Great to meet you

First Step Counseling Services, Inc, located in Sioux Falls, SD, has been treating alcoholism and drug addiction since 1983. The practice was established by Lou Ann Solem-Tietjen and the late Kent Solem, both Licensed Addiction Professionals. First Step offers personalized outpatient treatment programs and diagnostic evaluations for drug and alcohol dependency. Their approach treats addiction as a health issue rather than a moral issue, addressing the thinking errors associated with chemical dependency. Programs are designed to allow clients to remain in their homes, continue employment, and maintain family life while receiving treatment. Services include individualized counseling and aftercare support.
