About Northland Counseling Center – International Falls
Northland Counseling Center International Falls provides outpatient substance use disorder and mental health services to adults and adolescents in Koochiching County and the surrounding area. The center offers Rule 25 assessments, individual and group counseling, peer recovery support, and specialized programming including the Matrix Model and gambling treatment. Northland Counseling delivers evidence-based, integrated care that supports lasting recovery through structured programming and individualized support.
Outpatient Substance Use Disorder Treatment
Northland Counseling's core focus is outpatient addiction treatment, beginning with comprehensive Rule 25 assessments and continuing through individual and group counseling. I've found that the center integrates evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to address substance use disorders in adults and adolescents.
Treatment sessions combine individual counseling with group therapy on a variety of topics tailored to client needs. The center also offers the Matrix Model, a 16-week structured program that includes group therapy, individual counseling, family education and monitoring. I've found that the clients benefit from peer recovery support services and referrals to medication services and community partners, ensuring comprehensive care that addresses both immediate symptoms and long-term recovery goals.
Integrated Mental Health and Family Support
In addition to addiction treatment, Northland Counseling provides mental health services for depression, anxiety, grief and loss, trauma and relationship concerns. The center offers individual, couples, and family therapy, as well as Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) to support loved ones in the recovery process.

Addiction Treatment Programs
Adult Program
When an individual struggles with drug and alcohol use, an adult program in Minnesota can provide treatment and mental health support. Designed for men and women over the age of 18, these programs help individuals obtain and maintain sobriety.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive behavioral therapy in Minnesota is based on rapid, action-focused treatment. This works well for 60 to 90-day rehab programs by providing participants with immediate and effective coping techniques.EMDR Therapy
EMDR Therapy is a neurobiological treatment modality used to address trauma disorders and related mental and behavioral health challenges. Short for eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, EMDR is designed to help clients cope with distressing memories and emotions, including fear, sadness, and anger. EMDR may help clients in addiction recovery manage the psychological and emotional triggers that contribute to substance misuse and/or addiction relapse.Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is an evidence-based complementary approach to addiction treatment in which clients enter an induced state of deep relaxation. Once the client has entered this hypnotic state, the hypnotherapist uses various techniques, including guided imagery and positive affirmations, to help clients “unlearn” negative behaviors, such as substance misuse, and adopt healthy ones. The approach supports clients’ long-term mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing and reduces their risk of relapse by tapping into the power of the subconscious mind.Levels of Care
Outpatient Rehab
Outpatient rehab in Minnesota provides a less restrictive environment than inpatient. You’ll live at home wh...ile attending just a few hours of counseling sessions per week and receive ongoing support through a program such as AA or NA. This will continue for as long as you need this level of accountability.Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health
Left untreated, mental disorders complicate substance abuse disorders and make addiction treatment ineffective.... Dual diagnosis treatment in Minnesota addresses both, making it ideal for those who have co-occurring disorders.Aftercare & Alumni Program
For months or years after achieving initial sobriety, aftercare rehab in Minnesota gives you access to resourc...es that help you maintain sobriety after treatment. You can receive support through 12-step groups, ongoing counseling, and financial coaching.Insurance
