The History of DCourakn e seling Services

Established in 1992, Drake and Burau Counseling Services, Inc. began serving the Fargo community with two licensed addiction counselors and a consulting psychiatrist. Offer ing adults and their families services including intensive outpatient treatment and relapse pre vention for their substance use disorders, Drake and Burau recognized the community need for treatment services that catered to chemically dependent adolescents and their families. By 1995, additional licensed addiction counselors and consulting psychiatrists specializing in adolescent care were appointed. Adolescent treatment programming commenced and supplemented the growing need for programs to aide adolescents and their families with their substance abuse and chemical dependency.

Drake and Burau knew the importance of providing an entire family with healing and subsequently added licensed professional clinical counselors in 1996 to practice therapeutic rehabilitation to manage clinically significant disorders other than chemical dependency or substance abuse. In 2001, Drake and Burau Counseling Services, Inc. renamed to Drake Counseling Services, Inc. and introduced North Dakota state sanctioned DUI seminars. Drake’s reputable counseling services expanded to Grand Forks, North Dakota in early 2002 and began providing chemical dependency recovery support, as well as other therapeutic treatment services. From 2002 to 2005, Drake’s Fargo office established Partial Hospitalization Services to both adults and adolescents while the Grand Forks office initiated PHP services for adults only.
