Northstar Behavioral Health Network - Saint Cloud

Outpatient Care Focused on Opioid Recovery

Northstar Behavioral Health’s Saint Cloud location offers outpatient-only treatment for adults seeking help for opioid addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions. Services include medications for addiction treatment (MAT) like buprenorphine, and evidence-based therapies that support long-term recovery. The program accommodates individuals at different stages, from initial stabilization to ongoing recovery, and does not offer residential or detox care.

Inclusive Care for Underserved Populations

The Saint Cloud location welcomes veterans, young adults, and individuals involved with the criminal justice system. Programs are inclusive of people who have experienced trauma, domestic violence, or unstable living environments. Smoking and vaping are permitted in designated areas on-site.

Focused Care for Co-Occurring Needs

The program is designed for clients managing both substance use and mental health conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, or chronic pain. Each client participates in evidence-based therapies including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and 12-step facilitation. Individual, group, family, and couples counseling foster emotional connection and long-term healing.

Medications for Addiction Treatment (MAT)

Clients receive on-site medication support, including buprenorphine-based treatments and extended-release formulations. MAT services are available both in-house and in coordination with external providers, and the facility also supports smoking cessation and mental health medication management.

Integrated Recovery Support and Aftercare

From the beginning of care, clients work with staff to develop personalized aftercare plans that support long-term recovery. Northstar helps connect clients with transitional housing, local recovery meetings, and continued access to medications and therapy. Peer mentoring is woven into the program to support community building and accountability beyond treatment
