Tampa Bay Recovery Center

"TBRC is amazing! The entire staff is genuinely kind and caring. Very helpful and knowledgeable. I did not live in the housing, I commuted from home, so I can’t rate them but from what I heard they are very nice and allow for quite a bit of freedom, unlike other residential programs. Their program was exactly what I was hoping it would be and I graduated with all the tools necessary to succeed in my recovery and I know I will never be alone, they will be there to help me. I will miss seeing them on the daily, especially Richie’s smiling face every morning for vitals! Remember, you get what you put into it and it takes time, for time!"

"I went to treatment at tbrc and was in the php program, and I stayed at one of their sober living houses. Upon arrival I was made to feel so welcome by staff members and I was pleasantly suprised at how clean and modern the sober house was. My counselor was amazing and super hands on, everyone went out of their way to make sure my stay was comfortable. I’ve been to many treatment centers and this one was different. I really enjoyed the groups as well as the format. I was able to have my phone and my car as well as have weekend visits with my wife. I would highly recommend this treatment center to anyone so much so that I have since been facilitating the Sunday group meeting and doing service work at tbrc. I would like to mention some people that really made my stay amazing rich the tech and alumni coordinator as well as Josh the house manager, and Nyah who came on around the time I was leaving, and of course my amazing counselor Deborah!"

"I loved my time here. The staff was great, especially my therapist. Very nice housing and solid, productive groups. I have been to other programs but got the most out of my time at TBRC."

"We were given the name of this facility because of their high ratings, but I have very little good to say. Our 25 year old granddaughter was referred here. The people seemed friendly and attentive, and she seemed to like it. Then, she was given a medication which interfered with another one, and it gave her terrible cravings. She called and complained to me one morning, but later that morning I received a call that that she had left with another patient and had relapsed. They didn't know where she was. We are not from the area, so we were terrified. She finally contacted us, and was put back into detox for about a week. It turned out the medical staff did not wait to see what was in her system before administering the the new drug. That was strike one. She was "accepted" back (because they screwed up) and was great for a few days until she missed her 8 pm curfew by 15 minutes because she had been to a AA meeting that ended at 8. She was given a warning. A day or two later she was accused of kissing a fellow male patient. Within the hour, she was told she was leaving, they got her an Uber, and she was shipped off to another facility. Her friends and fellow patients were not allowed to go near her. I was told that male and female patients were not allowed to fraternize, but while delivering some groceries one day, I personally observed male and female patients going in and out of each others residences. My granddaughter told me that one of the techs had it in for her from the beginning, and it was even brought up in group by some of the other female patients. That was strike two. Strike three came when I heard they let another young woman go, also from out of state, at 10pm on a Sunday night! No one has heard from her since. My granddaughter was doing well, and since she was evicted, it has been a struggle to find another facility that could take her and that met her needs. She has spoken to some of the current patients, and was told the staff has been talking about her and how she has relapsed (which she hasn't). It's sad that these young people, who are in a fragile state as it is, are thrown to the curb like yesterday's garbage. I would NOT recommend this facility to anyone."

"Tampa Bay Recovery Center changed my life! Before coming here, I was lost and had no positive outlook on life. Not only did the wonderful staff help with my sobriety, they also helped me gain the mindset and knowledge to live my life to my fullest potential! Isabella was the best therapist I’ve ever had and her challenges helped me gain the confidence, reassurance, and validity that was absent before I had arrived at TBRC. I was presented with so many struggles that I had avoided during active addiction and I cannot thank the staff and community enough for their support and insight to overcome these situations. I would definitely recommend coming here for anyone seeking treatment as they are very accommodating and accepting to specific needs."
