About Nexus-PATH Luther Hall

Luther Hall in Fargo, North Dakota, used to be called Lutheran Social Services but is now part of the Nexus – PATH Family Healing network. The center is set up to assist children and teens from ages 10 to 17 who have substance abuse addictions and emotional and behavioral health disorders. To do this, the center provides inpatient and outpatient programs.

Luther Hall has 14 bedrooms, a rec center, and multiple rooms for therapy and family conferencing. There’s an outdoor play space and garden as well.

Like a regular school, you’ll learn subject content and develop socialization skills.

I was here for a year in 2014, i ve heard it s been worse since they linked up with PATH, and i ve had horrible experiences with Path and their trauma and crisis therapists, and many other of their services and staff and their board team is juuust awful. which is why i m giving a one. I wouldn t dare trust PATH with my kids safety.In 2014 though, i hated the staff but i also liked them a lot too. The cook Rachel was THE BEST cook i ve ever met in my life and every wednesday we would get a sweet for the snack time and her fried ice cream was amazing, she treated me to sushi before she left too. I really did miss her but by then i was already almost out too, (i hope you re doing good rachel!!!) I thought i should also mention back then, there were doors leading outside that didn t lock, so we could run when we wanted lol.I was given a sandisk mp3 player back then and there was a whole book on songs you could have, i still have it! They also let us have roommates with the other girls under certain circumstances. I met some amazing staff and people in general back then. When i left, i did cry a lot because i missed them all. They did help me in the long run, but again, this place has clearly gone downhill and i wouldn t ever put my kids here considering path.

Location

Accepted Insurance

Nexus-PATH Luther Hall works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

inpatient iconInpatient
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Treatments

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.

Programs

lgbtq-program thumbnail image
LGBTQ Program
Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

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.

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.

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.

eye-movement iconEye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

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.

nutritional-therapy iconNutritional 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.

Tobacco use leads to nicotine dependence. This means your body has become dependent on the substance, and you'll experience withdrawal if you stop using it. Nicotine replacement therapy gives you nicotine in the form of patches, sprays, gum, or lozenges to relieve withdrawal symptoms and help you quit successfully.

I was there in 2018 to 2019, the staff was horrible, the cook would test new food on the kids I got super sick I could not walk I had to ho to the hospital from how sick I was I had to go home early and has lots of physical therapy now I can walk but this place is horrible you also have to earn to leave the felicity and if you want to see your family you have to reach a certain level to see them you also have certain days to call your family. They give you a snack once a day the snack tray is empty most of the time, when you eat a meal it s not even a meal it is like a mini lunchable nothing good I lost 25 pounds and my doctor said for me being 13 I shouldn t be that skinny. YOU HORRIBLE PEOPLE SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY. DO NOT BRING YOUR CHILDREN TO THIS PLACE!
