Conditions We Treat

Find Help for What You’re Facing Right Now

Alcohol Abuse

What starts as social drinking can quietly become dependence. If you’re drinking to cope, hiding your consumption, or can’t stop despite consequences, you’re not alone—and help is available.

Depression

More than just sadness, clinical depression affects your energy, sleep, appetite, and will to live. Our evidence-based therapies and psychiatric support help lift the weight and restore hope.

Kratom Abuse

Often marketed as “natural” and “safe,” kratom can lead to serious dependence and withdrawal. Our team understands this emerging issue and provides specialized care for lasting recovery.

Co-Occurring Disorders (Dual Diagnosis)

Addiction and mental health conditions often fuel each other. Our integrated dual diagnosis treatment addresses both simultaneously—because you can’t fully heal one without treating the other.

Anxiety

Constant worry, panic attacks, and overwhelming fear don’t have to control your life. Through therapy, coping skills, and medical support when needed, you can find calm and confidence again.

Marijuana Dependence

Despite common myths, marijuana dependence is real. If cannabis controls your daily routine, impacts your motivation, or you can’t quit despite wanting to, specialized treatment can help you regain control.

Opioid Addiction

Whether it’s prescription painkillers or illicit drugs, opioid dependence is powerful and dangerous. Our medically-supervised treatment provides guidance to a safe detox and comprehensive support to break the cycle.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot thank TBRC enough. The entire staff and team dedicate themselves above and behind to support the clients on their journey to recovery! You can tell they take helping others seriously and they love what they do. This is the first recovery center I have been where i have felt confident and secure in my safety and recovery. No matter the concern the team no matter who it is will go out of their way to take care of it. They are always there to comfort and listen to my worries, my stress and answer any questions. The center and houses are immaculate and they go out of their way to provide a clean and comfortable environment. Because of TBRC I finally feel comfortable and motivated to change my life. TBRC opened my eyes and has held me accountable to help me with my recovery. This place will always have a very special place in my heart. To anyone considering treatment...I absolutely recommend Tampa Bay Recovery Center! - much love, Kylie.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would give it a five star but nothing is perfect, not even me. I am winding down here after successfully completing a inpatient treatment center and stepping down to this PHP. The executive director Kiersan is what I would call "top of the game" in his role here. He is so good at what he does that i I never knew he was the "boss" until my house mate told me. Some ppl are born to do things in life and some are not . He was born to be the executive director.  He is that 👍 good. 95% of the staff from clinical to the techs are just as good. They genuinely care for the clients. Now don't take gushing of praise as if there are no cons. There is . And I will say as follows. There are a couple of staff that are just the most unprofessional ppl in any business I have encountered.  They have the personality of lemon . And just turns you off from the time you lay eyes on them , or at least they did me. They have bad bad aura about them and horrible spirit and energy. And as time progressed I UNDERSTAND WHY. Overall of you really want to learn how to stay clean and sober or you have a loved one that you would want the best for in this situation TBRC is the place. I dont post lightly either. I have and will continue to gain their knowledge to continue and trudge the road into my destiny Kind regards Joey

Common Questions

How Long Is Your Treatment Program?

Treatment length varies based on your individual needs and progress. Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) typically runs 2-4 weeks with 30+ hours of treatment per week.

Intensive Outpatient (IOP) programs generally last 6-12 weeks at 9-12 hours per week.

Virtual IOP follows the same timeline. Many clients transition between levels of care as they progress—starting with PHP and stepping down to IOP, then to ongoing outpatient therapy.

During your initial assessment, our clinical team will recommend the appropriate length and level of care for your specific situation. Remember: recovery is a journey, not a destination, and we’ll adjust your treatment plan as your needs change.

Do You Offer Residential Treatment?

We don’t operate residential inpatient facilities, but we specialize in intensive outpatient programs that often serve as excellent alternatives or next steps.

Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) provides nearly the same level of clinical intensity as residential care—you just go home or a sober living home each night. For clients who need residential treatment first, we have trusted partner facilities we can refer you to, and we’re happy to provide seamless transitions into our outpatient programs when you’re ready.

We also offer structured sober living homes for those who need a safe, supportive environment during treatment or after completing a residential program. Our admissions team can assess your needs and connect you with the right level of care, whether that’s with us or through our network of partners.

What Insurances Do You Accept?

We accept most major insurance plans including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, United Healthcare, Beacon, Humana, and many others.

Every insurance policy is different, so we verify your specific coverage before you start treatment. Our admissions team will contact your insurance company, determine what’s covered, explain your copay or deductible, and break down any out-of-pocket costs in plain language.

We also offer flexible payment plans and financing options for those without insurance or with high deductibles. Don’t let insurance confusion stop you from getting help—we handle the complicated parts so you can focus on recovery.

What Is A Typical Day Like In Treatment?

Your daily schedule depends on which program you’re in. In our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), you’ll attend treatment Monday through Saturday from approximately 9am to 3pm.

Days include individual therapy sessions, process groups, psychoeducation classes, skills training (like CBT and DBT), psychiatric appointments when needed, and lunch. In our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), you’ll attend 3-4 days per week for 3-hour blocks, either in the morning or evening. Sessions include group therapy, relapse prevention work, peer support, and individual counseling.

Our Virtual IOP follows the same structure as in-person IOP, just via secure video. All programs include time for goal-setting, homework review, and building your recovery action plan. The atmosphere is supportive, structured, and focused on giving you practical tools you can use immediately.

Can My Family Be Part Of The Process?

Absolutely. Addiction affects the whole family, and family involvement often strengthens recovery outcomes.

We offer family therapy sessions where your loved ones can participate in your treatment, learn about addiction and recovery, address family dynamics, and heal relationships. We also provide family education workshops that help your support system understand what you’re going through and how they can best support your journey.

For those in our programs, we encourage family visits and involvement at appropriate stages of treatment. We can also connect your family members with their own support resources, like Al-Anon or family support groups. The level of family involvement is always your choice, and we’ll work with you to determine what’s most helpful for your specific situation.
