Haynes Academy

Access Health Louisiana (AHL) offers Behavioral Health services to students at Haynes Academy.  Haynes Academy is one of eleven schools where AHL offers health services in the Jefferson Parish School District.  Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) Bertrille Hookfin sees students on campus.  Telemedicine services are also available this year.  Her office is located on the second floor of the high school library. She offers individual and group therapy counseling sessions for stress and anger management, trauma, depression, anxiety, bullying, or even relationships. Parents can request that their child be seen by Ms. Hookfin by either calling the front office of Haynes Academy at (504) 561-3571.

All students must have a current consent and enrollment form on file to be seen at Haynes Academy for Behavioral Health services. Consent and enrollment forms are sent home at the beginning of the year; however, parents may sign their child up for services at any time during the school year. Forms may also be found on the right-hand side of this webpage.

Co-payments are waived for all students and faculty/staff enrolled at our SBHC.  Commercial insurances including Medicaid and Medicare are accepted. Students who are uninsured can also receive care with a consent and enrollment form on file with the health center.  Any medications prescribed for your child may be filled through the Access Health Louisiana Pharmacy and delivered to your home. We also work with nearby Walgreens and CVS pharmacies and can have most prescriptions filled at a discounted rate.

If you have an emergency outside of school hours, please call 9-1-1.

Access Health Louisiana operates 41 school-based health centers in twelve parishes. To learn more about our successful program, click here.
