Grace House For Women

About Grace House For Women

You’ll find Grace House for Women in Portland, Maine. Established in 2010, this residential program provides a phased approach for women in early addiction recovery. You’ll benefit from a safe, supportive environment to get away from distractions and hone in on recovery.

Animal Therapy

What stands out most to me is that they offer animal therapy. Their therapeutic dogs named Finn and Mookie provide companionship while promoting compassion, responsibility, and empathy. They also have egg laying hens. You’ll benefit from connecting with animals which can aid in soothing stress, boosting mood, reducing anxiety, and more.

Gender Specific

Another great feature that caught my eye was their gender specific programming. You can access a safe space with tailored interventions for women. You’ll benefit from a welcoming environment to connect with others on similar paths. You can feel comfortable opening up and sharing your story while building a solid recovery network.

Trauma Informed Care

I also like that they provide trauma-informed care. They understand that past traumatic experiences can influence addiction as well as receptiveness to treatment.

Their staff is trained to create emotionally safe environments where you can process these experiences in a judgment free zone. They use this trauma informed framework in all program aspects including structuring services, building trust, and responding to behaviors.

Holistic Therapies

Their holistic therapies also stood out to me. They help you heal your mind, body, and soul with wholesome activities and practices. You’ll be surrounded by nature and enjoy its healing powers while working toward recovery. Meditation, outdoor activities, yoga, fitness, and art are available.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Outpatient

Outpatient rehabs provide a wide range of programs, services, and treatment schedules to accommodate clients' unique and evolving needs. Many outpatient treatment centers offer evening, night, and weekend services to accommodate clients' work and home schedules. Clients in outpatient treatment typically engage in multiple counseling sessions weekly, including group and family therapy. Many facilities also prioritize recovery-focused life skills training to support clients' sustained sobriety and successful community reintegration. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is also prevalent in outpatient care.

Inpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements. Linden Oaks' Residential Stay Program offers additional support for those who may benefit from a structured living environment. A patient's stay may vary from a few days to 30 days ago. The program includes group, family and individual counseling.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Clinical Services

Men and women in Maine who participate in group therapy sessions find it builds a sense of community among the participants. Group therapy is usually facilitated by trained therapists who incorporate evidence based techniques that promote recovery and lasting change.

Individual therapy offers personalized sessions for drug and alcohol addiction treatment to help uncover and address the root causes of addictive behavior. Your therapist will provide individualized, one on one support to help you build resilience and develop healthier habits with a focus on long term sobriety.

The therapist engaged in family therapy work with all family members to understand the impact addiction has had on the family unit and individual members. They help develop collective strategies for recovery and facilitate open discussions to help families build resilience and improve interactions. This helps to support their loved one's path to recovery.
