The Kite Clinic

What The Kite Clinic does

The Kite Clinic is a single-location behavioral health and recovery practice founded in 2022 in Lafayette, Louisiana, serving individual patients in the Acadiana region. The clinic treats addiction, mood disorders, treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, and ADHD, with two differentiated offerings anchoring its service mix: FDA-approved SPRAVATO (esketamine) nasal spray for treatment-resistant depression, and participation in the Louisiana State Opioid Response (LaSOR) Project, which delivers individualized opioid addiction treatment — including recovery support, Narcan kits, and treatment from LaSOR staff — at no extra cost to qualified patients. The clinic is licensed under Louisiana law and is not an emergency care provider.

The clinic operates from 1921 Dulles Dr., Lafayette, LA, with a small team (6 employees per the firmographic record) and standard business hours (Mon-Thurs 8:30-5:00, Fri 8:30-12:00, closed for lunch 12:00-1:00). Its go-to-market is purely direct-to-consumer: prospective patients reach the clinic by phone (337.579.5777), email ([email protected]), or a website contact form, with no evidence of paid advertising, referral networks, or content marketing programs. There is no mobile app, no patient portal mentioned, and the public web presence is a basic WordPress site (Astra theme on Bluehost).

The revenue model is fee-for-service behavioral health billing to insurance providers, accepting most major insurances including Medicaid. The LaSOR program adds a non-insurance revenue stream via state-funded opioid response contracts for qualified patients. No self-pay pricing, patient volume, or revenue figures are disclosed, and the clinic has no funding rounds, no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no M&A activity on record.

Direct peers

• Brightside Health: Brightside Health is a telehealth psychiatry provider treating depression, anxiety, and treatment-resistant depression through online medication management and therapy. Directly comparable to The Kite Clinic in addressing treatment-resistant depression as a specialty, but delivered through telehealth rather than an in-person SPRAVATO-certified clinic model.
• Two Chairs: Two Chairs operates an outpatient therapy practice network providing in-person and virtual psychotherapy for anxiety, depression, and related conditions under insurance and employer contracts. Comparable to The Kite Clinic in operating brick-and-mortar outpatient behavioral health practices that accept insurance, but focused exclusively on therapy rather than medication-based treatments like SPRAVATO.
• Talkiatry: Talkiatry is a national outpatient psychiatry practice staffed by board-certified psychiatrists providing medication management and treatment for depression, anxiety, ADHD, and other behavioral health conditions. Directly comparable to The Kite Clinic's outpatient psychiatry model with insurance-based billing, but operates across multiple states via telehealth and in-person visits.
• Cerebral: Cerebral is a national behavioral health platform providing online treatment for anxiety, depression, ADHD, and substance use disorders with insurance acceptance. Comparable to The Kite Clinic in the conditions treated and insurance-based model, though Cerebral's delivery is telehealth-first rather than a brick-and-mortar clinic.
• MindPath Health: MindPath Health is an outpatient behavioral health provider network offering in-person and telehealth psychiatric and therapeutic care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, and mood disorders across multiple U.S. states. Comparable to The Kite Clinic in delivering outpatient psychiatric and therapeutic services on an insurance-accepted basis, though MindPath serves a multi-state footprint rather than a single Louisiana parish.

Emerging players

• Charlie Health: Charlie Health provides intensive outpatient (IOP) and virtual mental health treatment programs for adolescents and young adults struggling with depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders. Comparable to The Kite Clinic in addressing complex behavioral health needs including mood and substance use disorders, but specializes in higher-acuity IOP programs rather than standard outpatient visits.
• Lyra Health: Lyra Health is a mental health benefits platform partnering with employers to provide therapy, coaching, and medication management for anxiety, depression, and family issues. Overlaps with The Kite Clinic in the underlying clinical services (therapy and psychiatry for mood and anxiety disorders), but differs in its employer-sponsored distribution model rather than direct-to-patient outpatient clinic delivery.

Broad incumbents

• Acadia Healthcare: Acadia Healthcare (NASDAQ: ACHC) operates a national network of behavioral health facilities including inpatient psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment centers, and outpatient clinics treating addiction, depression, and anxiety. Comparable to The Kite Clinic as an outpatient behavioral health services provider, but Acadia is a much larger incumbent with significant inpatient and residential scale alongside outpatient programs.
• Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation: Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is the largest nonprofit addiction treatment provider in the U.S., operating residential, outpatient, and sober living programs for opioid and other substance use disorders. Directly comparable to The Kite Clinic's opioid addiction treatment offering via LaSOR, but at much larger scale including inpatient detox and residential levels of care.
• LifeStance Health: LifeStance Health (NASDAQ: LFST) is one of the largest outpatient mental health platforms in the U.S., operating a network of in-person and virtual psychiatric and therapeutic care clinics. Comparable to The Kite Clinic in offering outpatient behavioral health treatment, but at vastly broader geographic scale with thousands of clinicians versus Kite's six-person team.
