LGBT represents lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are programs which address the unique needs of these clients. Those who are LGBT can often feel alone, misunderstood, and seen as socially depraved. This is often a quite challenging or painful way to live, and leads many LGBT people to a lifestyle of drug abuse to alleviate this pain. Somebody that is LGBT might not feel safe in a traditional treatment program amongst individuals who aren't experiencing the same problems they may be experiencing in their lives. A LGBT rehab offers an environment which can be totally free of judgment, where LGBT clients can feel completely comfortable and safe revealing to their peers and rehabilitation counselors issues which have to be handled to be able to recover. Rehab counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients mend relationships with their loved ones, in the case their loved ones disagree with their sexual preference as is usually the case. This situation is certainly a frequent trigger for drug use, and is a good example of something which would be resolved in treatment. LGBT clients often just want to be accepted in their lives, and rehab will help them accept themselves and create confidence so that they can lead a wholesome life free from alcohol and drugs.
