Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which provide rehabilitation to handle both addiction and mental health concerns at the same time. Dual diagnosis is an extremely prevalent circumstance for people involved with drug abuse, as those that have mental health problems frequently medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to experience some kind of temporary relief from their disorder. Within a dual diagnosis rehab, rehabilitation counselors can help people using a detailed rehabilitation plan all aimed at restoring and stabilizing mental, physical and emotional health as well as addressing alcohol and drug abuse issues. Providing a safe and secure environment is vital so that dual diagnosis clients can feel relaxed and remain undistracted from circumstances that may cut across their treatment plan and development. Treatment counselors will continue to work to spot environmental factors in the client's life including negative relationships or other things which have to be addressed in order for the person to be mentally healthy and abstinen t when they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral treatment that helps them develop more efficient coping methods so that they are better able to handle life circumstances better after they depart dual diagnosis rehab rather than turning to drugs as a possible answer.
