About Anthony Louis Center – Blaine – Blaine
The Anthony Louis Center is an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center in Blaine, Minnesota, that treats adolescents aged 13 to 18 years old. The services offered include drug education and residential and intensive outpatient programs. Family counseling and after school programs are also available.
The facility understands that teen clients have their own unique needs that are different from individuals at adult treatment centers. They have more than 40 years of experience tailoring their addiction treatment to this specific group. The Anthony Louis Center works with most insurance plans and can also help clients see if they qualify to have county funding pay for their treatment.
In their approach to recovery for teens, they treat this age group with the awareness that teens tend to use different drugs than adults and use those drugs for different reasons. Because many teens aren’t yet responsible for supporting themselves, the facility starts by helping them understand the consequences of continuing their addiction.
While most teens do drugs to seek a fun high rather than relieve stress, staff members still help their clients develop coping strategies to manage any stress they experience. While teen patients are getting treatment, they can still continue attending regular school if they’re doing outpatient treatment.
If a client is doing residential treatment then the center may provide different core classes to keep the client learning until they complete treatment and are able to go back to school full time. When treatment is completed, the Anthony Louis Center has specialized programs to continue supporting the client and help them have a smooth transition as they continue life without substances.
