About Borden Cottage

A haven of luxury and privacy on the coast of Maine, Borden Cottage provides unparalleled residential treatment for substance use and co-occurring disorders. With only 8 clients at a time, their intimate setting enables their expert team to highly personalize care that blends evidence-based therapies, holistic practices, and neuropsychological insights to guide private-pay clients toward lasting recovery.
Borden Cottage crafts individualized treatment programs that combine clinical expertise, evidence-based therapies, and holistic care. Neuropsychological testing and frequent meetings with the care team help tailor each client’s blend of individual and group therapies, medication, and wellness activities like yoga, tai chi, and personal training. Clients engage in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), mindfulness, art therapy, and recovery support groups.
Set atop 14 secluded acres, Borden Cottage blends turn-of-the-century elegance with modern luxury. Clients stay in private, fully appointed rooms with en suite baths within the main house or guest cottages. The estate features a luxurious wellness facility, pool, theater, billiards, and a bowling alley. An in-house chef prepares gourmet meals using local, seasonal ingredients, served in the communal dining room, a restored 1950s diner, or on the ocean-facing deck.
Borden Cottage offers a seamless continuum of care to support lasting sobriety. They connect clients with essential resources for a smooth transition after treatment, helping clients find therapy, sober coaching, case management, and more. Their alumni program is a community designed to provide ongoing support through a strong peer network grounded in shared experiences.

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Borden Cottage provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)

Understanding Your Treatment Options

Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.

Borden Cottage offers 2 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.

The facility utilizes 9 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.

Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, most commercial insurance plans are required to cover substance abuse treatment. Borden Cottage works with 24 insurance providers. Call (833) 567-5838 to verify your specific coverage and learn about out-of-pocket costs before admission.
