Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which deliver rehab to deal with both mental health and addiction issues concurrently. Dual diagnosis is a very common circumstance for people involved in drug abuse, as individuals with mental health issues often medicate themselves with drugs and alcohol to experience some kind of short-term relief from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehabilitation counselors will help men and women through a comprehensive treatment plan all geared towards restoring and replenishing mental, physical and emotional health as well as dealing with drug abuse concerns. Offering a safe and secure setting is key to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can be relaxed and remain undistracted from circumstances that could compromise their program and development. Rehabilitation counselors will continue to work to identify environmental issues in the client's life such as negative people in their lives or any other things which must be addressed in order for the person to stay mentally stable and sober t once they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral treatment which will help them develop more effective coping methods so they are able to better handle life circumstances better once they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of turning to alcohol and drugs as a possible answer.
