Coming home after incarceration changes more than your schedule. For Westwego adults, this is steady, trauma-informed support for the real work of rebuilding trust, routine, and stability.
You are not defined by your record here. We meet you where you are, without shame as a starting point.
We keep the work structured, clear, and human, so a high-stakes transition doesn't feel like guesswork.
When housing, employment, or legal complexity stack up, we can connect you with Care Coordination.
Louisiana Medicaid, Medicare, and most major commercial plans accepted.
A real person, not a call center, will respond to your inquiry.
When you call from Westwego, your first session is unhurried. We listen to what has worked for you before, what hasn't, and what kind of help feels manageable right now. There is no script we follow. Instead, we start where you are, building a plan that fits your actual life and your real capacity, not some generic outline.
We ask what you're facing right now, what has helped before, and what you want to be different.
We recommend a plan built around your actual schedule and goals, not a one-size-fits-all program.
Communication, boundary setting, and emotional regulation skills for the pressure of housing, work, and court requirements.
When it's needed, we connect you with Family Therapy or Care Coordination so you're not carrying everything alone.
Integrative Recovery Therapies serves adults throughout Westwego and the surrounding area, including Marrero, Waggaman, and Estelle. We offer re-entry counseling both in-person at our Metairie office and online through secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth, so you can choose what works best for your schedule and needs. Whatever path you choose, we're here to support your recovery with practical, respectful care.
No. Re-entry counseling supports your emotional regulation, communication, and decision-making, but it does not replace legal advice or case management. When it's helpful, we can connect you with Care Coordination so you are not carrying everything alone.
No. We work with adults at any point in the re-entry process, whether that's shortly after release, months in, or well after formal supervision has ended.
Sometimes, yes. Families change while someone is incarcerated, and roles shift. When it fits, we may recommend adding Family Therapy alongside re-entry counseling to support healthier patterns at home.
If you are in immediate danger or need urgent support, call 988 or go to the nearest emergency room.
