Who We Are

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

Trauma can come from one overwhelming event or from years of smaller wounds that add up. You don't need to have it all figured out or named before reaching out. Living here in Mandeville, watching the seasons change along the lakefront while your nervous system stays stuck in high alert, is its own kind of exhaustion. Counseling starts where you actually are, not where you think you should be.

At Integrative Recovery Therapies, we begin by building safety and understanding what your particular nervous system needs to settle. You set the pace for what you share and when. There's no rushing into the difficult material before you feel genuinely resourced enough to handle it. Over time, as trust grows and your body learns it can relax, deeper work becomes possible. The goal is helping you get back to your life, not endlessly excavating what's behind you.

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 Mandeville, Not a Protocol

Mandeville has weathered serious storms and flooding that leave lasting marks on families and neighborhoods. Trauma counseling helps people process these experiences and rebuild trust in their safety, which matters deeply in a community where so many have watched their homes and memories threatened by water. Having trained support nearby means people can heal without carrying the weight 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.

Taking that first step can feel overwhelming and relieving at once. That's completely normal. When you reach out, we simply talk about what's happening and what support might work for you right now - no pressure to dive deep before you're ready. We'll meet you where you actually are.
