Every recovery journey is different, which is why we craft personalized treatment plans to meet each client’s individual needs. By incorporating therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), medication-assisted treatment (MAT), and holistic approaches, we tackle the root causes of addiction, fostering long-term recovery.
While we do not offer residential treatment, we have trusted community partners who provide intensive, round-the-clock care for those who need it. We can connect individuals to these programs to ensure they receive the support they need before stepping down into our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP).
This approach allows clients to transition seamlessly into our care, where they can continue their recovery journey with personalized treatment plans and ongoing support.

At Northstar Recovery Center, individuals are encouraged to bring a few key items to make their stay more comfortable and beneficial. First, pack comfortable clothing and footwear that allow for ease of movement and relaxation. Simple items like pajamas, sneakers, and loungewear can make a big difference in promoting a sense of well-being during the process. Additionally, bringing personal hygiene products, such as toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, and soap, ensures that individuals can maintain their daily routines and self-care practices.
It’s important to remember that rehab is not just about physical healing but also emotional and mental well-being. Consider packing items that bring comfort and joy, such as photos of loved ones, a journal for self-reflection, or a favorite book for moments of solace. These personal touches can serve as reminders of the support system waiting outside the walls of the center and provide a source of motivation and inspiration.
We welcome and encourage family visits as they can have a positive impact on the recovery journey. By spending time with loved ones in a supportive and caring environment, clients can feel a sense of connection and love that truly uplifts their spirits. These visits provide an opportunity for families to understand the progress their loved one is making, gain insights into the treatment process, and learn how to provide ongoing support once their loved one returns home.
When it comes to choosing between outpatient and inpatient rehab at Northstar Recovery Center, both options have their own unique benefits. Outpatient treatment offers a flexible approach to addiction rehab, allowing individuals to attend therapy sessions and receive support while still living at home and maintaining their daily routines. This can be incredibly beneficial for those who have responsibilities they can’t step away from, such as work or family commitments.
Inpatient treatment provides a more intensive level of care and support, with round-the-clock monitoring and a structured environment that can be particularly helpful for those with severe addictions or who need a break from triggers in their daily life. At Northstar Recovery Center, both outpatient and inpatient programs are designed with the individual’s needs in mind, ensuring that each person receives personalized care and attention to help them receive the treatment and recovery support they need.
During rehab, you may experience physical and emotional withdrawal symptoms as your body adjusts to being without the substance it has become dependent on. This can be challenging, but it’s all part of the healing process. Our compassionate staff at Northstar Recovery Center are there to provide you with the necessary medical and emotional support to help you through this difficult time. This includes treatment services such as, 24/7 monitoring and medication-assisted therapy (MAT) to help ease withdrawal symptoms.
