I was there when I was 15 and it was a horrible place to be I am transgender and I go by he him pronouns and I go by the name Ace and they refused to Valk me by what I preferred they would say that it was against hippa laws even though I knew that was a lie because I was in dcfs and my own judge called me by these things. While I was there I felt very uncomfortable by certain things, like when I would self harm or even had thoughts about it they would put me in see through scrubs and I was not allowed to shower or use the bathroom in private, there was always a staff in the room. When I was there I got sick and they said that they would be surprised if it was covid which it was and they didn't test me for a week. They would completely disregard what we where going through and wouldn't even let us talk most of the time we had about 2 or 3 hours of the day to talk. I am now 18 and am still suffering from what happened there. On my 16 birthday we had a talent show and my therapist told me that I shouldn't have won because of the song I sang. But in reality I won it far and square. Please do not send your kids there.

Here are many of the terrible experiences I had here:1. They lied on every single thing that is on the website2. The facility always smelled like weed and/or cigarettes and when the patients would complain that it was a trigger than they would get yelled at for disrespecting an adult3. The therapists, nurses, and techs would CONSTANTLY violate our HIPPA laws and talk about our personal issues and I v first handily been in the room while they ve done this4. If you got hungry past dinner time (which was at 5) u got a snack at 630 and were denied anything else5. If ur parent did not answer ur call the first time you did not get to call again. Even if the parent called back, you couldn t answer6. I saw multiple children get injured here because they belonged in a detention home.7. They have this thing called pause where it s 48 hrs of seclusion where even if they find out u didn t do anything, you couldn t be taken off8. Children would lie on other children CONSTANTLY and didn t get in trouble for it and they would NEVER listen to the victims events of what happened.9. We were treated like animals and if u were caught hurting yourself or even had thoughts they would make u wear see through clothes for 3 days or until they determined u could get ur stuff back not only that but you were also put on pause FOR HURTING YOURSELF U GET PUT IN SECLUSION???I went here in 2022, as I see it by the most recent reviews, nothing has changed. I m going to college in the fall and have recovered mentally. Please do not send your child here. It s not worth it. Get them help somewheres else because I wouldn t wish my experience here on anyone.P.S. on my birthday they promised me cupcakes and a call to my mother that they never gave me. Got my hopes up and then turned their back and changed their mind the day before. And when I cried they made me bring my stuff in the hallway for pause

Accepted Insurance

Our Policy: Acadiana Treatment Center works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact us to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Clients enrolled in outpatient rehab typically need less intensive supervision and support than those in inpatient care. Clients may continue to work and attend school while participating in addiction counseling and recovery education during the evening, night, or weekend. Clients also often enter intensive outpatient (IOP) treatment immediately upon exiting residential care, which provides them with high-level step-down support as they reintegrate into their homes and communities.
inpatient iconInpatient
Their highly rated residential program involves a thirty to ninety day inpatient stay on their beautiful campus, where the patient can relax and focus her/his attention on what’s most important – getting sober. The primary focus of their residential program is to help the patient to become emotionally stable, learn more about the disease of addiction, learn and develop recovery skills and resources, and adopt principles of recovery. As they are a holistic rehab center, they’re focused on treating all mind, body, and spirit.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Their Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), is specifically designed for those individuals who have reached a place in their recovery such that they feel ready and prepared to re-enter their regular lives and assume their former responsibilities. Those attending our IOP program have also begun to recognize and correct the consequences of their substance abuse in terms of such areas of employment issues and interpersonal relationships. The focus of this program is on the individual’s readiness to commit to assuming personal responsibility for the course of their life, setting goals to meet this commitment, and planning and engaging in actions that lead to successfully accomplishing their objectives.
12-step icon12-Step
12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).
partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program
A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.
24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care
Initial phases of rehab treatment often require 24-hour clinical care in Louisiana. This supervised treatment offers three main benefits. Medical staff can provide medications to treat withdrawal. Clients can also benefit from having 24-hour nursing staff available to treat any other physical symptoms. Lastly, this setting ensures that professionals are constantly available to address any emotional or mental health issues related to the addiction or co-occurring disorders.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

Treatments

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Programs

teen-program thumbnail image
Teen Program
Teen programs are designed to address the unique pressures teens face, pressures that can drive them to experiment with dangerous, addictive substances. They need programs that meet them exactly where they are and give them tools for long-term recovery. Therapy can help teenagers understand and work through underlying issues so they can reclaim the life ahead of them.
adult-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
program-for-men thumbnail image
Program For Men
Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.
program-for-women thumbnail image
Program For Women
Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
lgbtq-program thumbnail image
LGBTQ Program
Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

EMDR is a therapeutic modality originally developed to help process trauma. In an EMDR session, a patient is prompted to undergo eye movements that mimic those of REM sleep. This is accomplished by watching a therapist's finger move back and forth across, or following a bar of light. The goal is repetitive sets of eye movements that help the brain reprocess memory, which can significantly reduce the intensity of remembered traumatic incidents. Associated memories can heal simultaneously, leaving patients significantly calmer, more stable, and more emotionally relaxed.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

My daughter has been there going on two months now. She has contacted her father and there has been interaction between her and her father. She s angry at me she s 14 years old that s probably not uncommon .I have yet to hear from anyone from this hospital. I have made four phone calls still no return call I ve gone as far as to leave a message with the Director, who has changed hands twice apparently and Human ResourcesStill nothing if I didn t live two hours away, I would be in their office this morning. This is unacceptable.Update as of January, 19,2024My Daughter is being released today and i will say she seems better and did recieve some loving care here , however, communication was absolutely aweful.No exit planNo return phone call from her therapistjust come and get her shes all ready!Almost seems as though these children are being released and set up to fail.If I had better Ins she would have not gone here.

As a former employee this place is not some where you want your kids to go! While working there I have seen therapist, techs, and nurses talk negative about other staff in front of the clients. Some nurses and techs have talked about clients to other clients and have violated HIPAA in so many different ways! They fed a client only sandwiches because the client complained about the food and the client ate sandwiches for at least a month! They discriminate against clients by saying they cant use certain things that then company provides!!!!! There is no type of structure at all and everyone is not on the same page with how they should and shouldnt run a unit!!!! If you do your job you get fired but if your messy, and have your clients pick you will continue to have a job!!!! Sometimes the parking lot and inside of the building smells like weed!!! It might look good on the outside but its nothing like they claim it to be!!! Some clients came and left 100 times worse then they was when they got there!!!!!

This was the first rehab I had ever went to. This was in 2015 or 16 well they were located I think in Lafayette and when I got signed in to stay they were moving like the 3rd day that I was there to sunset location . It was cool to see . The old one looked like a house it was cool . I had came in and almost passed out and the nurses and staff made sure I was ok and saw a doctor and that mentally I was okay . I may not have been at my best but the staff and everyone here was so beyond kind and cared about everyone's sobriety and it was individualized and personal . It was pricey back then I'm not sure about now . I had ended leaving but I never forgot and alot of people will say it's about how people treat you that people remember. It helped me in the sobriety process . They were still kind and wanted me to stay so much but I needed something else . Well because I had went for the time length I stayed I got an AA book and I kept it all these years and today it still helps and has helped heal me. If it wasn't for that place I wouldn't know the AA way.

I mean im not sure what to say. In some ways it helped i just think some staff should handle some situations better considering weve been through alot. I dont like how u had to wait 3 days till u can call or go outside. I also dont like how they take our clothes and belongings for having thoughts we cant control sounds more like a punishment than safety precaution. It helped tho!
