Compass Health traces its beginnings to 1998, when Mark Cullen founded the organization and began providing mental health services through partnerships with rural Southwest Louisiana healthcare providers. That work grew into a community mental health center and a mental health rehab agency serving residents of Lafayette, Vermilion, Iberia, and Acadia Parishes, followed by partnerships with community hospitals and the development of a regional behavioral health system. The organization's stated mission is to improve lives by passionately serving others, with a vision of maximizing access to quality care. Its values are expressed as integrity, dynamic, expertise, collaboration, innovation, diligence, and excellence. The Houma facility is one of several distinct-part psychiatric units the organization has developed, alongside locations such as the Senior Care Center at Opelousas General Health System and Compass Behavioral Center of Kinder.

The center sits on West Park Avenue in Houma, a short distance from Bayou Terrebonne and about a quarter mile from West Park Avenue's main road corridor. Evergreen Junior High School is roughly half a mile away, and Southland Strip is about 0.3 miles from the location.

The center's medical staff includes psychiatrists, psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners, a licensed clinical social worker, advanced practice registered nurses, and a physician assistant.
