Goodman Addiction Services

Goodman Addiction Services structures its addiction treatment around two outpatient levels of care: a standard Outpatient Program and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). For people who have completed a higher level of care — such as residential treatment — and are transitioning back to daily life, outpatient services at Goodman offer the ongoing structure that supports lasting recovery. The IOP level is designed for individuals who need more frequent therapeutic contact than standard outpatient provides, without requiring an overnight stay.

Both programs are available to adolescents and adults in Minot and the surrounding Ward County area. The outpatient model means participants can continue living at home, maintaining employment or school attendance while engaging in active substance abuse treatment. This community-integrated approach to recovery is central to what Goodman Addiction Services offers the Minot area.

The therapeutic foundation at Goodman Addiction Services centers on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and individual sessions. CBT is one of the most widely studied approaches in addiction treatment, focused on helping clients recognize and reshape the thinking patterns that contribute to substance use. Individual sessions allow for a personalized focus on each person's specific recovery needs within the outpatient program framework.

For adolescents navigating substance abuse treatment, this one-on-one therapeutic format can be particularly meaningful — providing a private space to work through the personal and social factors involved in their recovery. Adults in the IOP or standard outpatient program similarly benefit from the direct, skill-building focus that CBT brings to ongoing recovery work.

Goodman Addiction Services holds a Certified DUI Instructor certification, which means the clinic provides DUI-related evaluation and educational programming in addition to its core outpatient addiction treatment services. For individuals who have been court-referred or who need DUI assessments as part of a legal process, this removes the need to seek evaluation and treatment at separate facilities.

Integrating DUI services with outpatient substance abuse treatment reflects a practical approach to the reality that many people entering the recovery system do so through the legal system. Goodman's ability to address both needs — clinical treatment and DUI-related requirements — in one Minot location can simplify the process for individuals and families navigating both recovery and legal obligations simultaneously.

Goodman Addiction Services accepts a broad range of payment options, making addiction treatment accessible to people across different financial circumstances in Minot, ND. Accepted insurance includes Medicaid, Medicaid Expansion, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, and Sanford Health. Private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay are also accepted, giving families and individuals multiple pathways to cover the cost of outpatient or IOP care.

The clinic's weekday hours run from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday through Friday, with the same hours available on Saturday. This schedule provides working adults, students, and caregivers a realistic window to attend regular treatment sessions without sacrificing employment or family responsibilities — a consistent barrier to accessing outpatient programs for many people in recovery.
