A place of refuge for people ready to walk out of the storm of addiction, in Minneapolis and surrounding areas.
Addiction can feel like a flood that takes everything. An ark is what carries you through it. That image is the heart of who we are: a place of shelter and honest help, where you are met with grace instead of shame.
Ark Counseling joins clinical, evidence based counseling with a quiet, faith informed hope. Our care welcomes people of every background and belief, and faith is offered, never forced.
You do not have to have it all figured out to begin. You only have to take the next step.
Not a program you disappear into, but a steady hand that walks with you while you keep living your life.
Sound, evidence based practice held together with the belief that every person has dignity and worth.
Keep living at home and working while you get well, with in person and telehealth options across Minnesota.
Substance use and mental health so often travel together, so we treat them side by side, not in separate boxes.
You are more than your worst moment. We meet you with respect, honesty, and no shame, wherever you are starting from.
In the oldest story of the flood, the ark is not a place people earn their way into. It is a refuge that carries them through what they could not survive alone. That is the picture we want for this practice: a safe vessel, honest work, and hope on the other side.
Our care leans on that story without ever preaching it. For those who want it, faith and spiritual support are woven in. For those who do not, they are never a requirement. Every person is welcomed exactly as they are.
Read our core values, meet the team, or see our facility.
These are not words on a wall. They shape how we answer the phone, build a plan, and sit with people on the hardest days.
Every person is met with respect and without shame, no matter what brought them here.
Real change begins with the truth, spoken gently and received with grace.
You are more than your worst moment. Recovery is a story of being carried, not earning your way.
Compassion is not a substitute for skill. We hold ourselves to sound, evidence based practice.
No one heals alone. We build connection into every level of care.
Reaching out is the step almost no one regrets. Tell us what is going on, and we will help you find the next right thing.
