Carolyn Curtis LCSW LADC

The outpatient program at Carolyn Curtis LCSW LADC provides structured substance abuse treatment for adults while allowing them to maintain their daily responsibilities. This approach works particularly well for individuals who have completed residential treatment and need ongoing recovery support, or those whose circumstances require flexible scheduling options. The program addresses substance use disorders through regular therapeutic sessions that can be coordinated around work and family commitments.

Outpatient treatment serves as either a primary intervention for those ready to begin recovery while living at home, or as a step-down service following more intensive care. The consistent Monday through Friday availability creates a reliable framework for recovery while preserving the client's connection to their recovery community and support systems outside of treatment.

The practice specializes in treating co-occurring disorders, recognizing that many individuals in recovery also manage mental health conditions that require simultaneous attention. Carolyn Curtis's dual licensing as both a clinical social worker and addiction counselor allows for integrated treatment that addresses both substance use and underlying mental health concerns within a unified approach.

This dual diagnosis focus proves essential for clients whose addiction developed alongside or as a result of depression, anxiety, trauma, or other mental health conditions. Rather than treating these issues separately, the integrated model helps clients understand and manage the connections between their mental health and substance use patterns.

Carolyn Curtis holds both Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Alcohol & Drug Counselor (LADC) credentials, providing a comprehensive clinical foundation for addiction treatment. The LCSW background brings expertise in mental health assessment, therapy techniques, and psychosocial interventions, while the LADC certification demonstrates specialized training in addiction counseling and substance abuse treatment methodologies.

This combination of licenses allows the practice to address the full spectrum of issues that adults face during recovery, from immediate addiction concerns to longer-term mental health and social functioning goals. Clients benefit from working with a provider who understands both the clinical aspects of addiction and the broader life circumstances that support successful long-term recovery.

Located in downtown Kennebunk at 11 Main Street, the practice serves adults throughout York County and Southern Maine who need accessible outpatient addiction treatment. The central location provides convenient access for residents of surrounding communities while maintaining the privacy and comfort of a smaller practice setting.

The Monday through Friday operating schedule accommodates working professionals and others who need consistent but flexible treatment options. This scheduling approach supports clients who are building or maintaining careers while working on their recovery, or those transitioning back to full-time employment as part of their longer-term recovery goals.
