Not sure where you fit?

Tell us what is going on and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right fit.

Addiction is a disease, never a moral failing

Substance use disorder is a medical condition, and like most medical conditions it exists on a spectrum from mild to severe. Nobody has to reach a crisis point to qualify for treatment, and holding down a job or a family does not mean the problem is not real yet. A chemical use assessment turns a worry into a diagnosis and a level of care, and then we tell you plainly what we recommend.

Substance use

Substance use disorders we treat in Minnesota

Seven groups, one outpatient path. The substance shapes the withdrawal risk and the early weeks, not the level of care or the counselors you work with.

The most common reason people call us, and the one most often hidden behind a functioning life.

Prescription opioids, heroin, and the fentanyl that now contaminates most of the illicit supply. Detox often comes first. We do not provide it, but we help you find it.

Methamphetamine, cocaine, and prescription stimulants. Group work is where most of the traction comes from.

Benzodiazepines, sleep medications, and other prescriptions that started as treatment. Stopping abruptly can be dangerous, so a medical provider guides the taper.

Legal does not mean harmless. Cannabis use disorder is a real diagnosis.

LSD, ecstasy and MDMA, ketamine, and PCP. Usually part of a wider pattern, which is what the assessment sorts out.

Inhalants, nitrous oxide, and substances that show up faster than the research does.

Not on the list?

This list is not a filter. Call us and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right fit, and help you find who is if we are not.

LegitScript Certified

Verified addiction treatment provider

An assessment is the only honest answer. Clinically it comes down to criteria including cravings, tolerance, using more than you intended, and continuing despite consequences. A chemical use assessment sorts out which apply and how severe it is.

Yes, and that is common. Most people who come to us are using more than one thing, and the plan accounts for all of it.

No. Northwoods Haven Recovery is an outpatient program with no detox, inpatient, or residential care. If you are in active withdrawal, we will help you find a provider, then welcome you back.

That is what outpatient care is designed for. Programming is built around work, school, and family rather than in place of them.
