Athletes Recovery is a residential treatment facility located in Tampa, Florida, that serves professional, collegiate, active, and retired athletes dealing with substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. The program emphasizes a holistic approach to recovery, integrating fitness, nutrition, and counseling tailored to the unique experiences of athletes, including the sense of discipline and teamwork associated with sports culture. Its advisory board draws on leaders in sports and healthcare to support treatment planning and ongoing care, including a long-term, year-long aftercare component designed to support sustained recovery after an initial stay of 30, 60, or 90 days. The facility also collaborates with an athlete’s broader support system—family, team psychologists, coaches, agents, and trainers—to help ensure successful reintegration at home and in their athletic endeavors. In addition to addressing substance abuse and mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, the program attends to related issues like gambling and traumatic brain injury, providing a comprehensive treatment pathway within the hospitals and health care landscape. A recent partnership with Summit Behavioral Healthcare was announced in 2014 to support their expanding care offerings in the region.
