Mental Health Center Minneapolis

People Incorporated’s Stark Mental Health Clinic provides comprehensive mental health services including assessment, diagnoses, and treatment for people with mental illness, adjustment issues, and those struggling with co-occurring mental illness and chemical dependency. We also provide counseling for families in need of comprehensive care or support for a loved one’s mental illness. We aim to provide the highest-quality care based on best practices, and work collaboratively with each person or family to address mental health issues, optimize health and wellness, and develop strategies to reduce or eliminate obstacles to independence.

Our Services

• Assessments – We conduct assessments as needed, including diagnostic, functional, chemical use, and psychiatric assessments. These assist in determining the course of treatment and treatment planning.
• Psychiatric Medication Management – We help clients manage their psychiatric medications and help monitor and assess side-effects. We also monitor those who are tapering off or discontinuing medication.
• Psychotherapy – We offer psychotherapy for adults as one means of managing and treating mental, emotional, or behavioral problems. We also work collaboratively with parents to improve the quality of life for their children at home, in school, and in the community.
• Group Therapy – We offer a variety of group therapies including topical, process, and treatment groups; psycho-education about mental illness and resources for emotional support; curriculum-based teaching and practice for coping with and managing distressing symptoms; and assistance to individuals and families moving through changes in their lives.
• Family Therapy – We provide family therapy to help family members improve communication, solve family problems, understand and handle special family situations (such as death, serious physical or mental illness, or child and adolescent issues), and create a better functioning home environment. For families with a member who has a serious physical or mental illness, therapy can educate family members about the illness and work out problems associated with caregiving.
• Couples Counseling – We provide couples counseling to restore a better level of functioning for couples who experience relationship distress, and where a relationship problem may interfere with mental health treatment or independence.
