About Living Free Recovery Services
Living Free Recovery Services LLC in Minneapolis, MN offers outpatient and intensive outpatient programming for adults working toward lasting sobriety. Rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, the center provides structured substance abuse treatment that fits around real life. Medicaid, state insurance, private insurance, and self-pay options make recovery accessible to a broad range of people in the Minneapolis area.
Living Free Recovery Services LLC is a substance use treatment center located at 9201 75th Avenue North in Minneapolis, Minnesota, within Hennepin County. For individuals who are ready to engage in ongoing recovery work without stepping away from their daily responsibilities, Living Free offers outpatient-level addiction treatment designed to meet people where they are — not just at the point of crisis.
The center provides two distinct levels of outpatient care: a standard Outpatient Program and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). The IOP is particularly suited to those who need more structured support than traditional outpatient allows, making it a fitting option for people transitioning from residential treatment or navigating an early, demanding phase of recovery. Both tracks are grounded in real treatment rather than a one-size approach.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) anchors the clinical work at Living Free Recovery Services. CBT is a well-established therapeutic method that helps individuals identify the thought patterns and behaviors driving substance use, then develop practical tools for changing them. This focus on skill-building gives clients something concrete to carry forward long after their formal treatment ends.
Living Free Recovery Services accepts Medicaid, state insurance, private insurance, and self-pay, removing a common barrier that keeps people from seeking substance abuse treatment. Located in Minneapolis, the center serves individuals in Hennepin County who are looking for an outpatient recovery program that takes both the clinical and practical sides of recovery seriously. Reach the center directly at (763) 315-7170 or visit livingfreerecovery.org to learn more.
Outpatient & Intensive Outpatient Programs in Minneapolis
Living Free Recovery Services LLC offers two levels of outpatient addiction treatment at their Minneapolis location: a standard Outpatient Program and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). These tracks serve different points in the recovery continuum — the IOP is structured for individuals who need frequent, focused treatment sessions, while the standard outpatient level works well for those who have built a foundation in recovery and are consolidating their progress.
Both programs allow individuals to remain living in their own homes and communities throughout treatment, a meaningful advantage for those with family responsibilities, employment, or other commitments. For many people in longer-term recovery, maintaining those real-world connections is not just practical — it is an essential part of the recovery process itself.
CBT-Based Treatment: Building Skills That Last
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the clinical foundation at Living Free Recovery Services. CBT works by helping individuals examine the relationship between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors — and then practice new responses to the triggers and stressors that have historically driven substance use. The method is structured and skill-focused, which makes it well suited to outpatient settings where clients are practicing those skills in real time between sessions.
This approach emphasizes personal accountability and practical change, which aligns with what many people in recovery are actually looking for: not just a period of abstinence, but a different way of operating in the world. The skills developed in CBT-based treatment tend to remain relevant well into aftercare, giving clients a durable framework for maintaining sobriety.
Payment Options and Access to Recovery Care
Living Free Recovery Services accepts Medicaid, state insurance, private insurance, and self-pay or cash arrangements. This range of payment options reflects a genuine commitment to making substance abuse treatment accessible in the Minneapolis community, particularly for individuals who might otherwise face financial barriers to entering or continuing care.
Prospective clients or their family members who want to understand coverage options or confirm payment logistics are encouraged to contact the center directly at (763) 315-7170 or visit livingfreerecovery.org. Getting clarity on the financial side early can remove one of the most common reasons people delay starting outpatient treatment.
Who Living Free Recovery Services Serves
Living Free Recovery Services is designed for adults in Minneapolis and Hennepin County who are seeking structured outpatient addiction treatment as part of a longer-term recovery plan. The center is particularly relevant for individuals who do not require inpatient or residential care but still need more than minimal support — a population often underserved by treatment systems focused on acute crisis intervention.
Whether someone is stepping down from a higher level of care, re-engaging with treatment after a setback, or starting outpatient programming for the first time, Living Free offers a setting where recovery work can happen in the context of everyday life. That community-connected model of care is at the center of what they offer.

Frequently Asked Questions
What levels of care does Living Free Recovery Services offer?
Living Free Recovery Services offers two outpatient levels of care: a standard Outpatient Program and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). The IOP provides more frequent and structured sessions, making it appropriate for individuals who need intensive support while still living at home. Both programs are designed for people engaged in ongoing recovery rather than acute crisis stabilization.
What is the difference between the Outpatient Program and the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)?
An Intensive Outpatient Program typically involves a higher number of weekly treatment hours than standard outpatient care, making it a better fit for individuals in earlier or more demanding stages of recovery. The standard Outpatient Program is generally suited to those who have established a recovery foundation and need ongoing structure and support. Living Free offers both tracks, allowing clients to be placed at the level that matches their current needs.
What therapeutic approach does Living Free Recovery Services use?
Living Free Recovery Services uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a core part of their clinical programming. CBT helps individuals recognize and change the thought patterns and behaviors connected to substance use, and equips them with practical coping skills for maintaining recovery. This approach is well-established in addiction treatment and applies directly to the challenges clients face day to day.
Does Living Free Recovery Services accept Medicaid?
Yes. Living Free Recovery Services accepts Medicaid as a payment method, along with state insurance, private insurance, and self-pay or cash. This range of options is intended to reduce financial barriers for individuals seeking outpatient substance abuse treatment in Minneapolis. Contact the center at (763) 315-7170 to discuss your specific coverage situation.

Is Living Free Recovery Services a good fit for someone stepping down from residential treatment?
The Intensive Outpatient Program at Living Free Recovery Services is often a practical option for individuals transitioning out of residential treatment who still need structured support before moving to a less intensive level of care. Outpatient programming allows people to apply their recovery skills in their home environment while maintaining regular clinical contact. Speaking with their team directly can help determine which level of care is the right fit at a given point in someone's recovery.

What makes an outpatient program the right choice for long-term recovery?
Outpatient and intensive outpatient programs allow individuals to remain in their communities — keeping jobs, living at home, and maintaining family relationships — while receiving structured addiction treatment. This integration of treatment into everyday life can strengthen long-term recovery by building and practicing coping skills in real-world settings rather than in a removed residential environment. For many people, outpatient care is where the most durable recovery work happens.
How do I get started with Living Free Recovery Services?
