Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which deliver treatment to address both mental health and addiction issues simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is a very common situation for those involved with substance abuse, as people with mental health disorders frequently medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to experience some kind of temporary respite from their disorder. Within a dual diagnosis rehab, rehabilitation professionals will help people using a detailed rehab plan all targeted at restoring and replenishing mental, physical and emotional health while dealing with drug abuse issues. Offering a secure setting is vital to ensure dual diagnosis clients can be at ease and remain free from distraction from things that could compromise their treatment plan and progress. Rehabilitation counselors will continue to work to identify environmental factors in the client's life such as negative relationships or other things which need to be addressed in order for the person to remain mentally stable and sober t whenever they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral treatment which will help them develop more efficient coping methods so that they are better able to handle life situations more proficiently once they depart dual diagnosis rehab rather than turning to alcohol and drugs as a possible solution.
