Clear, professional assessments that recommend the right level of care, for individuals and referral partners across the metro.
Whether you are worried about your own use, or a court or employer has required it, a good assessment answers one question honestly: what, if anything, do you actually need?
We provide confidential chemical use assessments and DWI evaluations for adults across Minneapolis, and we give you a clear, respectful recommendation you can act on.
There is no gotcha and no shame here. Just an accurate picture and a real path forward.
Whatever brought you here, personal concern or a legal requirement, we provide the evaluation you need.
A thorough evaluation of your substance use and a recommendation for the right level of care.
The substance use evaluation often required after a DWI, completed thoroughly and on time.
Evaluations for the court, probation, or an attorney, handled professionally and confidentially.
Using ASAM criteria, we recommend the least intensive care that will actually help.
We screen for the anxiety, depression, or trauma that so often accompany substance use.
A clear plan, whether that is care with us or a coordinated referral elsewhere.
An assessment should do more than check a box. Ours gives you an accurate picture and a plan you can trust.
We take the time to understand your full situation, and we treat you like a person, not a file.
We use the national standard so the recommendation is objective, defensible, and right-sized.
You leave knowing exactly what is recommended and why, with no vague runaround.
If care is recommended, we make the handoff simple, whether that is with us or elsewhere.
Matching a person to the right level of care is one of the core principles of effective treatment. Too little support and progress slips; too much and life is disrupted for no reason. A good assessment is how you get it right from the start.
It is also, for many people, the moment things finally start to make sense, because an honest picture is easier to face than a vague fear.
Tell us what you need and why, whether personal or required. We will explain the process.
A thorough, respectful conversation about your history, health, and current use.
We use ASAM criteria to recommend the right level of care, or confirm none is needed.
Any required paperwork completed, and a simple path into care if that is what fits.
Most assessments are completed in a single appointment. We will confirm the details and any paperwork you should bring when you call.
In many cases, yes, a substance use evaluation is part of the process. We complete DWI evaluations and provide the documentation required.
Your results are confidential. For court-ordered or DWI evaluations, we share only what is required, and only with your written consent.
We work with many major Minnesota plans. Verify your coverage here and we will confirm your benefits privately, with no obligation.
