Turn Your Life Around Counseling and Recovery Center (TYLA) - Tucson, Arizona

Sara Silverberg

Hello, if you are smart and are reading reviews of places to do screenings/ classes hopefully before going here I URGE you to go someplace else. I was surprised they gave me an insane amount of hours for my first and ever DUI (which is usually reserved for level 3 DUI’s which indicates a strong inclination of repeating offense; AKA for people with 2 or three or more DUI’s) Being given this many hours to someone for their first DUI was unheard of, at least from what my public attorney told me, additionally after talking to my public attorney I learned this place is notorious for assigning too many hours/ classes, and overcharging. I can’t imagine how much money I would have spent plus taking off work to go to these classes for like 4 months straight three times a week is crazy to assign. I’m not sure why they do this whether it is greed or blatant disregard for people, but it is sad. I am sorry for everybody that has been scammed by this place.

I've had the pleasure of knowing the people that run this organization, and even working with them in various volunteer and work capacities. Not only do they offer a wide variety of counseling and other services, but the owners and the staff really go above and beyond to show how they truly care and value the individual people and truly want to help and make a difference. Their compassion, understanding and overall helpful approach really and truly makes the biggest difference in helping a person overcome their challenges and get back on their feet.

It really gives me high hopes knowing this organization, and especially the people that run it and work there, are available to those struggling with dependency and addiction ?. This region is lucky to have Turn Your Life Around ?

All they want is your money. I had completed my alcohol screening and classes here. Unfortunately my screening was never reported to the DMV. I made several attempts to get a copy of my alcohol screening results, which they said they only keep hard copies in storage and would be a $140 charge to find the paperwork. Please take your hard earned money elsewhere.

Recommended a friend and heard very good things about TYLA! Very professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. Had nothing but nice things to say about the staff/facility. Would definitely recommend Turn Your Life Around counseling in the future to other friends and family!

I felt extremely disrespected everytime I needed to talk with them. Simple things were like pulling teeth and I felt like they went out of there way to be rude. If you don't have patience it would be hard to say the least. I brought my concerns up with my probation officer and he said this is common with this agency and don't worry about it. Even the courts know how they treat people and take everything they say with a grain of salt (thank God). And they never figured anything out, I had to hold there hand through it all. Shame to see the same things being said from years ago.

Everyone Is very nice and professional. The owner is a wonderful person she will guide you in the right direction. All the staff are very knowledgeable and educated on the topic they are educating clients. They have flexible schedules for people that work. Evening and weekends. Clients are able to have individual sessions if needed. The prices are very reasonable compared to other locations in Tucson.

Turn Your Life Around is so cool. The interns are helpful(and cute), Merrie at the front desk is funny, and the counselors really care about YOU and YOUR recovery. The group sessions are a lot of fun, and they didn't charge me as much as the other places I looked into for DUI education classes and therapy. Go to TYLA if you ever have problems with the court, or drug use, or anger management...or anything else. LOVE them.

I’m half way though my 26 classes of parenting…
Yeah you read that right.
Clearly I didn’t know anything then I spoke to my lawyer and therapist and it turns out parenting classes anywhere else are one and done.
There’s serval that are $100 and 6 hours in the evenings.
Super helpful/useful material.
Tyla is charging me $31 dollars a class. Due to “Covid” classes are online aka email they literally send you an email containing a power point that looks like it was made by a 12 year old. The email it’s self looks like a junky or child made it. This place should be shut down immediately and anyone who has been scammed by TYLA should sue/report them to the state.
This place is a joke, unprofessional, and disgusting for taking advantage of Covid to make a quick buck off of individuals trying to improve themselves.
Needless to say I paid the $100 and got my certificate in hand at the end of the incredible, helpful and useful parenting class at AMI behavioral health.
Strongly recommend the above for all your self improvement needs.
