A Full Continuum of Care
NOLA Detox and Recovery Center provides a seamless continuum of care to support clients at every stage of their recovery. From medically supervised detox to structured sober living, each program is tailored to provide the appropriate level of support and therapy, guiding individuals toward sustainable, long-term sobriety.
Program Length: 3-10 Days
The first step for many, our detox program offers 24/7 medical supervision from a full nursing staff and doctor to manage withdrawal symptoms safely and comfortably. This crucial phase stabilizes the client physically, preparing them for the therapeutic work ahead.
Typical Stay: 28-35 Days
In the residential program, clients live on-site and engage in a highly structured schedule of individual, group, and family therapies. This supportive, substance-free environment allows clients to focus entirely on healing and developing recovery skills.
Schedule: Multiple sessions per week
IOP provides a step-down level of care where clients attend therapy for several hours a day while living at home or in sober living. This program is ideal for practicing recovery skills while managing work, school, or family responsibilities.
Commitment: Often paired with IOP
NOLA Detox offers sober living homes that provide a safe, structured, and substance-free environment. This option fosters peer support and accountability, often combined with IOP for a robust aftercare plan. A 6-month commitment is required for those pairing IOP with housing.
