Treatment counselors will work to recognize environmental factors in the client's life including negative people in their lives or any other things which have to be addressed in order for the individual to remain mentally healthy and abstinen t once they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehab which will help them develop more effective coping methods so that they are able to better deal with life circumstances well after they leave dual diagnosis rehab rather than returning to drugs and alcohol as an inferior solution.
