About South Central Human Service Center
The South Central Human Service Center is part of North Dakota Health and Human Services. As one of eight behavioral health facilities, this location is for the south central region of the state. This main location is in Jamestown, North Dakota, but they also have a satellite location in Valley City.
Outpatient Treatment for Addiction and Mental Health
This is a state funded behavioral health clinic that can help with issues like drug and alcohol addiction as well as mental health. They have outpatient treatment through therapy and addiction counseling. They have psychiatric care, too, in case you have a dual diagnosis of both substance use disorder and a mental health condition.
Accessible and Flexible Care When You Need It
This clinic is an excellent way to get access to care especially if you don’t have the funds for private rehab. They do walk-in assessments so you can go there at any time during their open hours and they’ll assess your addiction to come up with a treatment plan. They can also direct you to other treatment centers if you need a level of care they don’t offer like residential rehab or medical detox. Plus they have social work and case management services so they can help you get other resources that will benefit your recovery, too, like stable housing and medical care.
I think what’s most beneficial about this treatment center is its financial accessibility. You can pay for treatment using a sliding fee scale that’s based on your income. Plus they don’t turn away anyone for an inability to pay.
Client Feedback
Clients have a lot of positive things to say about this clinic. While some report issues with scheduling, many say that their therapists are excellent and knowledgeable and that the reception staff is kind and helpful.

Horrible mental health services. After getting diagnosed from SE I went to college and ended up with a job that I was asked to network with them. The person I went to meet with for WORK (in human services by the way) brought me into his office and retrieved my file from when I was getting “mental health care” and proceeded to talk to me as a patient not a professional for the job I was there for. They are the most mentally ill people I have ever met! I would NEVER EVER send even my worst enemy to this facility for any kind of mental health support.
1000% worthless and their side kicks in Valley City are 100,000 times worse. Unless you are suffering from addiction and so hard up you have no other option there is no reason to bother with anyone of the delusional staff at these places. Lazy, self absorbed, some delusional with worse mental health issues than the people asking for help. Enter with caution, nothing more than a waste of tax payers money with welfare check staff members just wanting a paycheck without working for it.
Some of the staff are excellent but I ended up with a warrant because staff did not turn an assessment that I did into the courts that I informed them they needed to go to. And when I was staying at cru I had a problem with a staff member and instead of listening to me they took the staffs word and trew me out on the street. As a result of the warrant I ended up losing everything I had been collecting the last three years. The antique desks the brand new couch and kitchen table I had gotten for my fiancee. All they razors and hygentle stuff also the multiple garbage bags of brand new and slightly used cloths that I had acquired the name of the individual who didi not send the assessment in correctly was Josh Wolfe. My rights were completely violated so that I would lose everything I owned which included my computers with personal information also my recieved 60 in tv all my business and personal information. And this is not the first time they violated my rights they completely stopped my meds including the max dose of lithium carbonate which could have caused major seizures and killed me someone needs to audit this place and make sure they are doing their job correctly and are not being influenced by the process pice department.

Accepted Insurance
Other Forms of Payment
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.
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.
Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.
Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.
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.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.
Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).
Clients receiving treatment in an intensive outpatient program (IOP) often require higher-level support than those in standard outpatient (OP) programs. They are usually in early recovery or are experiencing crisis situations that increase their relapse risk. Intensive outpatient treatment generally involves nine to 20 hours of treatment weekly and may include a combination of addiction counseling, recovery education, medication assisted treatment (MAT), and holistic therapies, such as meditation, acupuncture, and massage.
In a partial hospitalization program (PHP), you'll experience intensive rehab with the ability to return home each day. PHP treatment is recommended for those with moderate to severe addictions that don't require 24/7 care. A partial hospitalization program serves as an alternative to inpatient hospitalization or as a step-down option. Throughout the week, you'll attend meetings for 4-8 hours each day, up to 3-5 days a week, for an average of 90 days. Medication management, evidence-based therapies, and relapse prevention are typical components of PHP treatment.
Medically assisted detox involves weaning your body off alcohol and drugs in a medically supervised environment. This is often the first step in the addiction recovery process. Abruptly stopping intake of alcohol and some drugs (like benzodiazepines and opioids) can cause uncomfortable side effects. In severe cases, withdrawal symptoms can even be dangerous. To minimize risks and discomfort, a team of medical professionals will monitor you 24/7, and may provide medications if necessary to ease potential withdrawal symptoms.
Recovery models based on 12 step programming combine intensive peer support with an emphasis on personal growth. Participants are expected to select a peer sponsor to mentor them through the recovery journey. 12 step recovery strategies are rooted in spiritual principles to promote self-compassion, acceptance, and accountability. Regular attendance at group meetings, which are free, anonymous, and open to the public, is expected. Specialized formats, including programs for seniors, youth, and families, are available in most communities.
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.
The goal of drug rehab in North Dakota is to help individuals overcome addiction. These programs provide treatment for both mind and body and teach participants how to live healthy, productive lives without drug abuse.
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.
A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.
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.
In North Dakota, individuals seeking substance abuse treatment can typically expect various programs and levels of care, including inpatient rehab, intensive outpatient, detox, and partial hospitalization. Typically, these programs utilize evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based interventions. You'll also learn valuable coping skills, relapse prevention strategies, and tools to repair your relationships — all critical skills for long-term recovery.
Programs
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
Serving in the military is both mentally and physically challenging, and can result in trauma that persists even after combat ends. Military programs are tailored to the specific and often complex needs of active duty personnel, veterans, and military families. Clients often access these programs through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).
Teen programs are designed to address the unique pressures teens face, pressures that can drive them to experiment with dangerous, addictive substances. They need programs that meet them exactly where they are and give them tools for long-term recovery. Therapy can help teenagers understand and work through underlying issues so they can reclaim the life ahead of them.
Clinical Services
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.
Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.
Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.
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.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.
Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.
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.
Motivational interviewing helps you find internal motivation to change. If you're feeling insecure about your ability to change or ambivalent about the need for change, this method can help you explore your options and motivations.
