About Ochsner LSU Health Shreveport – Academic Medical Center

Ochsner LSU Health Shreveport Academic Medical Center offers psychiatric and behavioral health services that include addiction treatment through its Psychiatry and Behavioral Health department in Shreveport, Louisiana.

I like their comprehensive array of services. The program provides intensive outpatient treatment for substance use disorders, inpatient psychiatric care and dual diagnosis services for cooccurring mental health conditions.

Advanced Addiction Care

As a regional leader serving more than 15,000 patients annually and home to the Louisiana Addiction Research Center, the facility combines clinical expertise with cutting edge addiction research to deliver innovative and evidence based care.

Flexible Dual Diagnosis Care

Ochsner LSU Health Shreveport specializes in treating patients with cooccurring mental health and substance use disorders. The Psychiatric Crisis Unit and outpatient clinics work closely with regional addiction resources to provide coordinated care for those facing both conditions simultaneously.

Intensive outpatient treatment allows patients to receive structured substance use disorder care while maintaining work, school or family responsibilities. The academic medical center model integrates psychiatry faculty from LSU School of Medicine, bringing research informed approaches directly into patient care.

Levels of Care

Inpatient Rehab

Residential or inpatient rehab in Louisiana is the most intensive level of care. It involves living at the rehab facility and receiving 24/7 supervised care. Treatment interventions usually include individual and group therapy, nutritional counseling, experiential therapies, and medication.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

When you have a mental health disorder, addiction treatment must look different than standard rehab. The program must address both your mental health and substance abuse disorders. Louisiana dual diagnosis treatment is designed to do just that.
