPI Houston! Witnessing your transformation into a confident, witty, and strong individual has been such a highlight. Your unique combo of humor, strength, and charm has made such a lasting impact, and we're honored to have been able to celebrate you a few week ago. We are so proud of you, Jade!

Tuesdays are the best with our “In Real Life” group! Micah, one of our amazing therapists at the Apartments, always keeps things lively with fun activities like pickleball - it's the perfect way to support each other and step out of our comfort zones!

Our young adults deserve to have fun - so, when our team suggested a sober rave at the ranch for all clients, they were all in. Clients helped design the flyer, make the playlist, lead the dance floor - and everyone got to let off some steam and CONNECT. True healing starts with connection.

Just had to share this beautiful painting one of our clients just finished of our horse, Bonus. The impact he (and the other horses!) can make on our clients is life-changing. We love you, Bonus!

Our Transition clients participated in Horsemanship/Equine-Assisted Regulation group yesterday, where they practiced the DBT Skill, STOP, via an obstacle course. We're thrilled our clients get to stay connected with our horses even after transitioning to the Apartments!

Yesterday was a blast at our joint-campus holiday party, at the Transition office! Staff and clients came together for some friendly competition, tasty eats, and quality time. What a great way to close out the year!

Congratulations to Lily! Through this journey, she learned how to let go of what was out of her control, trust the process, and believe that her people would still be there for her - even in the midst of the hard. Her growth, courage, and willingness to stay honest with herself made all the difference. We are so proud of the strength it took to keep going and choose healing. This milestone is so well earned for Lily and her whole family - we are so proud of you and your hard work, Lily!

Celebrating Lucia’s graduation 🤍 A journey marked by real triumphs, setbacks, and a whole lot of humor and grace through it all. From that first month - when she joked daily about “leaving tomorrow” - to pushing through challenges that would’ve set anyone else back, Lucia kept showing up and doing the work. She truly didn’t quit before the miracle happened, and neither did her family. “Hey, man,” - we are so proud of the strength, resilience, and heart it took to get here - this milestone is so well deserved. Congratulations, Lucia!

Some of our clients kicked off Thanksgiving earlier this week with gratitude, good energy, and giving back at the Houston Food Bank! We love when our ranch and transition clients can come together to support others (and themselves!).
