About Dirigo Counseling Clinic – Bangor
Dirigo Counseling Clinic helps folks who have substance use and mental health disorders. They offer counseling and treatment. Some people need evaluations for legal reasons, work, or personal matters. You’ll find ’em located out in suburban Ellsworth, Maine.
The clinic has trained over 30 professionals. They offer different levels of treatment, depending on what each person needs. They also use tests to check progress and work with doctors when medication is needed.
I think it’s cool that Ellsworth can supplement your recovery with some local attractions around the clinic. The center’s not too far from Hayford Park and a skate park. The historic district is also within driving distance.
People can get individual counseling or small group support. If a client is charged with an OUI in Maine, they can get the required assessment and treatment here.
If you can’t stay overnight in treatment centers, there’s intensive outpatient (IOP) care. It requires at least nine hours each week and lets you keep up with work and daily life.
They also help with mental health. Life can be hard and sometimes people need someone to talk to about family problems and stress. Sessions usually last an hour and can be once a week or every other week.
The clinic accepts insurance and has lower cost options for folks paying on their own. Sometimes, they can even help with costs through grants or interns in training.
