Maine Behavioral Healthcare

In Rockland, Maine, you’ll find Maine Behavioral Healthcare. They provide outpatient mental health and addiction treatment for adults, children and adolescents. This location on Union Street has psychiatry, counseling, medication assisted treatment, case management and peer support.

This clinic accepts Medicaid and Medicare along with other insurance plans. You can contact the clinic directly to see what insurance plans this location accepts. Evening hours may be available if arranged in advance.

Outpatient Substance Use Care Including Opioid Treatment

Maine Behavioral Healthcare has multiple outpatient programs for substance use treatment. They also treat mental health concerns, including co-occurring disorders. Mental health diagnoses can impact substance use and vice versa, so addressing both is essential.

The clinic also provides medication assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid misuse. I like that they can provide connections to harm reduction services to those who aren’t ready to stop using substances yet. That way, they can stay safer until they’re ready to seek treatment.

Additional Services to Help You Maintain Long Term Recovery

Treatment is an essential step to overcoming substance use, but it’s only the beginning. I was impressed that the Maine Behavioral Healthcare clinics recognize that by not only treating co-occurring and root issues but also by providing ongoing support after treatment.

The model at the Maine clinics is known as Intentional Peer Support and includes individual meetings with a peer, support groups, and outreach. The peers help you connect to the resources you need. That might mean helping you build a sober support network, find fun activities, and connect to social services to help with housing and employment.

It’s also worth noting that they’re by Harbor Park and the Atlantic shore if you like to spend your downtime outdoors. This support can make all the difference in maintaining long-term sobriety.
