About Crossroads Greater Portland Counseling Center
Since 1974, Crossroads has helped men and women build long-term recovery through evidence-based, gender-responsive addiction and behavioral health treatment. Their Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) in Scarborough, Maine gives clients structured support for substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions while allowing them to continue work, school, and family responsibilities. Clients begin care with a comprehensive assessment from a Master’s-level licensed clinician who evaluates substance use, mental health concerns, family dynamics, and recovery goals to create a personalized treatment plan.
Evidence-Based Care with Family Support
Crossroads combines group therapy, individual counseling, relapse prevention, recovery education, family support, and 12-Step participation in a flexible outpatient setting. Clinicians use evidence-based therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help clients manage triggers, navigate difficult emotions, and develop healthier responses during recovery.
Gender-Specific Group Therapy
The program’s gender-specific approach creates separate men’s and women’s groups where clients can openly discuss addiction, trauma, relationships, family responsibilities, and mental health in a more supportive environment. Crossroads also incorporates families into the recovery process through family education, couples counseling, and support services that help rebuild trust, improve communication, and strengthen support systems at home.
