Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which provide rehab to deal with both mental health and addiction concerns concurrently. Dual diagnosis is an extremely prevalent circumstance for those involved in drug and alcohol abuse, as those that have mental health disorders often self medicate with drugs and alcohol to experience some form of short-term relief from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab counselors will help individuals using a detailed treatment plan all aimed at restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health as well as addressing drug abuse issues. Offering a secure setting is key to ensure dual diagnosis clients can be relaxed and remain undistracted from circumstances 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 which should be addressed in order for the individual to be mentally stable and abstinen t after they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral rehab that helps them develop far better coping mechanisms so that they are able to better handle life situations well if they depart dual diagnosis rehab instead of turning to alcohol and drugs as a possible answer.
