About

About ARC Counseling Centers

The Louisa Counseling Center is Addiction Recovery Care (ARC)’s outpatient site for Lawrence County, located at 31 Torchlight Road. Within the broader ARC continuum — which includes the Bellefonte Psychiatric Hospital and Detox Unit, multiple residential sites, and ARC Anywhere telehealth — the Louisa center serves as the local point of entry for adults and young adults who can engage in treatment while remaining at home, employed, and connected to family.

Clinically, the Louisa Counseling Center delivers ARC’s four-pillar model: evidence-based clinical care, medical services, a spiritual emphasis grounded in 12-step participation and chaplaincy, and vocational programming through the Crisis to Career pathway. Medication-assisted treatment is available for clients whose recovery is supported by buprenorphine, naltrexone, or other addiction pharmacotherapy. Individual and group counseling form the day-to-day rhythm of outpatient care, with peer support specialists providing the lived-experience connection that ARC has built its reputation around.

The Louisa site is CARF accredited as part of ARC’s network-wide accreditation, and it accepts Kentucky Medicaid, Ohio Medicaid, Aetna, Anthem, United Healthcare Community Plan, and WellCare. Medical leadership across the rural Kentucky sites includes Chris Jude, DO, Associate Medical Director for Rural Health, and Arun Kaithi, MD, Medical Director for the Bellefonte Hospital and Recovery Center. Their roles ensure that even rural outpatient sites like Louisa benefit from physician oversight comparable to ARC’s larger campuses.

Louisa residents who need stepped-up care can access ARC’s residential centers, medical detox at Bellefonte, or specialty programs like Karen’s Place maternity treatment without changing organizations. With a 4.2-star Google rating across nearly 20 reviews, the Louisa Counseling Center has built community trust as a meaningful local resource in a region where access to evidence-based addiction treatment is otherwise limited. Admissions, including Casey’s Law civil-commitment referrals, can be initiated through the local number (606) 328-1714 or ARC’s central admissions line.

Medical Detox Services with Physician Oversight

ARC Counseling Centers provides medically supervised detox under the direction of Dr. Chris Jude, DO, Medical Director for Rural Health, and Dr. Arun Kaithi, MD, Medical Director at Bellefonte Hospital & Recovery Center. This dual physician oversight ensures comprehensive medical management during alcohol detox, opioid detox, and withdrawal from other substances.

The outpatient detox model allows patients to receive professional withdrawal management while maintaining their work schedules and family obligations. Medical staff monitor vital signs, manage withdrawal symptoms, and adjust treatment protocols based on individual patient responses throughout the detoxification process.

Specialized Detox Programs for Underserved Populations

The facility operates dedicated detox programs for veterans and LGBTQ+ individuals, addressing the specific medical and psychological needs these populations face during withdrawal. Veterans often require specialized approaches due to trauma-related complications, while LGBTQ+ patients benefit from culturally competent care during the vulnerable detox period.

These population-specific programs incorporate trauma-informed care principles into standard detox protocols, ensuring that withdrawal management addresses not just physical symptoms but also underlying factors that may complicate the detoxification process.

Insurance Coverage and Accessibility

ARC Counseling Centers accepts Kentucky Medicaid, Ohio Medicaid, Aetna, Anthem, United Healthcare Community Plan, and WellCare, making medical detox accessible to residents throughout eastern Kentucky and southern Ohio. The facility's location in Louisa provides detox services to rural communities where specialized withdrawal management options are often limited.

Insurance verification staff work directly with patients to confirm detox coverage and coordinate admission processes, reducing barriers for individuals who need immediate medical supervision during withdrawal from alcohol, opioids, or other substances.
