LGBT stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are facilities which address the unique needs of these clients. Those who are LGBT can often feel alone, not understood, and seen as socially depraved. This is often an extremely tough and painful way to live, and leads many LGBT individuals to a life of drug use to numb these feelings. Somebody who is LGBT might not exactly feel safe inside a conventional treatment program amongst people who aren't experiencing the same challenges they may be experiencing within their lives. A LGBT program provides an environment which is free from judgment, where LGBT clients can feel completely comfortable and safe divulging to their peers and rehabilitation counselors issues which must be handled so that they can recover. Rehab counselors within a LGBT rehab will help clients fix relationships with their family members, in the case their family disagree with their sexual choice as is usually the case. This situation is an extremely common trigger for drug abuse, which is an example of a thing that will be handled in treatment. LGBT clients often would like to be accepted in their lives, and rehab will help them accept themselves and create confidence to enable them to lead a healthy life without any drugs and alcohol.
