Who We Are

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

Trauma lives in your nervous system whether it came from one overwhelming moment or years of strain, and it doesn't need a name for you to feel its weight. Here in Terrytown, where the industrial rhythms and close-knit communities shape daily life, you might find yourself bracing against ordinary moments or feeling distant from people around you. Reaching out for support doesn't mean you have to catalog what happened or make sense of it all at once. It means deciding you're tired of your own system working against you.

At Integrative Recovery Therapies, we start by building safety and clarity around what you actually need right now. You set the pace. We never push you to talk about specifics before you're ready, and we spend time helping you feel resourced, grounded, and genuinely in control of the process. Deeper work happens only when you're prepared for it, not before. Our job is to help your nervous system learn it can relax again.

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 Terrytown, Not a Protocol

Terrytown sits in the shadow of Hurricane Katrina's legacy, and many families here still carry the weight of that upheaval and loss. Trauma counseling matters because healing isn't something you do alone, and it's not something that follows a timeline. A counselor who understands what your community endured can help you make sense of old wounds while you're building something solid again.

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.
