Who We Are

You Deserve to Feel Grounded Again

You don't need a diagnosis to reach out. You don't need a crisis. Living near the river in Chalmette, many people work hard, show up for their families, and still feel worn down by the weight of it all. That exhaustion, that sense of being stuck in reactive patterns, is reason enough to talk with someone who understands.

Counseling with us is a structured conversation with a licensed clinician about what's actually happening in your life and how you respond to it. We focus on emotional regulation and real, sustainable change, never as a lecture or a label. You're not a diagnosis to us. You're someone ready to move differently through your days.

Who This Can Support

  • Persistent anxiety, panic, or constant worry
  • Depression, low motivation, or feeling emotionally flat
  • Trauma responses and hypervigilance
  • Emotional swings and difficulty calming down
  • Relationship strain and repeated conflict cycles
  • Stress, burnout, and executive functioning struggles

Common Questions

Questions From Chalmette Clients

Integrative Recovery Therapies proudly serves clients throughout Chalmette and the surrounding communities, including Arabi, Meraux, Violet, Poydras, and Metairie. Whether you prefer meeting in person at our Metairie office or connecting online, we've got you covered with secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth sessions that fit your schedule and comfort level.

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. Some people come in with a clear diagnosis already, and others start because they feel stuck, reactive, exhausted, or disconnected. Both are valid reasons to reach out, and we'll work with wherever you're starting from.

We currently are unable to offer support for schizophrenia and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. For most other concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, and ADHD-related struggles, we treat them alongside anything else going on.

You Don't Have to Carry This Alone.

Taking the first step can feel both relieving and unsettling - that's completely normal. Your initial conversation is simply about whether we're the right fit for you. You don't need a crisis or the perfect words to reach out. We'll start where you actually are, not where you think you should be.
