Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

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.

Heart icon Treatment

mental-health iconMental Health

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

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.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

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.

medical-detox iconExperiential Therapy

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.

family iconFamily Therapy

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.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

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.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

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.

Nutrition Therapy

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.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

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.

I have been seeing a provider for some time. He was great. Suddenly my appointments are 6 weeks apart. I was sent a message with appo8ntments every 2 weeks in August, then suddenly they were cancelling 2 and giving me one 2 months from last. Not good mental health support. Causes me to struggle even more. Adam was great. Altru behavioral health is really bad

Edit: NewI found a wonderful Psychiatrist! Evan Sconce. He's out of Theif River Falls so I do video visits with him. Regardless of anything he's done for me medically the most important thing he done for me is listen. He treats me like a person not a case file. He's helping me so much. (It was just the luck of the draw. I didn't want to see Dr __ any more and demanded I be switched) I'm so glad I stood up for myself and got him.Thank you Evan. Before I switched to you I was in a bad place. It's a process. But for the 1st time I trust and respect my psychiatrist. You've given me a better outlook in life.I'm very grateful for your help.Old ReviewThey do have a few great people working here. Patrick in reception in particular is an awesome person and genuinely cares and treats you like a human being.The doctor I had was horrible. I actually have gotten worse psychologically partially due to the Dr's treatment. I saw him for YEARS and every visit was like the 1st. He wouldn't have known my name if it wasn't on my file. My appointments were often canceled with little to no notice. One time I learned of the cancelation when I arrived. In general the experience I had was dehumanizing at best. I feel bad for the very sick people that aren't able to advocate for themselves. It must be terrifying. I've started doing video visits with a provider in Theif River Falls that has been wonderful.

They have cancelled 2 out of 3 of my appointments so far, the last being cancelled only one hour before my appointment time. I don't see how DOCTORS think it's a good idea to do this to patients that are dealing with depression or other serious mental health issues. This is SHAMEFUL.

The front desk people are very kind, helpful, and curteous. I gave it a 3 due to I was stuck with temporary psychatrists for a year and a half till I found out there was a full time permanent therapist available. The full time therapist is nice, firm but willing to listen.
