About State Hospital North
State Hospital North is a psychiatric hospital in Orofino, Idaho. They provide inpatient care for adults who need immediate help for severe mental illness. They also treat co-occurring conditions, like drug and alcohol addictions. Most people attend this program under a civil commitment offered through the court system.
The facility can hold up to 55 people at a time. Their goal is to stabilize you and address your symptoms so you can return to your community as soon as possible. Once they’ve reached that point, they’ll work with you and your family to decide what the next best step should be. They work closely with regional mental health centers that can offer follow up support after your hospitalization is over.
One of the things I like about this facility is that they balance medication and therapy with hands on activities to help you heal physically, mentally, and emotionally. During your inpatient treatment, you’ll participate in counseling sessions to help you understand and address your behavior. You’ll also exercise, focus on your nutrition, and attend educational classes that teach you how to live in recovery. If you need primary care at any point, they offer those services, too.
While one former client calls this the best place to go for inpatient care, others have shared stories of unprofessional conduct from the staff members and say the team’s communication needs serious work.

Treatment
Dual Diagnosis
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
Mental 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.
Clinical Services
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Research has shown that cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in Idaho is one of the most effective forms of therapy to treat substance use disorders and accompanying mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression. The focus of this method is to learn about and change patterns of thinking and behavior.
Dialectical 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
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.
Individual 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.
Life Skills
Part of recovery is replacing unhealthy habits with healthy life skills. These include psychological skills and social skills that allow you to thrive post treatment. While in rehab in Idaho, you'll work on developing these skills so you have the tools you need for a new life.
Nutrition Therapy
Chronic substance use leads to biochemical imbalances that contribute to cravings and poor mental health. Nutrition therapy works to restore balance by giving your body the nutrients it needs for optimal performance.
Nicotine Replacement Therapy
Nicotine replacement therapy gives your body a small, controlled amount of nicotine to reduce withdrawal and cravings. Formats include patches, gum, and lozenges. These tools can double your chances of quitting long term.
