About Watershed Behavioral Health

Empowering recovery, transforming lives.

We are a licensed provider of inpatient and outpatient behavioral health treatment in Minneapolis, dedicated to helping individuals overcome substance use and mental health challenges through compassionate, evidence-based care.

Our Mission

Why we do this work

Our mission is to empower individuals to break free from the cycles of addiction and overcome mental health challenges by delivering compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to their unique needs. We believe recovery is more than treatment — it is a transformative journey that nurtures personal growth, restores hope, and rebuilds lives.

Through personalized recovery plans and unwavering support, we strive to provide a safe, inclusive environment where clients feel valued, understood, and motivated to succeed.

Our Vision

The future we're building toward

We envision a world where every individual has access to high-quality, effective care for addiction and mental health challenges, free from stigma and barriers. We aim to be a trusted leader in recovery and wellness across Minnesota, known for holistic, evidence-based solutions that meet the diverse needs of our clients.

By partnering with families, communities, and other organizations, we work to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and inspire a collective effort toward a healthier, more resilient community.

Our approach is rooted in measurable, individualized progress. We combine clinical therapy with physical wellness and practical life skills, and we continuously refine each client's plan based on their progress.

Evidence-Based Treatment

Comprehensive Support
