Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which deliver treatment to address both mental health and addiction issues at the same time. Dual diagnosis is a very common situation for those involved in substance abuse, as individuals with mental health disorders often self medicate with alcohol and drugs to experience some kind of short-term respite from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab professionals can help men and women through a thorough rehab plan all aimed at restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health whilst addressing substance abuse concerns. Providing a safe environment is key so that dual diagnosis clients can feel at ease and remain free from distraction from things that could compromise their program and progress. Treatment counselors will work to spot environmental issues in the client's life such as negative relationships or any other things which must be addressed in order for the person to be mentally healthy and sober t after they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation that helps them develop more efficient coping methods so that they are better able to deal with life circumstances more proficiently after they leave dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to turning to drugs as a possible answer.
