Offering a safe setting is vital so that dual diagnosis clients can be comfortable and remain undistracted from circumstances which may cut across their treatment plan and advancement. Rehabilitation counselors will continue to work to spot environmental issues in the client's life such as negative people in their lives or other things that need to be addressed in order for the person to stay mentally stable and sober t after they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral treatment which helps them develop far better coping mechanisms so that they are able to better handle life circumstances more proficiently after they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of turning to drugs and alcohol as a possible solution.
