Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which provide rehabilitation to deal with both mental health and addiction concerns simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is an extremely common situation for individuals involved with substance abuse, as those that have mental health disorders often medicate themselves with drugs and alcohol to experience some kind of short-term respite from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab counselors will help people using a comprehensive rehab plan all geared towards restoring and replenishing mental, physical and emotional health while dealing with alcohol and drug abuse issues. Offering a safe setting is key so that dual diagnosis clients can be at ease and remain undistracted from circumstances which may compromise their treatment plan and progress. Rehab counselors will work to spot environmental issues in the client's life including negative relationships or other things that need to be addressed in order for the person to stay mentally stable and sober t whenever they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral treatment that helps them develop more effective coping methods so they are able to better deal with life circumstances more effectively after they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of returning to alcohol and drugs as a possible solution.
