“This place is great!!! The have amazing staff, amazing chiefs, amazing groups and amazing therapists, amazing medical staff and amazing case managers. Look truthfully if you’re willing to change your life and get sober you need to be involved and let your higher power guide you. I have nothing negative to say about this place. They helped me through things I didn’t think I could move forward. Give yourself a chance and give them a chance you will never regret coming here cause I know I haven’t.”

“Greetings all, and fellow Humans seeking spiritual growth! My experience with Guardian Recovery has been a most valuable investment in myself. From day one I was met with kind, caring staff who truly cared. I felt seen and understood by others willing to guide me with suggestions based on their own failures and successes. I was encouraged to and learned how to value myself with grace. It has been an amazing experience in the 6 month program at Southern Maine Recovery. They guided me into the next chapter of my journey and have taught me the tools to continue with my recovery. The way they care for and present their facilities shows how much they are invested in the welfare of our community. 5 stars to Guardian and Southern Maine Recovery! It's there if you seek it. Sincerely, Jeremiah C.”

“Guardian recovery has been amazing from start to finish! Great greeting that made me feel welcome and unafraid about coming to the facility. Taken care of extremely well by the staff also including medical/nursing and day to day technicians that helped with all needs. I highly recommend this place for a new start for anyone needing rehabilitation treatment. Also the food is amazing!”

“Pine Tree Recovery is the first detox I’ve been to and has set the bar high for any kind of hospitalizations. Staff aid you through the worst of withdrawals and treats their patients like adults. The atmosphere is very calm and welcoming and the food is fantastic. I would recommend PTR to anyone struggling with alcohol and any other addictions.”

“I recently began the IOP program at Guardian Recovery, and on my very first day Marta was the group facilitator. From that moment forward, group with her has been truly eye‑opening. She has a unique way of asking questions that makes you dig deep, recognize your triggers, and explore feelings you didn’t even realize you had been repressing for years. The exercises she guides us through have helped me turn one of the worst situations in my life into something I can finally see in a positive light. Marta has also taught me how to communicate more effectively with the people around me (especially those who tend to trigger me) and that has already made a huge difference in my daily life. Her insight, compassion, and ability to help us grow are remarkable. I’m genuinely grateful for the impact she’s had on my recovery journey. Guardian Recovery is fortunate to have someone like her.”
