Individualized Counseling Therapy
These sessions between a client and trained therapist, takes place in a safe, caring, and confidential environment. These sessions are offered weekly but can also be arranged anytime outside normal schedule depending on the need of the client. It is a process by which a patient is guided, supported and directed by a therapist as client develops personal strategies and plans the course and expectation of treatment goals. It is designed to help the patients build commitment throughout the process of behavior and attitude modification.
Group Therapy
This is psychotherapy that involves open discussion with individuals who face similar concerns. The group therapies are designed to promote positive lifestyle change through peer reinforcement, behavioral modification, mutual support and respect.
We provide excellent psycho education and health care services.
Our group therapy capitalizes on the social reinforcement offered by peer discussions to help individuals to promote drug-free lifestyles. Research has shown that when group therapy is offered in conjunction with individualized counseling, positive outcomes are achieved. A daily evening clients’ meeting is held under the supervision of a counselor which focus on the issues facing them as a group as they journey towards recovery. Clients also meet to discuss the problems affecting the day to day functioning of the community, relapses and other infractions.
Family Therapy
Family therapy sessions are occasions to counsel the whole family and get an in-depth understanding of their family member's addiction and how to treat it.It educates family members about substance abuse by offering support to the individual, thus improving communication and resolving conflicts. At Turning Point we involve the family intensively in our treatment programs and discuss the issues surrounding addiction to alcohol and drugs that arise within the addict's family.

Through sharing they develop hope by realizing that they are not alone, they are unique and not terrible but that they are experiencing the consequences of an illness. They find they can share about their hopes, dreams, pains and struggles with a supportive person. It is one of the effective aspects of this treatment approach.
