Compassionate, whole-person counseling for individuals and families in Ruston and the surrounding area. We treat addiction, trauma, and mental health together, not in separate silos.
When addiction, anxiety, depression, or trauma takes hold, it can feel like you're carrying something no one else understands. In Ruston, where so many work hard and show up for their families and communities, that struggle can feel even more isolating. You deserve support that meets you where you are, without judgment.
Integrative Recovery Therapies serves Ruston residents through telehealth, bringing real help to your home. We treat the whole person, addressing both mental health and substance use together because we know they're connected. Change is possible, and you don't have to do this alone.
Ruston's economy relies heavily on agriculture and small business, work that can be physically demanding and financially unpredictable. When economic stress combines with isolation or family strain, mental health struggles and substance use often follow quietly. People here deserve support that understands their real lives—the pressures they face, the community they're part of, and their capacity to heal when given genuine care and practical resources.
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.
We believe in honesty. We will challenge you respectfully, and we will stay with you when the work is hard.

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 thinking about reaching out, we're here in Ruston, ready to listen with honesty and care, without any judgment about where you are right now.
