About Turning Point Treatment Center
Turning Point Treatment Center was a drug rehab facility located in Franklin, Pennsylvania. They served men and women who were struggling with substance use, and they had experience helping those who’ve relapsed or struggled with their sobriety overall. Due to several factors the Turning Point Treatment Center permanently closed its doors in December 2020.
This beautiful building dates back to the 1890s as it was originally the home of a successful lumber baron. Today, the historical charm of the home remains intact but now serves as a residential space for men and women who are working toward their sobriety. They also offer detox support, and there’s an outpatient clinic located on campus as well.
Calming Recovery Environment
Situated on 24 wooded acres that overlook the Allegheny River, this was a beautiful, calming and tranquil environment for you to work through your addiction struggles. Clients enjoyed luxury amenities including spacious living rooms, open community spaces and beautiful walking grounds.
Long Term Residential Care
Turning Point Treatment Center specialized in working with individuals who had complex substance use disorders including addictions to opioids and other chemicals. They had a long term recovery program that spanned anywhere from 90 to 120 days.
If you were someone who struggled with their sobriety, has relapsed, or needed more intentional care, this program would have helped you. It was thoughtfully structured but incorporated plenty of ways for you to develop your independence while learning the skills to remain sober. Some of the resources to help you support your independence included classes to complete your GED, vocational skills development and other life skills supports.
Latest Reviews
It's been 19 years since I was at Turning Point and since it was one of many times I tried getting sober I had no hopes of it working but it did! I don't know how I was lucky enough to get in but it saved my life. What a difference between TP and Gaudenzia house,former Crossroads in Erie Pa! They run that place like a prison. I would NEVER recommend Guadenzia! Turning Point did all the right things to keep me sober. They actually took the time to teach you about your addiction. Everything down to councilors that actually cared and did a great job!
HORRIBLE ATMOSPHERE. So unprofessional & dirty.
NO COVID precautions what so ever, they don t care about there clients or employees. Please don t leave your loved ones in the poor care of this place. Management here is a joke with the nursing director being the biggest clown of them all. I d consider anywhere except this facility.

Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Outpatient Outpatient rehabs specialize in providing comprehensive care for clients who choose to remain in their homes and communities during treatment. Their services may include transitional support for clients stepping down from intensive inpatient programming. Ambulatory medical detox may be provided for clients at low risk for withdrawal complications. Many programs include evening, night, and weekend services to accommodate clients who are working professionals or caregivers. Addiction counseling and life skills training are common treatment modalities.
Inpatient Inpatient rehab provides clients with an opportunity to focus solely on their sobriety away from the stressors of the home and workplace. Clients receive housing, food, and intensive clinical supervision. They also typically engage in multiple addiction counseling sessions each week, including daily individual, group, and/or family sessions. Most programs also prioritize recovery-focused life skills training, including courses in relapse prevention. Many facilities offer evidence-based holistic therapies, such as yoga and meditation.
Intensive Outpatient Clients engaged in intensive outpatient programs (IOP) live and work in their home community while receiving frequent, high-level care. These programs offer personalized care designed to evolve with the clients' changing needs. Many intensive outpatient rehabs require a minimum of nine hours of treatment per week, but high-risk clients and those in early recovery may receive up to 20 hours of care weekly. IOP services generally include addiction counseling, recovery education, and holistic therapies, such as massage.
Aftercare Support Clients receiving services from a rehab aftercare program are usually stable and in the maintenance phase of recovery, having completed detox and/or intensive inpatient treatment. Rehab aftercare services can vary widely based on clients' individual and evolving needs, but often include peer coaching, relapse prevention support, 12 step program induction, and medical, mental health, and social service referrals. Individual care plans are typically developed by the client in partnership with their case manager and care team.
12-Step 12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Clients are encouraged to obtain a local sponsor with whom they can attend Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA) meetings in the community, participate in sober activities sponsored by various groups, and seek recreational activities consistent with sober living.
Partial Hospitalization Program With a partial hospitalization program (PHP), you can participate in intensive rehabilitation treatment with the ability to return home at the end of the day. For a weekly minimum of 20 hours, a partial hospitalization program can take place up to 5 days a week for an average of 90 days. During PHP treatment, you can receive relapse prevention strategies, medication management, individual and group therapy, and other behavioral therapy interventions.
Medically Assisted Detox Detoxification is necessary when an individual shows the potential for serious symptoms of withdrawal. Medically monitored detoxification can relieve withdrawal symptoms and ensure a safe detox allowing the client to enter treatment without fear of further withdrawal. Suboxone® is available for detox from heroin and other opiates when appropriate. The length of stay in their detox unit is generally four days. During the detox period, clients begin the assessment and treatment process and transition to continued participation in the short-term treatment program.
Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone.

Programs

From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Clinical Services
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.
Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
