Treatment counselors will work to identify 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 be mentally stable and sober t whenever they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation that helps them develop more effective coping mechanisms so that they are better able to deal with life situations better when they depart dual diagnosis rehab instead of returning to drugs and alcohol as an inferior option.
