Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which deliver rehab to address both mental health and addiction concerns concurrently. Dual diagnosis is an extremely prevalent situation for individuals involved with drug and alcohol abuse, as people who have mental health issues often medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to to feel some sort of short-term respite from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab counselors will help men and women through a detailed rehabilitation plan all directed at restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health while also dealing with drug abuse concerns. Offering a safe and secure setting is key to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can feel relaxed and remain undistracted from circumstances which may cut across their treatment plan and advancement. Treatment counselors will work to identify environmental issues in the client's life such as negative relationships or any other things that should be addressed in order for the individual to remain mentally healthy and abstinen t when they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation which will help them develop more efficient coping mechanisms so they are able to better deal with life circumstances more effectively if they leave dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to turning to drugs and alcohol as a possible solution.
