Who is a good candidate for dual diagnosis treatment?

If you struggle with addiction and also experience mental health symptoms (e.g. anxiety, depression, PTSD), you may benefit from dual diagnosis care. Our clinicians assess both areas to determine the right approach.

We combine evidence-based therapies (like CBT, DBT), medication management, and integrated care so that both addiction and mental health conditions are treated together, not separately.

Outpatient treatment (often called OP) is a flexible model where clients attend therapy and clinical care on scheduled days—but return to their home each evening. No overnight stay is required.

Who is a good candidate for outpatient rehab vs. PHP or IOP?

Outpatient rehab is often appropriate for those with mild-to-moderate substance use disorders who need treatment but have stable living circumstances, work or family responsibilities, and don't require the high structure of PHP or IOP.

Our outpatient program offers individual counseling, group therapy, relapse prevention, education, and support for any co-occurring mental health issues or medications as needed.

What is Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) at Casco Bay Recovery?

Who is a good candidate for MAT?

MAT is helpful for individuals dealing with moderate to severe substance use disorders, especially opioid dependence, who benefit from medication support alongside counseling to manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms.

Can MAT be combined with other treatment levels like PHP, IOP, or outpatient care?

Young adults often face specific pressures around identity, peer influence, and transitions (college, work, relationships). Our program offers peer-focused support, life skills training, and therapies suited to that age group.

What therapeutic services are offered in the young adult rehab?

The program includes individual and group therapy, peer support groups, family involvement, evidence-based modalities, and support for any co-occurring mental health issues.

What is 'aftercare' at Casco Bay Recovery?

Aftercare (or continuing care) refers to the ongoing support, therapy, and relapse prevention services clients receive after completing a formal treatment program — to help maintain sobriety and transition to daily life.

What kinds of services are included in aftercare?

Our aftercare may include individual or group therapy, outpatient check-ins, support group participation, and assistance with life skills, relapse planning, or connection to community resources.
