Maine Suboxone – Enso Recovery features MAT outpatient opioid addiction treatment programs provided by ENSO Recovery in the State of Maine in Augusta and Sanford as well has two MARR Certified MAT friendly Recovery Residences in both Augusta and Sanford. Enso Recovery is the first addiction treatment program to provide medication assisted treatment in the county jails with a full one year treatment continuum including housing post release.
Each treatment facility specializes in medication assisted treatment using Suboxone, buprenorphine, Vivitrol and Naltrexone. We also offer mental health, case management and DEEP services. Our treatment philosophy and policies are rooted in the Harm Reduction Model and our mission embraces a commitment that no one suffering from a substance use disorder will be left behind. We believe that there are Many Paths to Recovery and Many Paths in Recovery and that Medication Status has no correlation with Recovery Capital.
“All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves. We must die to one life before we can enter another”

Hope lies in dreams, in imagination, and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality.
