About The Turning Point New Zealand

The Turning Point New Zealand is a private drug and alcohol rehabilitation centre providing detox and residential treatment for adults in Auckland. Founded in 2013, the centre offers personalised support for substance use disorders alongside co-occurring concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma and stress. Treatment brings together evidence-based therapy, holistic wellness and 12-Step principles. Individual counselling, group sessions, family therapy, relapse prevention and addiction education help guests understand the patterns behind substance use while developing practical skills for lasting recovery. Many team members draw on lived experience of addiction recovery, complementing the work of clinical, medical and counselling professionals. Daily meditation, restorative yoga, nutrition guidance and spiritual care support physical and emotional wellbeing throughout the programme. Treatment plans are shaped around each guest's history, health and recovery goals, with structured phases covering assessment, stabilisation, education, case management and discharge planning. The centre occupies a peaceful, redesigned homestead on 25 acres of rural land in East Auckland. Comfortable bedrooms, gardens, walking areas and relaxing outdoor spaces create a private, homelike setting where guests can step away from daily pressures and concentrate on healing.
