Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation

About Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation – Chaska, Minnesota

Based in a southwest, suburban area known as Twin Cities in Chaska this center is just one of 5 Hazelden Betty Ford’s locations in Minnesota. With many more facilities dotted across 8 states nationwide. This center provides certified and accredited family and children’s services, outpatient mental health care, and addiction treatment for adults aged 18 and older.

Clients here can expect thorough and personalized addiction treatment here, that takes into account the complexity of this often misunderstood condition. A unique team approach is taken here. This means clients can expect to be assigned a primary addiction counselor, who also consults with a team of specialized therapists and psychologists to make sure treatment is integrated and fully aligned.

The teams here understand that one of the first steps to recovery is helping clients learn how to manage their symptoms as a means of regaining and maintaining their overall health and wellbeing. It’s thought that the structure that outpatient treatment provides can effectively support with this.

Depending on their needs and the severity of their addiction, clients can choose between varying levels of outpatient programming. In order of intensity, these include day treatment, or partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and low-intensity outpatient. IOP is available virtually and in-person for greater accessibility.

You’ll attend PHP services for four days a week, five hours a day. Comparatively, IOP takes place over the same number of days, but instead for three hours per day. As individuals progress through treatment, they may be gradually transitioned down to lower-intensity programming.

Individuals with dual-diagnosis or co-occurring disorders are also accommodated here. Mental health assessments and therapy can be integrated into individuals’ treatment plan, making sure all their needs are adequately addressed. This is mostly done through individual and group therapy sessions, as well as special focus groups like dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills.
