Compassionate, whole-person counseling for individuals and families in Lake Charles and the surrounding area. We treat addiction, trauma, and mental health together, not in separate silos.
If you're struggling with addiction, anxiety, depression, or trauma in Lake Charles, you know how heavy it all feels. Whether you live near the refineries along the Calcasieu River or anywhere else in our community, the weight of these struggles can feel isolating and hopeless. You might be carrying pain from years back, or facing something new that's knocked you sideways. That weight is real, and you don't have to carry it alone.
Integrative Recovery Therapies is here for Lake Charles residents who are ready to heal. We offer telehealth counseling that treats your whole self, addressing mental health and substance use together, without shame or judgment. We believe that recovery is possible, and we've seen it happen for real people facing real struggles just like yours.
Lake Charles has weathered significant economic shifts as the oil and petrochemical industries evolve, creating real stress for families and workers seeking stability. When financial uncertainty combines with the lingering effects of hurricanes and community disruption, mental health challenges and substance use often follow. People here deserve support that understands their specific struggles, from job loss to trauma recovery. Compassionate, whole-person care acknowledges these realities and meets Lake Charles residents where they actually are.
No labels, no lecturing. Every client is treated with dignity, like a member of our own family.
Mental health and addiction are treated together, not in separate silos. Because they are rarely separate.

Yes. Integrative Recovery Therapies accepts both Medicaid and Medicare, as well as select commercial insurance plans and private pay options. We believe quality mental health and addiction care should be accessible regardless of income or insurance status. Please call us at (504) 229-2244 to confirm your specific plan before your first appointment.
Our IOP runs Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings from 6 to 9 PM, specifically so you can maintain your work and family commitments. Groups typically include around eight participants and focus on psychoeducation, skills training, peer support, and relapse prevention. IOP is a strong fit for people who need more structure than weekly therapy provides but do not require residential care. If you are unsure whether IOP is the right level of care, we will assess that together honestly during your intake conversation.
That is one of the most honest and important questions someone can ask. Many people have been through systems that treated them as a diagnosis rather than a whole person, or that separated their mental health from their addiction, or that relied on shame and compliance rather than genuine connection. At IRT, we build trust before technique. Sessions are never rushed or checklist-driven. We treat addiction and mental health together, address the underlying emotional and relational experiences, and stay with you even when the process is not linear. If we are not the right fit after all, we will say so honestly and help you find someone who is.
If you've been carrying this alone, reach out to us here in Lake Charles. You'll find honesty, acceptance, and someone who truly wants to help you find your way forward.
