Within a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment professionals will help men and women using a comprehensive rehabilitation plan all targeted at restoring and replenishing mental, physical and emotional health while addressing drug abuse problems. Offering a secure environment is vital to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can feel relaxed and remain free from distraction from things that may compromise their treatment plan and development. Rehab counselors will work to recognize environmental factors in the client's life including negative people in their lives or other things that must be addressed in order for the individual to be mentally stable and sober t whenever they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral rehab which helps them develop more efficient coping methods so that they are better able to deal with life situations more effectively after they depart dual diagnosis rehab instead of returning to drugs as a possible solution.
