Addiction Treatment Services in Minneapolis, Minnesota

Chemical use assessments, DUI assessments, and addiction counseling: the services that get adults across the Twin Cities into the right outpatient care.

Northwoods Haven Recovery provides outpatient addiction treatment services for adults across Minneapolis and the greater Twin Cities from our center in Hopkins, Minnesota. Everything begins with a chemical use assessment, which turns a worry into a diagnosis and a level of care. Around it sit DUI and court-ordered assessments and individual addiction counseling with your own licensed alcohol and drug counselor.

Which addiction treatment service do you need?

If you or someone you love may have a problem with alcohol or drugs, start with a chemical use assessment. It is an hour with a licensed counselor that establishes whether a substance use disorder is present, how severe it is, and which level of care fits. If a court, probation officer, or licensing office has asked you for an evaluation after a DWI, a DUI assessment is the same clinical work written up for that purpose.

And if you are already in treatment, or stepping down from it, addiction counseling is the individual work with your own counselor that runs through both of our outpatient programs.

Whatever the service, the answer is honest. If what you need is detox, residential care, or a mental health program, we say so and help you find it. Every caller leaves with resources.

Therapies

Evidence-based therapies we use, taught as options

Seven approaches, one plan built with you. Your counselor teaches you what each one does and you decide what belongs in your recovery lifestyle.

Catch the thought that comes before the drink or the drug, test it, and practice a different move before Friday.

Skills for intense emotion, urges, and relationships: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness.

Make room for the craving or the feeling without acting on it, and build a life around what you value.

Find your own reasons to change, at your own pace. Includes motivational enhancement therapy, the structured short form.

The same people each session, so accountability is real. Where most of the traction in outpatient treatment comes from.

Every group and session run on predictability, choice, and safety, because most people carry something older than the substance.

Mental health, relationships, work, and purpose treated as one picture, with a recovery lifestyle you define.

You do not choose a therapy from a menu. Your counselor teaches you all of them as options and the plan uses what works for you.

Chemical use assessments, DUI and court-ordered assessments, and individual addiction counseling. These sit around our two outpatient levels of care, the Intensive Outpatient Program and the Relapse Prevention Program.

A chemical use assessment, for almost everyone. It establishes whether a substance use disorder is present, how severe it is, and which level of care fits. If you need an evaluation for court or licensing after a DWI, ask for a DUI assessment.
