Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which deliver treatment to address both mental health and addiction concerns at the same time. Dual diagnosis is a very prevalent situation for people involved in substance abuse, as those that have mental health problems frequently medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to experience some form of short-term relief from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment counselors will help people through a detailed rehabilitation plan all aimed at restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health whilst dealing with substance abuse problems. Providing a secure environment is key so that dual diagnosis clients can feel at ease and remain undistracted from circumstances that may compromise their treatment plan and development. Treatment counselors will continue to work to identify environmental issues in the client's life including negative relationships or other things which need to be addressed in order for the individual to be mentally stable and abstinen t when they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation that helps them develop far better coping methods so they are able to better handle life circumstances more proficiently once they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of returning to drugs as a possible answer.
