Depression, Anxiety, and Mental Health Therapy in Lake Charles

Mental Health is Health

For crisis or mental health emergencies, please go to Lake Charles Memorial's Emergency Department located at 1701 Oak Park Blvd. Call 911 for emergencies or 988 for the national suicide prevention and mental health hotline.

Everyone has physical health - and everyone has mental health. Just as you should see a primary care doctor for treatment or wellness visits, make time for your wellness screenings, and prioritize healthy eating habits and activity. You should also pay attention when stress, depression or life changes begin to affect your everyday life.

At Lake Charles Memorial Hospital, we understand that mental health is just as important as physical health. Our dedicated team of professionals are here to provide compassionate care to help you navigate all of life's challenges.

If a physical injury or illness would not stop you from making an appointment to see your doctor, seeking assistance or treatment with mental health issues should not stop you, either.
