Our Approach

Our Approach

We understand that addiction and mental health illness impact individuals differently.

Our Addiction Program is Different than a Traditional 12-Step Program

Our compassionate team treats addiction as a chronic, progressive disease. And because our team understands that addiction is a disease that impacts individuals differently, we provide a variety of Behavioral Therapies and Medication-Assisted Treatment options when appropriate.

At Turning Point Centers, we provide an integrated system of care that utilizes best clinical and medical practices, comprehensive patient measurement and engagement tools, and systems that ensure everyone receives a complete, individualized course of treatment.

Physician-Directed Care

We provide Physician-Directed treatment along a continuum of care including residential treatment, day treatment, intensive and general outpatient, sober living, and a lifetime of aftercare. The role of the physician is to assess for any medical needs that should be incorporated into treatment, provide medically-assisted treatment interventions, monitor the patient during the phases of treatment, monitor co-occurring conditions, and become the long-term source of assistance to maintain a patient’s recovery. This does not mean that our entirety of care is primarily provided by a physician, but that a physician assumes the responsibility for directing the patient through the entirety of the treatment process.

Non-12-Step Approach

Our program is different than a traditional 12-step treatment program. We provide an integrated system of care that utilizes best clinical and medical practices, comprehensive patient measurement and engagement tools, and systems that ensure each individual receives a complete, individualized course of treatment. Because we see addiction as a multi-faceted disease that impacts different aspects of an individual’s well-being, we provide a variety of behavioral therapies, physician-directed care, and Medication-Assisted Treatment when clinically indicated. This combination is more effective than any single non-12-step approach.

As we work with individuals in the process of recovery, we keep in mind the ultimate goal is not abstinence. In fact, abstinence is only the first step to stabilize the brain and start the process of healing. Once stabilized, we help the individual work toward the goal of preventing relapse.

We Want To Help

Family Therapy

We have found family group sessions are beneficial for both individuals in treatment and their loved ones. As ongoing family therapy sessions occur, relationships improve, safety is created, judgments are cast aside, and individuals and families are more willing to work together helping support and maintain recovery. While in treatment, individuals participate in both weekly individual and family therapy sessions.
Individuals and their families work with our therapists to:

Identify and change maladaptive behaviors that have supported addiction
Learn effective ways to support each other during and after recovery
Help family members find ways to forgive, trust, and heal from the negative impact of the addiction

Our family therapy sessions also include weekly psycho-education groups, led by clinicians, where individuals and their families learn more on topics such as:

Understanding addiction as a chronic, progressive, brain disease and the need for a holistic treatment
The importance of self-care, positive rewards and the value of a support community on the road to recovery
Choice, accountability and stages of change
Understanding addiction as a family disease; understanding addiction’s effects on different family members as well as on the family dynamics, structure, roles and boundaries
Creating a safe family environment for all
Effective tools for the whole family to cope with addiction
Celebrating and maintaining recovery
