Cornerstones of Maine is a clinician-founded transitional living and residential treatment program located in Biddeford, Maine. The program is designed to support young adults aged 18 to 30 who are navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, executive functioning difficulties, and their transition to independence. The program emphasizes a therapeutic community model, blending clinical care with real-world experiences to support personal growth and autonomy. Cornerstones offers a continuum of care that includes short-term residential treatment for mental health stabilization, transitional living programs focusing on life skills and academic or vocational guidance, and aftercare support to assist with independent living. Their approach incorporates various evidence-based therapeutic modalities, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), tailored to each individual's needs. Additionally, they provide a neurodivergent-affirming track, Rubedo, specifically designed for young adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and ADHD, offering specialized support in a dedicated space. The program's holistic approach goes beyond traditional therapy, encompassing executive functioning coaching, academic and career support, and life skills development. Clients engage in daily activities such as meal planning, budgeting, and community involvement, all within a caring environment that encourages independence. By combining clinical excellence with experiential opportunities, Cornerstones of Maine aims to equip young adults with the tools and confidence necessary to lead fulfilling, autonomous lives.
