Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which deliver rehabilitation to address both addiction and mental health concerns at the same time. Dual diagnosis is an extremely common circumstance for people involved with drug and alcohol abuse, as people who have mental health disorders frequently self medicate with alcohol and drugs to experience some form of short-term respite from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment counselors will help people using a comprehensive rehab plan all targeted at restoring and stabilizing mental, physical and emotional health while addressing drug abuse concerns. Offering a safe setting is essential to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can feel comfortable and remain free from distraction from things which could compromise their program and development. Treatment counselors will continue to work to spot environmental factors in the client's life such as negative people in their lives or other things which need to be addressed in order for the individual to stay mentally stable and sober t once they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral treatment that helps them develop more efficient coping methods so they are able to better deal with life situations more proficiently if they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of returning to drugs and alcohol as a possible solution.
