Coastal Maine communities face unique challenges in addressing substance use disorders. Many residents grapple with the pressures of seasonal employment, tourism and tight-knit social circles, making it difficult to maintain confidentiality and distance from triggers. At ENSO Recovery, we recognize these obstacles and offer comprehensive services at our Sanford location to serve as an accessible, inland treatment option for coastal residents.
Why Seek Treatment Inland?
Placing distance between yourself and your familiar environment can provide clarity and promote long-term recovery. Our Sanford center balances accessibility for individuals who live on the coast with the benefits of being away from familiar shore-based influences. You can still enjoy the comfort of Maine’s scenery without the added temptations that may exist in your home community.
Comprehensive Services for Coastal Residents
We provide a range of evidence-based treatment programs designed to address the specific needs of coastal Maine communities. Our offerings include:
- Outpatient Treatment: Intensive outpatient and standard outpatient services allow you to continue daily responsibilities while receiving therapy, counseling and support.
- Recovery Housing: We offer safe, structured residences that help individuals maintain sobriety and develop life skills. This supportive environment fosters connection with peers who share similar goals.
Transportation Considerations
We understand that traveling from coastal areas can be a barrier. Our team will work with you to explore transportation options, including carpooling with peers, connecting with local services or coordinating schedules that fit your needs. This personalized approach ensures you have safe and efficient access to our programs.

Meeting the Needs of Coastal Maine
Our evidence-based programs incorporate individual therapy, group counseling and holistic approaches to address addiction’s many facets. We tailor treatment to serve communities along Maine’s coast, acknowledging the seasonal stressors and close-knit nature of coastal living. By combining clinical expertise with a compassionate, person-centered philosophy, we help residents build healthy coping strategies that align with their everyday realities.
Two Locations for More Options
In addition to our Sanford center, we maintain a treatment facility and recovery housing in Augusta at 90 Western Ave. For those seeking even greater distance from the coast, our Augusta location provides the same high-quality care in a quieter inland setting. Both locations maintain a unified mission: to empower you to break free from substance use and reclaim your life.
