About Avenues Recovery Center: Drug & Alcohol Rehab In Metairie

Avenues Recovery Center at Louisiana is a luxury rehab in Metairie, Louisiana. With medical detox, inpatient treatment, and sober living options, you’ll benefit from a tranquil environment to focus on recovery. They welcome adults seeking care for addiction and co occurring disorders.

One thing that caught my eye is their campus. In their residential program, they provide a modern, safe space to step away from everyday life and focus solely on recovery. When you’re not participating in sessions at the facility, you live in luxurious, fully renovated townhomes with peers in recovery. You’ll feel at home with beautifully designed living spaces, a pickleball court, and more.

You may start treatment in detox to rid your body of substances before transitioning to residential rehab. Their programs blend proven and holistic approaches to provide a full spectrum of care. You’ll benefit from a personalized treatment plan that meets you where you are in recovery. They offer multiple individual and group sessions, workshops, and classes to help you gain coping skills to reach your recovery goals. You can access 12 Step meetings, counseling, therapy, art, music, meditation, yoga, and much more.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

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.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Program sessions are held in the evenings, allowing the patient to live an otherwise normal life while receiving treatment for his or her addiction. This also allows for a maximum amount of privacy and confidentiality for the patient. Intensive Outpatient Program treatment is a program beginning with up to 8 weeks of 4 meetings a week, followed by a weekly group attendance expectation which can last up to 1 year or longer. Members of the client’s primary support system are encouraged to participate weekly. However, the spouse or significant other is expected to attend all sessions. This gives the individual and family time and support in which to heal together.

inpatient iconInpatient

The Residential Treatment Program has two phases: Education and Application. The first phase focuses on addiction education, integration into the recovery community, basic life skills, and identification of self as having a disease. It uses the community of those in treatment as a tool to identify and modify self-destructive behaviors. After completing Education, patients can progress into the Application phase. In this phase, patients work on deeper core issues such as childhood trauma and sexual abuse, grief and divorce and mental health issues. Working on these issues help prevent relapse by learning to recognize triggers that cause relapse. Application acts as a transitional phase where regular work, school or a volunteer activity is mandatory. It allows the patient to remain in treatment, but have more interaction with normal living.

sober-living iconSober Living Homes

The Transitional Living Program is modeled to provide medium to long term housing and case management services to persons in early recovery. Learning to live with addiction in a safe, stable living environment with support for recovery group (12 step) attendance is imperative to long term successful sobriety. Transitional Living is designed to be an intermediate step between full independence and successful completion of an addiction treatment program such as residential treatment, intensive outpatient treatment, or competent treatment in another facility. The goal of the program is to facilitate the acquisition of the skills necessary for successful integration/re-integration into the work world and social/family life.

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).

aftercare iconAftercare Support

The Continuing Care Program is an integral continuation of the treatment process. It is a weekly 1.25-hour adult outpatient program that continues the treatment process to perpetuate those gains previously made by patients completing the Residential Treatment or Intensive Outpatient programs. The Continuing Care Program is also available to patients from other treatment facilities who have completed primary treatment and wish to relocate or return to home environments. The program provides random urine drug test monitoring, case management assistance, and encouraged participation in outside sponsor meetings and/or Alcoholic/Narcotics Anonymous meetings.

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.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.

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.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

While each drug rehab in Louisiana offers unique elements, recovery support often follows a similar pattern. Detox is followed by inpatient and/or outpatient care, then aftercare support is provided once the participant completes the initial program.

check iconDual Diagnosis

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

mental-health iconMental Health and Substance Abuse

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.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

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 iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

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.

family iconFamily Therapy

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.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

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.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

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.

life-skills iconLife Skills

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.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

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.

nicotine iconNicotine Replacement Therapy

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.

Rational Behavior Therapy

Rational Behavior Therapy (RBT) is a form of cognitive behavioral therapy meant to be short-term and comprehensive. It was intended to help clients become more self-sufficent and move forward without the need for expensive, ongoing therapy. It includes an emotional self-help method called “rational self-counseling,” the purpose of which is to give clients all the skills needed to handle future emotional issues by themselves, or with significantly less professional help.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

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.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

Couples therapy focuses on helping the couple develop skills that will improve the relationship. These include communication, conflict resolution, and anger management. Couples also identify dysfunctional behaviors and work to eliminate them.

So I went to Avenues on the north shore (which was great) but I attend Alumni at the Metairie Avenues near my home and I just want to say thank you to everyone here for all the help and support. Without you guys, I d be alone on this journey and this is a struggle no one can overcome on their own. Thank you, Ashley and Sam! Y all have big hearts and I thank you for all your help.*11/16/2023 Update*Just want to say thank you to the Avenues Alumni program. It has been instrumental in making me feel connected with the sober community and thus, maintaining my sobriety. I have 7 months of sobriety, soon to be 8. Thank you to everyone that s active with alumni, you are like beacons of light for those of us in the darkness of addiction. Love you.*8/23/24 Update*Coming up on 17 months in 3 days and currently at my weekly Avenues alumni meeting.

I was a patient at Avenues for 50 days and they have a wonderful program. The staff is respectful and reasonable and they hire within. Most members of staff are alumni from the program. Therefore the staff are very understanding and have been exactly where the patients are. The fellowship at Avenues is genuine and real. I ve made life long friendships there. The housing arrangements are the best I ve seen at any rehab. There are about 3 to 4 people in each apartment and it teaches cleanliness, to coexist, and teamwork. I would highly recommend my family, friends, and anyone who has a problem with drugs or alcohol to Avenues Recovery Center.

Response from the owner1 year ago
Your recommendation is very appreciated, Haleigh! Having people on the staff who have made the recovery journey themselves is truly a blessing, both to our organization as well as our clients. Avenues is very grateful we were able to be there in your time of need. Keep up the great work!
