About River Oaks Treatment Center

River Oaks Treatment Center is a drug rehab facility in Tampa, Florida. They have several programs for adults that include detox, inpatient, and outpatient programs. Rehab.com has some positive reviews about their staff, and their programs are accredited by The Joint Commission.

Their program can last as short as 7 days to more than 60 days. It starts with detox, where you’ll be in the Riverview facility, a short distance from the main center in Tampa. There’s medication assisted treatment to help with opioid or alcohol cravings, which reduces the chance of relapse during treatment.

The inpatient program has customized treatment plans for each client. You’ll have a variety of group and individual therapy sessions. There’s also art, music, recreational, and even exercise activities to strengthen your body and mind. There are also the traditional 12 Step programs and educational workshops.

After your inpatient care ends, you can descale to partial hospitalization, which is a day program that requires 3 hours per weekday. There’s also an intensive outpatient program that meets three hours per day, three days per week, including evenings and online.

There’re also dedicated support tracks for veterans, the LGBTQ+ community, professionals, and first responders. That way, you’ll get the treatment that best fits your needs, and you’ll be with your peers for support.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

inpatient iconInpatient

InRiver Oaks' Residential Treatment (RT) program, the client resides at our facility and receives 24/7 staff supervision. The client participates in his or her treatment plan of individual therapy, group sessions, addiction therapy groups, and other therapeutic activities.

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

aftercare iconAftercare Support

Before graduating from treatment, it’s important for the client to have his or her aftercare program in place. The reason River Oaks stresses the importance of aftercare plans from day one is that an effective aftercare plan can make or break the client’s chances for long-term sobriety, particularly in the initial period following graduation. A comprehensive aftercare plan can be beneficial for all areas of the client’s life after treatment. During treatment the client can work with the clinical team to talk about the need for continued care after graduation. Is it necessary to check in with a psychiatrist or therapist periodically? If the therapist makes this recommendation, then local providers in the community can be set up prior to graduation. Gathering contacts and resources builds a strong foundation of recovery resources for reintegrating into a drug-free life. They encourage their graduates to stay in touch with fellow Rivers Oaks alumni, participate in AAC Alumni activities, and attend 12-Step or other recovery support groups for fellowship.

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

The Medical Detox level of care allows River Oaks' licensed medical team to safely monitor 24/7 the client’s symptoms during the withdrawal period which usually lasts 5-7 days. The client resides in a quiet section within the residential area that is located in close proximity to the nurse’s station. All members of the medical team are experienced in wide-ranging withdrawal symptoms and understand the associated requirements. After the client safely completes detox and is evaluated by the interdisciplinary treatment team, he or she begins the appropriate course of treatment.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

In River Oaks' IOP program, the client requires less supervision than the PHP program but makes the commitment to participate in a structured treatment schedule. The IOP client attends therapy and programming 3-7 days per week, according to the individualized treatment plan. Therapy is provided in treatment blocks of a minimum of 3 hours in duration. At this care level, the client works on fine-tuning his or her early recovery and aftercare plan and becomes involved with the local sober community.

partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program

Often referred to as "day treatment," a partial hospitalization program (PHP) offers an intensive treatment option that allows individuals to return home at night. PHP treatment typically requires a minimum of 20 hours a week for an average of 90 days. Participants attend daily therapeutic sessions, receive medication management, and have access to skilled medical professionals. While costs can vary, most insurance will fully or partially cover a partial hospitalization program.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

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. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

Drug rehab in Florida provides quality treatment to help individuals overcome dependency related to a wide range of addictive substances. Programs address both the physical and mental aspects of addiction in order to help you make a full recovery.

check iconDual Diagnosis

Substance abuse and co-occurring mental health disorders often go hand in hand and many of our clients are facing not only the struggles of their addiction, but the difficulties in managing behavioral health issues. Just focusing on the addiction does not increase the odds for long-term recovery. By simultaneously addressing the addiction and behavioral health, River Oaks can help the client with an aftercare plan that includes strategies for managing the co-occurring disorder in recovery. River Oaks addresses addiction plus co-occurring mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and PTSD. Because a co-occurring condition may impact an individual’s recovery, our dual diagnosis approach to treatment, may help the individual develop strategies to manage the disorder and avoid situations that may lead to relapse.

mental-health iconMental Health and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

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. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

River Oaks' therapists work with clients using CBT techniques that are goal-directed and solution-focused. CBT allows the therapist to work with the client and examine how negative thought patterns and feelings affect or drive unhealthy behavior, such as substance abuse. One goal of CBT is to help the client eliminate or phase out unhealthy thinking that may drive self-destructive behaviors and replace it with healthy, rational thought patterns.

family iconFamily Therapy

Addiction affects all members and loved one’s of the client’s family. During treatment, the client faces difficult challenges of rehabilitation and personal change, so support from the family, loved ones, and spouse/partner is critical. With the client’s consent, to help reinforce the client’s motivation and resolve, they encourage participation in family therapy sessions. During the program stay, sharing with loved ones can support, reinforce, and strengthen post-treatment recovery efforts. All persons influential in the client’s recovery and aftercare are invited to attend onsite or via conference calls.

