Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which provide rehabilitation to deal with both mental health and addiction concerns simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is an extremely prevalent circumstance for those involved in substance abuse, as individuals with mental health problems often self medicate with alcohol and drugs to experience some kind of short-term respite from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab professionals can help men and women through a comprehensive rehabilitation plan all directed at restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health while addressing substance abuse concerns. Offering a secure setting is vital so that dual diagnosis clients can be at ease and remain undistracted from circumstances which may compromise their treatment plan and progress. Rehabilitation counselors will continue to work to spot environmental factors in the client's life such as negative relationships or other things that should be addressed in order for the person to be mentally healthy and sober t when they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral rehab which will help them develop more efficient coping methods so they are able to better handle life situations well if they leave dual diagnosis rehab rather than turning to drugs and alcohol as a possible option.
