Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which deliver treatment to deal with both addiction and mental health concerns at the same time. Dual diagnosis is a very common situation for people involved with substance abuse, as people with mental health disorders often self medicate with alcohol and drugs to experience some form of temporary respite from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab professionals can help people through a comprehensive rehabilitation plan all targeted at restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health while addressing drug abuse issues. Providing a safe and secure setting is vital to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can feel relaxed and remain free from distraction from things that could cut across their program and progress. Rehab counselors will 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 individual to be mentally stable and abstinen t after they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation that helps them develop more effective coping methods so that they are better able to deal with life circumstances well after they depart dual diagnosis rehab rather than turning to drugs and alcohol as an inferior solution.
