Alcoholism

Alcoholism is a chronic, progressive condition involving the excessive and compulsive consumption of alcohol. This overconsumption leads to physical dependence and alcohol addiction. Alcohol rehab in Minnesota offers resources to help individuals recover from alcoholism and maintain a sober lifestyle. Treatment typically involves a three-step process that begins with supervised detox, followed by behavioral-based rehab, then continues with sobriety maintenance.

Drug Addiction

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.

Dual Diagnosis

Dual-diagnosis addiction treatment in Minnesota emphasizes integrated care for individuals with co-occurring substance use disorders and mental health conditions. Their specialized programs offer outpatient, inpatient, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient levels of care. Therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy, or dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based therapy, and experiential therapy help clinical experts to treat both disorders and promote mental health and well-being. Additional services like medically assisted detox, 12-Step recovery, and aftercare support may be available to further support you in sustaining your recovery.

Mental Health and Substance Abuse

If you’re in Minnesota and looking for mental health and substance abuse treatment, you may find the most effective treatment is in a dual-diagnosis program. Specialists treat both mental health conditions at the same time through individual counseling, group therapy, behavioral therapies, and holistic approaches such as mindfulness practices and recreational activities. You’ll also learn vital skills to reduce stress, increase coping skills, and develop a supportive recovery community, setting you up for long-term recovery.

Opioid Addiction

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.

Outpatient

Outpatient rehabs typically provide a full continuum of care both for clients in early recovery and for those who are well advanced in their recovery journey. Their levels of care typically include partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), sober living/halfway housing, and standard outpatient programming. Many outpatient facilities offer evening, night, and weekend services, including addiction counseling and recovery-focused life skills training, to accommodate clients’ work and family schedules.

Medically Assisted Detox

Withdrawal from alcohol and drugs can be uncomfortable - even dangerous - without the proper medical supervision. The safest way to remove addictive substances from your body is with a medically supervised detox where a team of on-site medical professionals can monitor your health and progress 24/7, then administer medications (like Suboxone or Vivitrol) if necessary to mitigate symptoms of withdrawal.

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) provide one of the highest levels of care available in an outpatient setting and are designed for clients who require robust support. Many intensive outpatient rehabs offer personalized treatment plans and a variety of services, including individual, group, and family counseling, recovery-focused life skills training, holistic therapies, and medication assisted treatment (MAT). Clients typically receive between nine and 20 hours of care weekly.

Group Therapy

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

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.
