Who We Are

You Are Not Broken, and You Don't Have to Carry This Alone

Trauma can come from one moment or from years of strain, and you don't need to name it to know it's affecting your life. Here in Harvey, where work and weather have tested so many households, what matters is that you're feeling stuck, reactive, or numb—and that's reason enough to reach out. There's no requirement to have it all figured out before you walk in. At Integrative Recovery Therapies, we start with your safety and your pace. You'll never be pushed to talk about things before you're ready, and you won't find yourself suddenly flooded with memories you didn't consent to. We build stability first, create real clarity about what's happening in your nervous system, and only move deeper when you genuinely feel resourced enough. Your healing doesn't have to look like anyone else's.

Signs Trauma Counseling Can Help

  • Intrusive memories, flashbacks, or nightmares
  • Hypervigilance and constant scanning for danger
  • Emotional numbness or feeling detached
  • Avoidance of people, places, or reminders
  • Difficulty trusting or staying present in relationships
  • Using substances to sleep, calm down, or stop thinking

Trauma Support Built Around Harvey, Not a Protocol

Harvey's residents carry deep memories of Hurricane Katrina and the storms that followed, losses that shaped entire families and neighborhoods. Trauma counseling matters here because healing isn't just personal—it's about helping people process what their community endured together, rebuild trust in safety, and move forward without carrying their pain alone.

Safety and Consent First

We move toward deeper processing only when you feel resourced enough, never before you're ready.

Treated Like Family

A small team by design. You'll never be passed around or treated like a number.

Never Shaming

Non-punitive, always. We don't use shame as a tool, and we're direct with care.

Insurance-Friendly Access

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