Integrated Care for Substance Use and Mental Health

Tampa Bay Recovery Center supports adults living with both substance use and mental health challenges. Programs are available at multiple levels of care, including partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and outpatient treatment. This flexibility allows individuals to step into care at the level that fits their needs while progressing toward greater independence in recovery.

Evidence-Based and Holistic Therapies

The center blends traditional and innovative approaches. Alongside cognitive and behavioral therapies (CBT), clients can access trauma-focused care such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) and brainspotting. Medications for addiction treatment (MAT) are available when appropriate, and complementary therapies like neurofeedback, red light therapy, yoga, and mindfulness practices provide additional support for physical and emotional healing.

A Boutique Setting Near the Coast

Designed to feel personal and welcoming rather than clinical, the facility offers a boutique treatment environment. Programs typically range from 60 to 90 days, with treatment plans shaped to each person’s needs. With a smaller client capacity, the center emphasizes individualized attention and a supportive environment that fosters connection and growth. Proximity to local 12-Step meetings and other peer support options allows clients to stay engaged in recovery while benefiting from the area’s cultural surroundings.

Mental Health Focus

Treatment is not limited to substance use alone. The center addresses co-occurring conditions including anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), bipolar disorder, ADHD, and personality disorders. This integrated approach helps clients build healthier coping skills and strengthens long-term stability beyond treatment.
