Compassionate, whole-person counseling for individuals and families in Chalmette and the surrounding area. We treat addiction, trauma, and mental health together, not in separate silos.
If you're living in Chalmette and carrying the weight of addiction, anxiety, depression, or trauma, you're not alone—though it may feel that way. This community has weathered so much, from the industrial legacy along the Mississippi to the scars of Hurricane Katrina that still mark our landscape. When you're struggling, it can feel like no one understands the particular heaviness you carry in a place like this.
Integrative Recovery Therapies is here to help. We offer telehealth services to Chalmette residents because we believe healing shouldn't require you to travel far from home. We treat the whole person—addressing mental health and substance use together, with real compassion and without judgment. Your story matters, and recovery is possible.
Chalmette residents face unique pressures, from the petrochemical industry's demands on families to the ongoing recovery from Hurricane Katrina's legacy. Mental health and addiction support matters here because real people carry real weight—economic uncertainty, trauma, and stress that compounds over time. Compassionate, whole-person care acknowledges these lived experiences and helps individuals and families heal, rebuild, and thrive in their community.
No labels, no lecturing. Every client is treated with dignity, like a member of our own family.

Yes. Integrative Recovery Therapies accepts both Medicaid and Medicare, as well as select commercial insurance plans and private pay options. We believe quality mental health and addiction care should be accessible regardless of income or insurance status.

Our IOP runs Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings from 6 to 9 PM, specifically so you can maintain your work and family commitments. Groups typically include around eight participants and focus on psychoeducation, skills training, peer support, and relapse prevention. IOP is a strong fit for people who need more structure than weekly therapy provides but do not require residential care. If you are unsure whether IOP is the right level of care, we will assess that together honestly during your intake conversation.
That is one of the most honest and important questions someone can ask. Many people have been through systems that treated them as a diagnosis rather than a whole person, or that separated their mental health from their addiction, or that relied on shame and compliance rather than genuine connection. At IRT, we build trust before technique. Sessions are never rushed or checklist-driven. We treat addiction and mental health together, address the underlying emotional and relational experiences, and stay with you even when the process is not linear. If we are not the right fit after all, we will say so honestly and help you find someone who is.
If you've been thinking about reaching out, we're here in Chalmette, ready to listen with honesty and without judgment, whenever you're ready to talk.
