About

About Townsend Recovery Center

Townsend Recovery Center is a residential addiction treatment facility located at 195 Highland Park Plaza in Covington, Louisiana, serving patients from across Louisiana as well as Oklahoma, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, and Texas. Operating 24 hours a day, the center functions as a full-continuum program — from initial medically supervised detox through longer-term residential care — positioned in Saint Tammany Parish within reach of the greater New Orleans metro area.

The facility offers four distinct levels of care: Medical Detox, Residential Treatment, Intensive Outpatient (IOP), and an Outpatient Program. Medical detox is the entry point for individuals requiring withdrawal management under clinical supervision, available around the clock. Residential Treatment follows for those who need structured, live-in care beyond the detox phase. The IOP and standard Outpatient Program provide step-down options, allowing patients to transition toward independence while maintaining clinical support.

Townsend Recovery Center’s treatment framework addresses co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis alongside addiction, and includes trauma and PTSD as recognized conditions treated at the facility. Therapeutic methods confirmed at the center include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, individual therapy, group therapy, substance abuse education, cognitive testing, and chronic disease management. The facility also incorporates weekly family night and weekend outings as structured program elements, and maintains an alumni program to support patients after discharge.

Townsend serves men and women across a broad age range, including young adults (18–25) and seniors and older adults. Payment options include Medicaid, TRICARE, private insurance, sliding scale fees, and self-pay — a range that makes the program accessible to a wide cross-section of patients. For anyone weighing same-day admission or planning next steps for a family member, the center can be reached at (504) 608-5060 or by email at admissions@townsendla.com.

Medical Detox and Withdrawal Management at Townsend Recovery Center

For individuals who cannot safely stop using substances on their own, Townsend Recovery Center provides medical detox as the first and most critical stage of care. The program operates 24 hours a day, meaning clinical support is available at any hour — a practical consideration for anyone whose withdrawal timeline does not follow a business-hours schedule. Medical detox at Townsend is conducted within a residential facility, providing a higher level of oversight than outpatient withdrawal management programs.

Following detox, patients can move directly into Residential Treatment without changing facilities, preserving continuity of care during a period when disruption carries real clinical risk. This in-house progression from detox to residential programming is one of the structural advantages Townsend offers over stand-alone detox centers that discharge patients once withdrawal is medically stabilized.

Levels of Care: From Inpatient Detox to Outpatient Programs

Townsend Recovery Center operates across four confirmed levels of care: Medical Detox, Residential Treatment, Intensive Outpatient (IOP), and a standard Outpatient Program. This continuum means a patient can enter at the medically appropriate level and step down through progressively less intensive programming without leaving the Townsend system. For many patients, beginning with inpatient detox and moving through residential care before transitioning to IOP represents a clinically sound trajectory.

The Intensive Outpatient Program is designed for individuals who have completed a higher level of care or whose clinical presentation does not require 24-hour supervision. The standard Outpatient Program functions as both a primary treatment option and a step-down from IOP. An alumni program and continuing outpatient services extend support into the post-treatment period, addressing one of the most vulnerable windows in long-term recovery.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment and Therapeutic Approach

Townsend Recovery Center formally treats co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis, as well as trauma and PTSD — recognizing that substance use disorders rarely exist in isolation. The clinical model incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, individual and group therapy, substance abuse education, cognitive testing, and chronic disease management. This combination reflects a treatment approach that accounts for the psychological and physiological dimensions of addiction simultaneously.

Weekly family night is built into the program structure, acknowledging that addiction affects households, not only individuals. Weekend outings are also part of the residential experience. These program elements, combined with a post-discharge alumni program, reflect a treatment model that extends beyond clinical stabilization toward longer-term support.
