What We Offer

Support tailored to where you are right now

Individual Counseling

One-on-one sessions in a safe, confidential space. We work at your pace — whether you're in the early stages of questioning or already committed to change.

Family Support

Addiction touches everyone around the person using. We help families understand, communicate, and heal — together or separately, on your terms.

Assessment & Planning

Not sure what you need? We start with a thorough, no-pressure assessment to help you understand your options and choose the right path forward.

Ongoing Guidance

Recovery isn't a single moment — it's a series of days. We offer continued support, check-ins, and resources so you never feel like you're starting over.

About Us

A different kind of counseling office

New Journey Addiction Counseling was founded on a simple conviction: every person deserves a chance to rebuild — with dignity, with support, and without shame.

Located in the heart of Ames, we've built a practice that feels more like a conversation than a clinical encounter. No long waits, no complicated intake paperwork before you can breathe. Just a real person ready to listen and help you figure out what comes next.

We understand that reaching out is often the hardest step. That's why we make it as simple as a phone call or an email. Everything you share stays here — confidentiality isn't just policy, it's the foundation of everything we do.

"I didn't think I could ask for help — I was so tired of pretending everything was fine. The first time I walked through that door, I was terrified. But they made me feel like I mattered. That made all the difference."
