About Sanford Behavioral Health
Sanford Behavioral Health is a community based behavioral health and substance use treatment program in Bemidji, Minnesota offering outpatient addiction recovery services alongside mental health care.
I want to note that the organization's program for addiction recovery provides structured outpatient treatment, while broader services include crisis response, therapy and assessments.
Sanford Behavioral Health takes an integrated approach that supports clients with both substance use and co-occurring mental health needs.
Outpatient Addiction Recovery Programs
Treatment typically begins with an intake assessment including Rule 25 chemical health assessments, to determine the most appropriate level of care.
From there, clients may enter the program for addiction recovery or join Chemical Dependency Outpatient Groups for structured, ongoing support.
Within these programs, clients can expect individualized treatment planning, group therapy and services that address co-occurring disorders.
I want to add that the organization also offers DWI Clinic Education Classes for court involved individuals and provides culturally specific programming for Native American clients.
