Twin Town

Twin Town is a 50-bed men’s residential addiction treatment program located in St. Paul, Minnesota. Twin Town has an extensive history of helping men find recovery from alcohol and other drug addiction as one of the longest-standing treatment centers in the state. Licensed as a co-occurring facility, we can address your addiction as well as any other mental health conditions you may have, giving you a better chance at lifelong recovery.

Serving men since the 1960s, today, patients are coached in new ways of thinking to reduce thoughts about alcohol and other drug abuse through Moral Recognition Therapy (MRT) and other evidence-based therapies. MRT is a type of behavioral therapy aimed at decreasing the likelihood of someone returning to abusing substances or alcohol. Typically used for those that have been in the criminal justice system, MRT focuses on the moral aspects of addiction and the social consequences that may be associated with using drugs or alcohol. It is a cognitive-behavioral approach that treats substance use disorders, trauma, domestic violence, and more.

Each individual who enters Twin Town will work closely with a dedicated counselor as well as in groups to determine an evidence-based treatment plan to meet your personal needs and goals. Core treatment programming could include the following:

  • Assessments related to your substance use, medical and mental health history. These will be used to develop your individualized treatment plan but can change throughout your stay based on the progress you’re making
  • Medication assisted therapy to address any ongoing medical needs but to also help reduce the symptoms of withdrawal and ease cravings
  • Recreational therapy to help you learn to have fun without the use of substances. There is also an on-site gym with treadmills, dumbbells, weight bench, lat machine and exercise bike.
  • Concerned Persons Group is facilitated by a LADC and is on Saturdays from 1 – 2 p.m.
  • Group therapy groups which could include the following:
    • Anger management
    • Life skills
    • Coping skills
    • Relapse prevention
    • Healthy relationships
    • Stress management
    • Family education
    • Addiction education
    • Mental health education
    • Communication skills

For those working without outside professionals, we can provide non-emergency transportation to appointments.

Committed to treating the whole person, we offer the men who walk through our doors the opportunity to live a life of healing and purpose. So call today – you’re worth it!
