About St James Behavioral Health Hsp – Gonzales
Located in Gonzales, Louisiana, is the St James Behavioral Health Hospital. Situated on the outskirts of town, this is a facility that provides inpatient and outpatient care to men and women who are struggling with their mental health or have a co-occurring substance use disorder.

You can expect the team here to apply evidence based therapies to help you work through your behavioral health struggles. They are also equipped to handle complex mental health struggles such as schizophrenia, personality disorders and mood disorders. Many people who complete their inpatient treatment here will go on to transition to their intensive or general outpatient program offered in the same building.
Many past clients say there was a very rigid structure here. For individuals who had severe behavioral health struggles, this type of rigidity is helpful; however, others felt it was restricting. For example, to keep inpatient program participants on schedule and focused on treatment, visiting hours with loved ones are limited to a couple of hours on the weekends.
