Mental Health & Wellness Services
Supporting mental wellness for children, adults and their families to grow and heal
Outpatient mental health, wellness, addiction, and recovery services for children, adolescents, adults, and families.
You are more than a diagnosis and a treatment at Wilder. While we treat individuals, we recognize that healing is more likely to happen when families and other support systems are involved. Together, we support growth and healing!
Our LGBTQ+, Black, African American, Latinx, Native American, Indigenous, Asian, and Southeast Asian professionals bring their diverse lived experiences to provide trauma-informed, culturally-relevant mental health and wellness services that support individuals and their families. Wilder is a leading mental health provider and a Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic in Minnesota. (See our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion at Wilder.)
