About This Facility

What This Center Offers

Ochsner Addictive Behavior Unit focuses on helping individuals overcome drug and alcohol addiction through clinically-driven, compassionate care. The facility treats adults dealing with substance use disorders ranging from alcohol dependency to opioid, stimulant, and polysubstance addiction, along with common co-occurring conditions like anxiety, depression, and PTSD.

Core services typically include medical detoxification under clinical supervision, residential inpatient rehab with structured daily programming, and outpatient levels of care for those stepping down from higher-intensity treatment or balancing recovery with work and family. Therapeutic approaches usually include individual counseling, group therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), family sessions, and relapse prevention planning. The admissions team works with most major insurance carriers and can verify coverage during a single phone call. For specifics on current availability at this New Orleans location, call (844) 561-0606.

Self-Assessment

Is This the Right Rehab for You?

Quick self-check to help you decide. Tap any question to expand.

Do you need help as soon as possible (same-day or within 24 hours)?
Same-day admissions are often available at Ochsner Addictive Behavior Unit and similar centers in Louisiana. Call (844) 561-0606 to check current bed availability and start the intake process within minutes.
Is insurance coverage your main concern?
Most major plans — including Medicaid, Medicare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, and others — are commonly accepted at Louisiana rehabs. Our team can verify your specific benefits in minutes at no cost.
Are you unsure whether you need detox, inpatient, or outpatient care?
That decision usually comes down to medical risk during withdrawal, severity of use, home stability, and any co-occurring mental health diagnoses. An admissions specialist can walk through your situation and recommend the right level of care.
Do you have a mental health condition alongside substance use?
Many New Orleans area clients have a dual diagnosis — depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, or trauma history. Integrated treatment addresses both at the same time, which produces better long-term outcomes than treating them separately.
Is it important to stay close to home during rehab?
Staying in Louisiana offers real benefits: family can attend therapy, discharge planning coordinates with local outpatient providers, and you maintain connections to support systems that matter for long-term recovery.
