“This is my first time here at this facility and the staff from day one has been amazing and very caring. I have never been so comfortable and reassuring of my safety here with these kind individuals. The place is very clean and everyone is so friendly. And the food is absolutely amazing. Like some other places you go to they just treat you like a patient and don't even know your name. But they call you by your name like they care and grown to know you. I would recommend this place to anyone that is dealing with any addiction issues. I am very grateful for everyone that has helped me on my recovery.”

“This was my first residential rehabilitation center and I must say this place saved and changed my life forever! Guardian Recovery is not just a rehab but now my extended family from the techs led by Mark and his crew Ms. Tasha, Colton, Justin, Sed, Carli, Eva, Jet, Dakota & Kevin were a big part of the glue for me, chef Shon and her wonderful spirit, love for making sure she put so much love in every meal. We were never hungry that’s for sure and her wonder team Ms. Peaceful & LF. Ms. Natasha nursing team were ROCK STARS! Zoie, LaRhona, Mr. Rhonda, MJ, Casey, Kenny, Ms.Tonya, Amanda, Dominique, Ms.Susan, Ricky and Joana kept me level in during my many changes. Dr. Taylor is a great leader with my personal bias for Gabbi the Great she always HEARD ME and her wealth of knowledge in the mental education field is mind blowing Gabbi truly helped me through some rough times & DB always was one of my best cheerleaders and was a joy to talk to. Ms Brittany didn’t miss a beat and ensured I kept my job lol and got plenty of Amazon orders done. The maintenance man Thalas not only stayed on top of any concerns outside the property but he was true maintenance on the heart and kindness he always showed. The cleaning crew had the place cleaner than a hospital everyday from keeping it spotless, doing our laundry, folding clothes and keeping our rooms clean and beds made just floored me. I’d have to say the overall leadership of Scott and his immediate direct reports worked as a teams and didn’t lag their feet on what was important to us as a community. I truly enjoyed the daily group sessions, H&I meetings, engagement, welcomeness of everyone down to my peers going through recovery. If you are serious about getting clean look no further. My last day was 6/21/26 and my life has been so much better. I’ll forever be grateful for the “Guardian Angels”. I will always share why Guardian Recovery meant so much to me and my recovery.”

“My experience at CuraWest during their 30-day residential program was truly life-changing. I came in seeking help with recovery, therapy, medication management, and addiction treatment, and I am leaving with a completely new outlook and the tools I need to continue building a healthy life. One of the most powerful aspects of CuraWest is the staff. The Behavioral Technicians are incredible, and what makes them especially impactful is that many of them are in recovery themselves. The same is true for the therapists, case managers, and even a large portion of the nursing staff. Because they have lived through the same struggles, they genuinely understand what clients are going through. Their empathy, patience, and guidance made it easier to open up and truly engage in the recovery process. The case managers and therapists helped me develop real tools for long-term recovery, not just temporary solutions. Their support and honesty made a huge difference in my progress. I also want to thank the chefs, DJ and Tyler. They made every meal welcoming and positive, and their friendliness helped create a sense of community that made the environment feel supportive and comfortable. The facility itself is excellent. The rooms are comfortable with 50-inch TVs and quality bedding, which helps make the stay feel more like a place of healing than a clinical environment. There are separate lounges for detox and residential clients, including areas to relax and unwind with things like ping pong tables and comfortable spaces to decompress. Most importantly, I’m leaving CuraWest feeling like a new person. The program gave me the tools, support, and perspective I needed to continue my recovery journey with confidence. I am deeply grateful to the entire team at CuraWest for their dedication, compassion, and commitment to helping people rebuild their lives.”

Victor G. CuraWest · 7 months ago

“This place is a dream destination. The staff is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and supportive. Since day one they made me feel comfortable. Starting out with a workout, which is great for your body and health. Then the yoga and meditation is essential for your mind, body and soul. After that, we go into a group session where we discuss what’s happening in our lives and learn about new techniques to improve ourselves. We also have a one on one session, which has been delightful learning about myself and again finding new ways to improve myself without using any substance. This program has changed my life for the better and I will never forget it. Thank you so much for the support and encouragement.”

“Soarfit is saving my life- literally. The whole person approach of the mind, body and soul is exactly what works. The fitness center is top notch and the yoga/meditation room is perfect. During psychoeducation, there is so much education and community support. New Pathways as a whole goes above and beyond for their clients. The community is supportive yet holds everyone equally accountable. I am so thankful I found this program.”

“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.”
