You've made it this far, maybe after months or years of carrying this alone. If you live or work along the bayou communities here in Houma, you know resilience runs deep. You don't need answers figured out before you call. You just need to reach out.
At Integrative Recovery Therapies, we treat addiction and mental health together, not as separate problems. You'll work with someone who sees the full picture of what's happening, who listens without judgment, and who knows that shame isn't part of healing. We're here to sit with you in what's real.
Many of the people who reach out to us have tried before. Maybe a program that didn't fit. Maybe a clinician who rushed through the room. Maybe a system that asked you to perform recovery rather than actually live it. We understand why that history makes it harder to try again.
Integrative Recovery Therapies was built around a simple idea: real change happens in relationship, not in spite of it. We treat addiction and mental health together, because that is how they actually live in a person. We pair compassion with accountability, because both matter. And we are intentionally a small, intimate practice, so that you are never just a number on a census report.
If we are the right fit, you can expect honesty, non-judgment, and real partnership. If we are not the right fit, we will tell you, and we will help connect you with someone who is.
Working in oil and gas means you're carrying stress that doesn't clock out when you do. When you're managing both the weight of that work and struggles with substance use or anxiety, treating them separately just doesn't cut it. Integrated care means your counselor and your doctor are talking to each other, understanding how your job pressures and your mental health feed into each other. That kind of real support matters for people in Houma who are giving a lot to keep this community running.
We are intentionally small. You will see the same clinician each week. Leadership stays directly involved in care. That is how trust gets rebuilt.
Most people arrive carrying both. We treat them as one integrated experience rather than handing you off between siloed providers.
Honest conversations, respectfully delivered. Skill-building alongside insight. Recovery defined as a life worth protecting, not just abstinence.
We accept Medicaid, Medicare, and select commercial insurance. Evening IOP groups Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday let you keep working and stay close to family.
One conversation is enough to start. We will listen first, and figure out fit together.
Schedule a Free ConsultationWhen you first reach out from Houma, we take time to simply listen. That first session isn't about forms or checking boxes—it's about getting to know you and letting you know us. There's no expectation to share everything at once. Together, we'll gently talk through what brought you here and what matters most to you, then build your goals from there, at a pace that feels right.
A real person, often one of the founders, responds to your inquiry. We talk briefly about what is going on and whether IRT is the right fit. If we are not, we help you find someone who is.
The first meeting is about getting to know each other. There is no pressure to disclose everything or commit to a plan. We listen first.
Goals are defined collaboratively. We talk about whether individual therapy, IOP, family work, or some combination makes sense for where you are.
Sessions blend skill-building with insight. We stay with you as things shift, including life transitions and the harder weeks.
We serve folks throughout Houma and the surrounding communities, including Terrebonne, Schriever, Chauvin, Gray, and Gibson. Whether you're in town or nearby, you can work with us through telehealth sessions from home, or come in person to our Metairie office if that works better for your schedule. We're here to make recovery accessible however suits your situation best.
Yes. We accept Medicaid, Medicare, and select commercial insurance plans. We will verify your benefits before your first session and explain what coverage looks like in plain language. If we are out of network for your plan, we will tell you up front and talk through options.
IOP groups meet Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings, 6 to 9 PM. Groups are intentionally small, usually around eight people. The work blends psychoeducation, skill-building, peer support, and accountability inside a trauma-informed structure. Evening hours are designed to let you stay engaged with work, family, and daily life while in treatment.
Yes, and we encourage it when clinically appropriate. Addiction and mental health concerns rarely sit inside one person alone. Family and couples sessions help repair communication, set healthier boundaries, and bring loved ones into the recovery process rather than leaving them on the outside of it.
If you're here and considering reaching out, that's enough. You don't need to have it figured out or feel entirely ready. A first conversation is simply a chance to see if we might be a good fit for each other. We'll start where you actually are right now, in Houma, and move forward from there.
