Addiction Treatment Programs

Dual Diagnosis

Along with traditional evidence-based substance use treatment, clients may receive mental health counseling, medication, peer support, and other tools to help them manage their mental health.

Levels of Care

1
Outpatient Rehab
Outpatient treatment in Minnesota can provide a great way to practice and reinforce new habits formed in residential rehab programs. Outpatient treatment includes multiple approach, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and holistic therapy options.
2
Partial Hospitalization Program
Partial hospitalization programs (PHPs) in Minnesota are led by professionals who provide intensive daily treatment, but you live at home or in a sober living facility outside the sessions. Building a new life for yourself is challenging, and the focused treatment you receive during a PHP can help you lay that foundation.

Therapies

Individual Therapy
