What We Offer
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.
Addiction touches everyone around the person using. We help families understand, communicate, and heal — together or separately, on your terms.
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.
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
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.
Our Approach
Call us or send an email. Tell us as much or as little as you're comfortable with. There's no wrong way to start.
We'll sit down together — no rush, no pressure — to understand your situation and what support would actually help.
Together, we'll map out a path that fits your life, your goals, and your readiness. You're always driving.
We stay with you through the ups and the hard days. Recovery is a journey, and you don't have to navigate it alone.
"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."
