Drug counseling in Minneapolis

Outpatient drug counseling that treats the person, not just the substance

Drug addiction is not a character flaw or a lack of willpower. It is a treatable condition that reshapes the brain, and it responds to real, structured care.

We provide outpatient counseling for adults across Minneapolis dealing with opioids, stimulants, prescription misuse, and more, so you can get well without leaving your life behind.

Our care is clinical and grace-centered. We use evidence-based methods, coordinate medical support when it helps, and we meet you with dignity, not judgment.

Our approach

Proven methods, delivered with grace

We combine the treatments with the strongest research base with a genuinely supportive relationship, so change actually holds.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Identify the triggers and thought patterns that drive use, and build concrete skills to respond differently.

Motivational Interviewing

We help you find your own reasons to change and move at a pace that is real, without pressure or shame.

Relapse Prevention

Map your high-risk moments and build a practical plan, so a slip does not become a full return to use.

Medication-assisted treatment

For opioid use, medications like buprenorphine save lives. We coordinate with prescribers so counseling and medication work together.

Faith-informed, never forced. For those who want it, we integrate faith and spiritual support as a source of strength in recovery. For those who do not, it is never a condition of care. Every person is welcomed exactly as they are.
The evidence

Does outpatient drug counseling work? Yes.

Addiction is a chronic condition, and like other chronic conditions it is managed, not cured overnight. That reframe matters: a setback is a signal to adjust care, not proof that you failed. Most people who keep working at it recover.

Nationally, overdose deaths just posted their steepest decline on record, driven in large part by treatment and medication reaching more people. Getting help changes the odds.

40 to 60%
relapse rates for addiction are in line with other chronic illnesses like diabetes and asthma, which is why setbacks are treated as part of care, not failure (NIDA).
72.2%
of adults who ever had a substance use problem consider themselves recovering or recovered (SAMHSA, 2021).

Common questions

Questions people ask first

Can outpatient counseling really work for drug addiction?

For many people, yes. Structured outpatient care is effective and lets you keep working and living at home. If you need a higher level first, our assessment will say so. See our levels of care.

What about medication for opioid use?

Medications like buprenorphine and naltrexone are proven to reduce overdose risk and support recovery. We coordinate with medical prescribers so counseling and medication reinforce each other.

Will my employer or family find out?

Substance use treatment records carry strict federal confidentiality protections. What you share is private, and we involve others only with your permission or when safety requires it.

Do you take insurance?

We work with many major Minnesota plans. Verify your coverage here and we will confirm your benefits privately, with no obligation.
