About Genesis Recovery Services
Genesis Recovery Services is a mental health and substance use disorder treatment facility sitting on the edge of Lake Superior in Duluth, Minnesota. They offer in-person and telehealth services as well as specialized care for those with a dual diagnosis and those undergoing medication assisted treatment (MAT).
This location works with many insurance plans including Medicare and Medicaid. You may also be eligible to receive financial support from your local Health and Human Services Office.
Small Group Sizes for Personal Recovery
Individual and group therapy can both play roles in your recovery plan. Something that stands out about this facility is they maintain small group sizes. This can make group treatment more accommodating for those who are socially averse.
It also means each person in attendance will get more time and individualized attention. For some, the fear of getting lost in a crowd puts them off of group counseling or therapy. That isn’t a problem here.
Specialty Groups
In addition to addiction and behavioral health support and treatment groups, you’ll find this location offers special groups outside of treatment. These include a recovery group, a relapse prevention group and a group specifically for women recovering from substance use disorder. These in-person groups can be a great way to augment your treatment for greater personalization.
Also of note is a “families in recovery” group. This group is open to parents with a diagnostic assessment and is a place where those in recovery can sharpen their parenting skills and get new insights from other parents in their position.
Transportation Isn’t An Issue
Duluth is known for many things, including its industrial marvels and scenic views of the Great Lakes. What you may not know is that this city has an abundance of accessible public transport, making it easy to get to and from this treatment facility.
The Duluth Transit Authority operates multiple bus routes throughout the city and neighboring areas. This includes a bus stop that’s just a few minutes away from the facility. If you’re looking for another option, you’ll find taxis available, too.

Accepted Insurance
Other Forms of Payment
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Outpatient 
Intensive Outpatient Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug addiction is defined as an inability to stop using drugs even though it causes negative consequences in your life. Drug rehab in Minnesota provides treatment for drug addiction in a variety of settings including inpatient treatment and outpatient treatment.
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
