Capital Area Counseling Services is a mental health treatment facility located in Pierre, South Dakota, dedicated to serving individuals and families struggling with substance use, mental health conditions, and co-occurring disorders. Based in the heart of South Dakota's capital city at 115 South Huron Street, Capital Area Counseling Services provides accessible, compassionate care to Pierre residents and surrounding communities. Whether you're seeking help for yourself or a loved one, this facility understands the challenges of managing mental health and addiction simultaneously and offers evidence-based treatment to support your recovery journey.
Capital Area Counseling Services offers outpatient mental health services as well as specialized co-occurring mental and substance use treatment. Outpatient programs allow individuals to receive therapy, counseling, and psychiatric care while maintaining daily responsibilities such as work, school, or family obligations—making treatment flexible and sustainable. Co-occurring disorder treatment is specifically designed for people managing both mental health conditions (such as depression, anxiety, or bipolar disorder) and substance use issues simultaneously. This integrated approach addresses how mental health and addiction interact, ensuring comprehensive care that treats the whole person rather than conditions in isolation. By coordinating mental health services with substance abuse treatment, the facility helps clients develop lasting coping strategies and achieve stable recovery.
Capital Area Counseling Services accepts a wide range of insurance plans and payment options to ensure treatment remains accessible. The facility takes Medicaid, Medicare, private health insurance, military insurance (VA/TRICARE), and state-financed health insurance plans, along with cash or self-payment options. Many insurance plans, including those covered under the Mental Health Parity Act, are required to provide equal coverage for mental health and substance use treatment as they do for medical and surgical services. The facility also offers sliding fee scales based on income and other factors, plus additional payment assistance programs—so cost should never prevent you from seeking the help you need and deserve.
If you or someone you care about is ready to take the first step toward recovery, call 605-224-5811 to speak directly with Capital Area Counseling Services.
