Who We Are

You're Not a Label. You're a Person Who Deserves a Plan.

You're carrying more than substance use. You're managing fear about relapse, the weight of shame, grief over what's been lost, and the exhaustion of holding work, family, and recovery together. Hammond residents know what it means to balance competing demands, to keep moving forward even when the load feels too heavy. That's the reality we meet you in.

At Integrative Recovery Therapies, counseling means sitting with someone who sees you as a whole person, not a diagnosis. We address mental health and substance use together, grounded in what your actual days look like. Calm, direct, respectful. You're not a case file here. Your recovery matters, and it deserves care that reflects that.

  • Cravings, triggers, and relapse prevention
  • Co-occurring anxiety, depression, or trauma
  • Codependency and unstable relationship patterns

Why Clients Choose IRT

Recovery Support Built Around Hammond, Not a System

Hammond runs on Southeastern Louisiana University and North Oaks Health System, plus a steady flow of commuters using it as the retail and commercial hub between I-12 and I-55. That mix of shift work, student stress, and long commutes can quietly push people toward substances. Addiction counseling here means having support that understands the specific pull of your daily grind.

Human-First, Not a Case File

You are spoken to as a peer, not a problem. We do not use shame as a motivator.

Integrated Care

We address anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationships alongside use, because separating them misses what keeps the cycle going.

Direct but Not Harsh

Accountability without shame. Steady honesty paired with real compassion, in the same conversation.

Insurance-Friendly Access

Louisiana Medicaid, Medicare, and most major commercial plans accepted.

How It Works

Your First Steps in Addiction Counseling

Your first sessions are about understanding you - your life, relationships, and what's really going on, not just the substance use itself. You don't need to have everything figured out or feel completely ready. Goals can develop as we go. There's no pressure to arrive with all the answers.

01

Reach Out

A real member of our team, often one of our founders, responds personally to understand what's going on.

02

Clear, Respectful Assessment

We talk about use patterns, triggers, prior treatment, mental health, and what you want your life to look like.

03

Goals That Match Your Stage

Abstinence, harm reduction, or rebuilding stability after a setback, we're transparent about what we recommend and why.

04

Relapse Prevention, Ongoing

A practical plan for the urge and for the setback, plus reinforcement of what's already working.

Common Questions

Questions From Hammond Clients

Integrative Recovery Therapies serves Hammond and the surrounding area, including Ponchatoula, Covington, Mandeville, and Slidell. We offer addiction counseling both in person at our Metairie office and online through secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth, so you can get the help you need in whatever way works best for 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. 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.

You Don't Have to Do This Alone.

Uncertainty is where most people start, and it's completely okay. A first conversation with us is simply a chance to explore whether we're the right fit for your situation. If we're not, we'll say so honestly and point you toward resources that might serve you better. There's no pressure here, just a straightforward talk about what could help.
