How do I choose a treatment center in Minnesota that’s right for me?

There are multiple clinics and treatment centers that provide addiction treatment in Minnesota. Successfully managing a substance use issue often depends on finding the right environment for you or a loved one.


Inpatient or outpatient treatment center?

Addiction treatment is an important commitment that involves examining your life, your choices, and the influences for good and bad in your life.  Treatment sessions can be moving, liberating, and exhausting.

Some people require inpatient treatment in order to separate themselves from their influences and routines so that they can focus exclusively on recovery.  For others, intensive outpatient treatment is a more reasonable and equally effective solution.  Intensive outpatient treatment allows a person to maintain their home environment while engaging in therapy.


A treatment schedule that fits for you

Inpatient or outpatient, addiction treatment requires a schedule of several hours per week to effectively confront influences and habits that have accumulated over years.  If you enroll in outpatient treatment, you should be able to find treatment in your area that will allow you to stick with the process and schedule, with your choice of daytime, evening, or weekend hours. For example, at Club Recovery, we offer groups that meet during weekday evenings or on Saturdays.


Convenient location

Consistent attendance at treatment sessions is fundamental for success.  Make sure that the treatment center you choose is easily reached by car or public transportation.  Public transportation options are especially important if you have lost your driving privileges.  Club Recovery is located across from the Southdale Shopping Center and convenient to bus lines. We are situated in an office building with ample parking, easily accessed and close to Highway 62.


A comfortable, supportive environment

Intensive outpatient treatment is a demanding and transformative experience.  It is important that you feel safe and well supported through the process. Choose a treatment center where you sense that the staff is highly qualified, experienced, and professional as well as empathetic and supportive. In addition, a treatment center like ours that is small enough to allow you to develop close relationships with the staff provides familiarity and intimacy that many clients find reassuring.

Consider also that the clinic’s location or demographic orientation will influence the client base at that center. It is reasonable for you to seek a center for group therapy where you feel that your fellow group members will be supportive and help make you feel comfortable and welcome.
