Woodlake Addiction Recovery Center – Baton Rouge

I recently graduated the IOP program and I thank Woodlake for everything they've done to help me heal from addiction I highly recommend their trauma therapy that's what really gave me the breakthrough I needed to stay… sober

I believe woodlake is a amazing place. It gave so much back to those who were lost,and I think it's stupid for anyone to say anything else about this program. Kevin keeps it real and shows all of us our problems so we… can become what we are suppose too. Thanks for being there for me when I was broken. Always and forever grateful.

Woodlake center is the best place for anyone to get treatment and recovery.the staff has people who really care about the people they help and understand how to help them put there life back together.they have Education… on Tuesday night that helps everyone stay grounded in the program.And Kevin James for which anyone who is serious about changing there life,listening and understanding this man is the key to recovery.If not for him I would not be alive today.thanks Woodlake for be there when I needed them...

Went to the Denham location. This place is trash in my experience. The doctor loves to just give medications like they’re candy. I was naive then when I listened to him and accepted all of it, but he gave me way more… than I needed. I couldn’t even see or walk straight to go to my room that first night I took them. All I asked him for was something that would help me sleep around my nightmares. Not stuff to sedate an elephant. Then I was sick the days after and throwing up and sleeping through all of the meetings. Then with the whole men and women being separated. I’ve heard way more good things about Woodlake in Ethel and that one doesn’t have that dumb rule. All the women, myself included, were even punished one day because one of the guys tossed a girl a note. We were forced to stay inside while the guys went to what they like to call the gym on the other side of the fence. The guys walk around the halls up front while the girls are stuck in a room way in the back and all have to be escorted?? Served trashy food and were limited on what foods we’re allowed to bring in. Felt like jail all over again. Absolutely would not recommend this place to my worst enemy.

quite a handful of purely incompetent people, even the doctor gave my family member a whole extra prescription of suboxone and then tried to tell him that the sublocade shot wouldn’t show up in his blood, plus they only… went over 2 of their assignments and had a single 1-on-1 session over the course of the 3 months that they spent there, their inpatient was worth the time but surely can’t recommend their IOP program

The staff is amazing but my counselor rolled her eyes when i brought up my deepest issues and said “yeah, you’ve mentioned that”. No help

Woodlake helped me realize I was worthy and capable of living a happy joyful sober life. They were there side by side with me showing me how to use healthy tools to work out past traumas as well as laying down a healthy… foundation for a new me. All I needed to do was take the suggestions and work an honest program. My life today reflects all my hard work and determination. I am forever grateful for Woodlake, as today I consider them family...Thank you so much

They wouldn't take in my type-1 diabetic brother with a pump, said that his pump would be too much of a "liability."

Great rehab

Flexible hours for IOP and really good counselors. They will help you with EVERYTHING. This is more like a family. They offer treatment plans, one on one counseling, transitional living, and more. If you are in recovery… this is where you need to be at.

Best rehab ever!!! Ok, I want to start by saying this. Every body has a right to there own opinion of places and people of those places. I totally believe in the program of AA. The way Woodlake is set up and how they… choose to drill it into your head is absolutely the best way. 99% of the people that end up at rehab center is because of the amount of pain and suffering they have put family members and loved ones through has created so much pain and full of shame that they can no longer live with themselves. The lies, the drugs, the lies you told to get the drugs and just overall chaos and the path of wreckage you left in your wake. I woke up one day and I was sick and tired of the life i choose to live and drugs had made every decision for me and led me down a path of total destruction. I lost everything in one month. Home, job, car and my sanity. Woodlake is the best rehab and it's set up to help and guide u to succeed. There is one thing that you have to do when u leave Woodlake after your 28 day stay. That is to listen to what the counselors say and follow there suggetions. I've been to the Hope Center and Woodlake and Kevin James was running each place when my decisions led me to be a patient at those places. The first time I tried to beat the system and and do half of what they told me to do. I lost my sobriety within a year. 8 years later I'm checking in a Woodlake. I followed everything they told me to do. However, I choose a job that put me to work 7 days a week 90 hours a week and got lost and before I knew it I did my first Roxy. I failed a drug test and was bk out on the streets. I had only one place I knew I could go to that I could be accepted. That was my ex girlfriends house where my hards drugs had started. Now, for those people who say bad things about Kevin or Cory or Woodlake in general I say to u that you u you weren't ready and you got to be blame somebody and I bet your loaded as u discount what they are trying to accomplish as they try and show you how the program of AA does work. That place saved my life. It's designed to keep u sober and I loved it. They know exactly what they are doing. Cory a counselor at Woodlake helped me like no one has ever. Kevin I owe my life to that man. I wish someone would just come take me back there to help me get back to where I was before I relapsed. Woodlake will give u a second chance. They are hard on u for a reason. They have too!!!! I say to the people that are hooked on drugs and want to change give yourself a chance and go to inpatient and be honest with yourself. You will be glad you did!!!!

What a great place. I love it. They helped me so much. Staff is friendly and helpful, the education provided on addiction is as good as it gets. I'd like to thank the Ethel location for my wonderful stay. Thank y'all!

Great

kevin Games is a good person but his method and resentment list is very long anyone who may really need a second chance may not be given on due to his policy. But he was given his second chance when he was running… around baton rouge smoking crack. We as addicts are not perfect but if some wants a sober life give them a chance you where given one.

Great experience.

The grounds of the property were extremely beautiful. Also the whole staff was very helpful and professional.

Great company! Their service and staff are exceptional. I would absolutely refer friends and family to them.
