My husbands therapist definitely dropped the ball. My husband expressed his worry that he was not ready to face his mental health and sobriety at home and asked for extra time.... The therapist said she didn't recommend it. My husband came home and went to a in person AA meeting every day for over two months. He also tried to meet with his sponsor he got from turning point. They made plans. He showed up his sponsor didn't. The sponsor took all day to finally respond. And when he responded he said he went to Africa and joked like it was no big deal my husband went to meet him and got stood up. I

I love this place. It literally saved my life. The protocols that are in place make recovery possible if you are willing to work the steps and follow direction. I recommend Turning Point to anyone seeking sound treatment with consistent protocols geared for recovery. Staff is amazing and are truly concerned with your well being and success. I will always recommend Turning Point. Almost 2 years sober and loving my life and my sobriety.

Turning Point of Tampa saved my life! Before I came to Turning Point I was binging on large amounts of food every night, taking my medications only sporadically and not sleeping. My therapist and psychiatrist at Turning Point reminded me that I could not speak a full sentence when I first arrived. I was warned before I came to TPOT (short for Turning Point of Tampa, here after, in this review, I will be using it instead of Turning Point of Tampa at times), that it was like boot camp: well I needed a good boot! Yes, TPOT is very structured and that structure laid the foundation for the Recovery

All the staff was kind and professional to me. At the Eating Disorders house, the Eating Disorders clients ate all meals together. Jon, the Eating Disorders Therapist would visit the the Eating Disorders house at breakfast to motivate and encourage us clients. This visitation was such a nice blessing to begin our day.

Turning Point is the reason I have a life today - both literally and figuratively. From the therapists to the house managers to maintenance, the staff was always kind and supportive. Would recommend.
