Real Connection. Practical Skills. A Path Forward.

Bogalusa's industrial heart has shaped this community for generations, and that kind of work leaves marks. Whether it's the weight of keeping things together for family, the strain of uncertainty, or just the everyday grind that feels heavier than it should, lots of people here carry pressures they don't talk about. Reaching out can feel like admitting something's broken, but it's really just being honest about what's real.

Integrative Recovery Therapies started in New Orleans with people who've been through their own hard things, and that foundation matters. Group therapy here isn't about sitting in a circle checking off a treatment plan. It's about showing up with others who understand without needing all the backstory, finding that you're not alone in ways that actually stick.

Care That Doesn't Disappear When the Work Gets Hard

Finding quality mental health care in Bogalusa often means driving far or waiting weeks for an appointment that fits your schedule. We get it. That's why we offer evening group therapy right here in your community, plus telehealth options so distance isn't a barrier. We accept Medicaid, keep groups small and intimate, and treat everyone without judgment. Your recovery deserves local support.

Intentionally Small Groups

Our IOP groups stabilize at around 8 participants. That's not an accident. Smaller groups create real accountability, genuine peer connection, and enough space for every voice to matter.

Evening Hours That Work for Your Life

Groups run Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 6–9 PM. You keep your job, your family commitments, and your daily life while doing real recovery work.

Lived Experience in the Room

Our co-founders include people who have walked their own recovery journeys. That shows up in how we listen, what we understand without explaining, and how we hold accountability without shame.

Medicaid, Medicare & Insurance Accepted

Quality care shouldn't require a private-pay budget. We accept Medicaid, Medicare, and select commercial plans, because access is part of equity.

Mental Health and Addiction, Together

We don't separate substance use from the anxiety, trauma, or depression underneath it. Whole-person care treats the full picture, not just the most visible symptom.

Telehealth Across Louisiana

Can't make it in person? Telehealth sessions are available for residents throughout Louisiana via HIPAA-compliant video. Same care, wherever you are.

"You don't have to have everything figured out to start."

A free 15-minute consultation. No pressure, no commitment. Just an honest conversation about whether we're a good fit.

What to Expect When You Reach Out

Getting started doesn't require you to have it all together. Here's what happens next.

Start the Conversation

Fill out our short intake form or call us directly. A real person, often one of our founders, will respond personally, usually within one business day.

Free Consultation Call

We'll talk honestly about what you're navigating, what you're looking for, and whether IRT is the right fit. No pressure. If we're not the right fit, we'll help you find who is.

First Session

The first meeting is about listening and relationship-building, not paperwork or protocols. You don't have to disclose everything. You just have to show up.

Collaborative Care Plan

Together we define goals, talk through group vs. individual options, and build a plan that fits your life, not a one-size-fits-all treatment template.

Questions About Group Therapy in Bogalusa

Yes, we serve clients near Bogalusa, including those in Pearl River, Covington, Mandeville, Abita Springs, and Slidell. With telehealth, geographic distance doesn't matter much for most of our services. If you're interested in in-person group sessions, those are based out of New Orleans, but we're happy to work with you remotely from anywhere in the area.

Our IOP groups meet Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings from 6 to 9 PM and typically include around 8 participants. Sessions blend psychoeducation, skills training (DBT, CBT, mindfulness-based approaches), and open peer dialogue in a structured but non-punitive environment. The goal isn't confession or compliance; it's genuine connection, practical skill-building, and honest accountability. Groups are intentionally small so that each person's voice gets space.

Yes. We accept Medicaid, Medicare, and select commercial insurance plans. This is a deliberate choice. Access to quality mental health and addiction care should not be limited to people who can afford private-pay rates. If you have questions about your specific coverage, please contact us and we'll work through it with you directly, without judgment and without sales pressure.

Many of the people who come to us have been dismissed, rushed, or made to feel like a number in a system that wasn't built for them. We hear that often, and we take it seriously. IRT was built specifically to be different: small, relationship-centered, trauma-informed, and honest about what we can and can't offer. If something doesn't feel right, you can say so. We will not abandon you, and we will not shame you for having doubts.

Recovery Is Possible. You Don't Have to Do This Alone.

We know reaching out is hard, especially if you've tried before or been let down. That's why we keep it simple: your first step with us is a free 15-minute conversation with no commitment. You can ask questions, say as much or as little as you want, and decide from there. Most people find it helps just to talk to someone who listens. We're here in Bogalusa whenever you're ready.

No commitment required. Medicaid and Medicare accepted. Telehealth available statewide.
