Steady, respectful support for Chalmette adults carrying more than the substance itself, fear about relapse, shame about what has happened, or the exhaustion of keeping work, family, and recovery afloat at once.
You are spoken to as a peer, not a problem. We do not use shame as a motivator.
We address anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationships alongside use, because separating them misses what keeps the cycle going.
Accountability without shame. Steady honesty paired with real compassion, in the same conversation.
Louisiana Medicaid, Medicare, and most major commercial plans accepted.
A real person, not a call center, will respond to your inquiry.
Your first few sessions aren't about having all the answers. A counselor will listen to your whole story - not just substance use, but what's happening in your life, your relationships, your health. You can set goals whenever you're ready, even if you don't feel completely certain yet. There's no rush to figure everything out before you begin.
A real member of our team, often one of our founders, responds personally to understand what's going on.
We talk about use patterns, triggers, prior treatment, mental health, and what you want your life to look like.
Abstinence, harm reduction, or rebuilding stability after a setback, we're transparent about what we recommend and why.
A practical plan for the urge and for the setback, plus reinforcement of what's already working.
Integrative Recovery Therapies serves clients throughout Chalmette, LA and the surrounding communities including Arabi, Meraux, Violet, and the greater New Orleans area. Whether you prefer to meet with a counselor in person at our Metairie office or work with us online through secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth, we offer addiction counseling that fits your life. We understand that everyone's situation is different, so we make both options available to help you get the support you need.
Yes. We work with Louisiana Medicaid, Medicare, and most major commercial insurance plans. Our team will verify your specific benefits before your first session, and we're transparent about costs from the start.
No. Many clients feel split, part of them wants relief and part of them fears what recovery will require. We use Motivational Interviewing to explore that ambivalence without pressure or power struggles, and build honest momentum from wherever you're starting.
We currently are unable to offer support for schizophrenia and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. For most co-occurring concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and mood disorders alongside substance use, we treat them together.
