Treatment counselors will continue to work to recognize environmental factors in the client's life such as negative people in their lives or any other things which should be addressed in order for the person to stay mentally stable and abstinen t once they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation that helps them develop more effective coping methods so they are better able to handle life circumstances more proficiently if they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of returning to alcohol and drugs as a possible solution.
