About Lafayette Campus B VA Clinic

The Lafayette Campus B VA Clinic is a community-focused outpatient clinic serving veterans in Lafayette and across greater Lafayette Parish, Louisiana. It’s located on Saint Julien Avenue in Lafayette, just two miles west of the Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist and the historic Alexandre Mouton House. The clinic specializes in behavioral healthcare such as substance use recovery and mental health care with dedicated support for veterans facing PTSD and military sexual trauma.

These services are funded via Medicaid, Medicare and Tricare which helps keep costs low and care accessible for all veterans. You may even benefit from financial aid if you meet the eligibility criteria.

I appreciate that they also offer transportation support and travel benefits for round-trip transport from your home to the clinic. This benefit may be in the form of mileage reimbursement for eligible veterans and even covers special modes of transportation.

Outpatient Support For Substance-Dependent Veterans

The clinic provides substance use assessments, personalized care planning, and treatment support for veterans facing substance use challenges. Veterans whose assessed needs call for more intensive and structured support are connected to facilities within the broader VA Alexandria Health Care System that provide inpatient residential services. Outpatient services at this clinic focus on equipping you with the tools to overcome unhealthy alcohol use or life-threatening drug dependency.

Medications for Opioid or Alcohol Addiction

Skilled and compassionate professionals guide care in a supportive and nonjudgmental setting that fosters healing and personal growth. They may employ proven methods like cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing to help you break free from destructive patterns, build resilience and regain control over your life.

If you’re struggling with opioid dependency, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) will form part of your personalized recovery plan to help you manage withdrawal symptoms and minimize relapse risk. I appreciate how the VA integrates medication and therapy seamlessly.

You’ll also receive adequate psychiatric support including evaluation and medication management to address underlying or co-occurring mental health challenges. A behavioral health social worker will help you navigate personal needs like housing, employment and primary medical support through linkage to community services as you move forward. This ensures you have the support and resources needed to build stability and maintain your recovery journey.
