Casco Bay Recovery uses medication-assisted treatment (MAT) as a bridge to stability, safety, and lasting change. MAT is used thoughtfully and individually, combining Suboxone or Vivitrol with therapy and peer support to ease cravings and prevent relapse. MAT is used to create space for people to heal mentally and emotionally without being overwhelmed by obsession or withdrawal.
Find Tools, People, and Structure for Life after Treatment
The real work of recovery begins after treatment—and Casco Bay Recovery is there for every step that follows. They offer ongoing counseling, peer support, relapse prevention planning, and help finding sober housing, if needed. Staying sober isn’t about having enough willpower—it’s about having the right people and structure in place long after clients leave.
Get Support for the Most Pivotal Chapter of Life
Casco Bay’s young adult program is where clarity replaces chaos. Designed for people in their late teens and twenties, this program meets young adults at the crossroads of identity, pressure, and potential. With age-appropriate therapy, life skills, and peer connection, clients learn to manage emotions, let go of the past, and build a future that actually excites them.
Navigate Recovery with Gender-Specific Care
Healing is personal, and so is the path to get there. Casco Bay Recovery offers gender-specific treatment programs designed to meet the emotional, psychological, and social needs of both men and women. In these focused spaces, clients open up more freely, build trust with peers, and work through challenges without performing or hiding.