eye-movement iconEye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

Besides EMDR’s effectiveness in treating addiction and co-occurring disorders it benefits individuals with significant trauma-exposure by aiding in symptom reduction and improving emotional stability. EMDR may be clinically appropriate for the client with PTSD or a personal history of sexual assault, wartime violence, natural disasters, domestic violence, or other traumatic life events.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

Most individuals who struggle with addiction are aware that their harmful behavior is dangerous but continue the substance abuse nonetheless. This ambivalence is normal. To assist in changing dangerous behaviors such as drug or alcohol abuse, Motivational Interviewing can help the client move from ambivalent feelings about addiction and/or treatment to a state of genuine desire for change and readiness for treatment.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

Some TA s and nurses are great, some are terrible. Shana is one of the best TA s you will have during detox. Tasha is a great nurse. Tajae and Big E are good TA s. Both Brittany s are good nurses. You really do get what you put in here.

Overall, a good place. Recovery always is what an individual will make of it. Great therapists, wonderful smaller classes as well. Ian for DBT group was wonderful, Karah led multiple womens and LGBT+ group which was very insightful, Andrea for grief and Olivia, Tiffany, and Lauren were also great group therapists. Brian as an individual therapist was amazing, a 10/10. The doctor staff including Dr. Fozz and Dr. Levony were part of my staffing team and always made me feel like I mattered and they were very personable. I stayed there for 3 months, detox was a bit uncomfortable and chaotic (but the staff was great, can't do much about the people you detox around), and PHP and IOP was better with their housing unit being apart from residential, more freedom, and better roommates at that point. Ashley, Stephanie, Kieta, were some of the BHTs who went above and beyond, as well as multiple others. The property could be cleaner, protocols could be better in certain situations, which is why i give 4 stars. Nothing is quite perfect and you do have many individuals causing disruption in and outside of class times - which is out of control, but i think the staff does the best they can in each situation. The food is gernerally good. You are also allowed to use your phone 24-7 after a three day blackout which was super convienent for me. However, the vapes you can use are only the ones they sell, which are VERY expensive and youre not allowed to bring in your own vapes or order anywhere else, even if theyre not open. Which in turn leads to people sneaking vapes in, which myself and others had to do (the place is easily accessible to clients sneaking on and off property, even for the best intentions, that could be an issue for others who definitely dont want to be there). The kitchen staff (Stephanie, Carla, Alyshia) were amazing as well and the cleaning staff too. For the 3 months I was there everyone made me feel welcome and safe. The program really focused on mental health and not /just/ taking drugs or alcohol away. Which I liked. Because in the end I found it to be seriously helpful of what I needed to focus on once I put the drink down. I appreciate the whole team of River Oaks and hope they can continue to help others the way I felt helped too. I am currently almost 6 months clean & sober (this is my 2nd time around after I was clean & sober for 11 months and then relapsed), I immediately got a job once i left the program, and I am looking into school. I believe getting to the root of the problem with mental health & addiction with this program, I can see myself and my future growing now. This place gave me hope at a low point, and I'm grateful for it.

I would like to update my review. I have now been out of river oaks for two years. When I went to them for the 6th time, they welcomed me back with open arms. I have managed to stay clean for almost 3 years since being released. I went in there with a dollar to my name, a bag of clothes and nothing else. I stayed for several months, as long as my wonderful counselor Lauren was able to get me. I think it was about 3 and a half months, I went from there to sober living, then into sponsees house as a roommate, to my own studio to now a one bedroom apartment in downtown st Pete. I can walk to the pier. Never, ever in my life did I think any of this is was possible. I started a business, just started a second business and it s just been absolutely amazing. I make it sound so wonderful, but it was the hardest thing(s) I ve ever had to do. I had to decide that I was done, I was left with 3 options: go through the suggested route of recovery (long term inpatient, sober living, and keep moving forward), die or end up in prison. I could go on and on about everything I have accomplished. I m sorry I m proud. But the bottom line here is these people will put you on the first right step and help you build that ground level foundation on which to build your recovery. They took me back so many times, even with me in the midst of me fighting my demons there and making stupid decisions that even I felt like they shouldn t take me back, they did and for that I m forever grateful. The staff understands the nature of the beast and is there to help you. Trip was the ceo or cfo while I was there, and that man really truly cares. They put up with soooo much from me, and I succeeded and I couldn t have done that without everyone there. I love all you guys and thank you for saving my life! (And for putting up with my shenanigans).

These people discharged me by simply leaving me at a homeless shelter with no available beds! A nice woman at the Shelter bought me an Uber and I had enough for a ticket to the institution that I want to go to, with $3 to spare. No place to sleep tonight. Flagrant disregard for my safety! My therapist and medical doctor saw me twice each in 6 weeks! My strengths and weaknesses on my discharge papers were explicitly false. Either they have half the man power they need, or no accountability? I can't call you. I have no phone service because you didn't let me work when I was there for IOP!
