Comprehensive Addiction Recovery Services
Facing substance use disorder is a challenging journey, but comprehensive support is available. Located within the Blue Earth County Government Center in Mankato, MN, our Human Services division offers a spectrum of resources aimed at helping individuals and families achieve sustainable recovery. We understand that addiction is a complex public health issue requiring personalized, multidisciplinary intervention. Our approach integrates clinical excellence with compassionate, community-focused care to address the physical, emotional, and social dimensions of recovery.
A Holistic Approach to Wellness
Our program emphasizes holistic well-being, recognizing that effective treatment extends beyond addressing substance use alone. We utilize evidence-based therapies designed to identify the root causes of addiction, develop essential coping mechanisms, and foster long-term resilience. This includes individual counseling sessions, which provide a confidential space for personal exploration, alongside group therapy formats that promote peer support and shared experiences. We aim to equip every participant with the tools necessary to navigate life’s stressors without reliance on substances.
Key Program Components
- Individualized Treatment Planning: Creating recovery goals tailored to the participant’s unique history and needs.
- Mental Health Integration: Addressing co-occurring mental health disorders (dual diagnosis) simultaneously with substance use.
- Family Support Services: Offering education and counseling to help families heal and support their loved ones effectively.
- Referral Networks: Connecting individuals with ongoing support resources, including housing assistance, vocational training, and long-term sobriety groups.
Commitment to Community Resources
As part of Blue Earth County Human Services, we leverage local governmental resources to ensure accessibility and continuity of care. We believe that a strong network of community support is vital for maintaining sobriety after formal treatment concludes. Our staff works diligently to remove barriers to treatment and follow-up care, ensuring that financial concerns or logistical challenges do not impede the path to recovery. Our dedicated team is available during standard business hours (Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM) to assist with initial assessments and linkage to the appropriate services.
